So Here's The Thing...
I used to blog all the time. I used to journal. I used to be and do things that don't fit in a Facebook status. I stopped blogging because I started caring about who was reading. It's a constant struggle with stupidity with me, the absurd notion that everyone is watching what I'm doing and judging me by it.
So here is what is true: I am a follower of Jesus Christ. I am the mother to the most beautiful children to ever grace the planet. I am the wife to an incredible man, who I managed to snag by manipulating him with decent coffee a long time ago. I am not a perfect wife, mother, or Christian. Most times it's adequate, and that might be generous. I am a writer who forgets to write, a missionary who is sitting at home, a dreamer with a fierce logical streak, a rebel and a rule-follower. I'm sarcastic and snotty and sappy, loyal and lazy, an optimist who continually manages to mess up. I'm opinionated about almost everything, and often with no good reason. I'm bewildered by the grace of God in my life. I've decided not to write for you, though if you'd like to read it then I'm good with that. I want to write because it's something I love. I seem to have forgotten little bits of me all over the place, and this is one I'd like to pick up.

Leah couldn't get this to work on her blog so I thought I'd try.
Plus, she gave me a sweet compliment and that goes miles with me.

I tried seeing it on Leah's blog, but couldn't. Thanks Mel.

By the way...a little compliment goes a long way? You are such a great niece. Will you meet me sometime at the Beach Hut for coffee?

1:24 PM

How about this Leah? You get a blog on blogger so that I can comment on it? I think that sounds like a better plan...
7:51 AM
ok, i'm contemplating it... i might do it... but then what about all the pics and stuff i have on my old one? i hate to lose those... ya, i'm a packrat... maybe once i get my computer working at my new house then i will be able to do it... i don't know why you guys can't comment, that's weird...

I second what Becky says.

I agree, Leah. You definitely need a Blogger account. You don't have to delete your old one. You can keep the pictures on there, just start here anew. :D
9:56 AM
i'll work on it
