Today was 8th Grade Day

It was not 2nd grade breakfast day.

And at 8th grade day, I got to go see a movie.

And while standing in the quiet 10:30am movie theater foyer talking with another mom and waiting for some 8th grader to buy something unnecessary, I heard this comment from a lone young man- who was not with our group and definately not an 8th grader.

"Woo Hoo, I'm not alone today."

And I thought,
"I am glad it is 8th grade day and my life is my life and that I don't normally go see movies in the morning and that I won't miss the 2nd grade breakfast because I mixed my days up and that I have friends to stand around and talk to while waiting for some 8th grader to buy something unnecessary and most importantly - I'm glad we brought that young man some joy."

Little Answer to Prayer

It's been a very long time since I've written anything on here. I've been feeling the call to come back. I feel more in control of my time and life and I'm remembering how much joy this tiny domain had brought me. Last night, I thought I'd be losing it.

I said, "I know it's probably silly, but I think you want me to come back to this and continue my little work. If that's what you want, please help me find a way to get this thing renewed and back on track."

Tonight I got inspiration. I was able to see what I was doing wrong, and fix it. Becomingversed.com is back up. I need to get back up. This little experience felt like a littl…

Gross Summer Bokeh

If you'd like to know what "bokeh" is, go here. And if you don't want to go there- it's a form of photography. If you'd like to lecture the child who forgot her sunscreen, please leave a comment. If you'd like to have breakfast for lunch and dinner (we call it "blinner") or clean the kitchen, come on over. _______________________________________________________________________________
And explaination of "blinner." Our church starts crazy early. And, I am lazy and only like to fix one main meal on Sundays. So-this particular Sunday we had "blinner" and snacks when they all got hungry again later. Oh, and we usually only call it "blinner" when we are having what's know as traditional breakfast items when it's the middle of the day. Other days It's just an early dinner and mom's off the hook the rest of the day. ________________________________________________________________________________
And, If you are grossed out-sorry. Ple…
