Are you in a good mood tonight?
This music helps. Since our external hard drive died in November I hadn't made a new playlist of favorite songs for singing to Jesus. A few days ago I finally got to it, and it's helping my fitful mind tonight. "To you I sing, I dance, rejoice in this divine romance" ... turn to "Mighty, awesome, wonderful is the holy cross..." -speaking truth to ( Read more... ) -
Being spoken to in dreams has given me pause...
I wrote this Tuesday morning, I think, and never finished ( Read more... ) -
Fresh Start
Well, I've done it finally and splurged on a paid account. All my scrapbook photos and icons are accessible again. The ones of tiny Sophie are going to make me weep, but that's not a difficult threshold to achieve, especially these days. I'm pregnant with our second child, a baby boy named Daniel.

It was kind of obligatory. I've been ( Read more... ) -

Oh no. I wasted so much time today. No más ( Read more... ) -
Sweetness.
Today marks the first day of Sophie's life that her hair has been put in a braid. Not giving it much thought this morning as I calmed down her bedhead with a little water and a comb, I wondered if it was long enough. I wove the three short sections and brought together a small dream of mine. Thank you, little daughter. I imagined doing this so ( Read more... ) -
DRIVING OUT OF LAS VEGAS
I've done nothing to prepare, and this afternoon I leave for an overnight retreat to St. George by myself (edit: without Louie and Sophia). I made up my mind I wasn't going until two weeks ago when I changed it. This morning I feel slightly regretful. I will miss my girl to a great extent. And also, I feel a twinge of... maybe guilt... because for ( Read more... )
