This week I received 2 blog posts back to back where the authors shared that they were prego. Or preggers. Or just plain pregnant :-). I thought it was unique that I would have 2 people share this news via blogs of which I am subscribed. One blogger communicated her hesitancy in sharing the news… Continue reading Pregnant With Purpose

Who’s That Girl?
She walks with an element of confidence that is undeniable. So focused on her mission she hardly notices the stares of her admirers. Even still, she can feel them as she makes her way in 3 inch heels, pencil skirt and killer smile to her ultimate destination: success in life. Accessories of scarves, bracelets and… Continue reading Who’s That Girl?
Even if He Doesn’t
I was on the phone with a good friend discussing her current romantic interest. She shared her concerns, her desires and her hopes that this was “it”. A 30-something virgin she never intended on waiting this long for marriage and kids and well, sex. So she was ready to get the show on the road.… Continue reading Even if He Doesn’t
A Glimpse Into My Day
I leave class 30 minutes early because I finished my practice tax return in record time. The CPA teaching the class is impressed. I’m just grateful. Seeing as how I registered a month late for the class, I’m totally relying on Jesus for me to get up to speed on the material. As usual He’s… Continue reading A Glimpse Into My Day
The Unadulterated Truth
It’s so easy to glamorize the highlights of life. You know. The milestones. The celebrations. The good times. Take my life for example. I have a really stellar social life. It’s ridiculous really. Every weekend there is something to do and someone to hang with. I’m often overwhelmed with the pull I feel to spread… Continue reading The Unadulterated Truth
HAPPY ANNIVERSARY!
So this month marks my 2 year anniversary with this little blog :-). It was definitely NOT love at first sight, I’ll tell you that much! Being a “writer” was never on my agenda. Though always an avid reader, I never intentionally pursued writing. I imagined that maybe “one day” I’d come out with a… Continue reading HAPPY ANNIVERSARY!
My Perfect Life
I’m sitting in one of my two favorite spots for “me time”. The chair. The overstuffed, enlarged, papa san chair. Drinking the first round of hot tea with my warm fleece draped over my lap. Perfect. I look through the open doorway of my bedroom, to the living room. Clean. Everything is clean. Selah. Nothing… Continue reading My Perfect Life
Random Things About Me
So my friend had this idea for us (me, her and our other friends in common) to share our “weaknesses/imperfections” and how those things are a part of us, and hopefully how they can be viewed as “good”. And I decided to post mine on this here blog, because, well…why not? :-). Plus, I think… Continue reading Random Things About Me
To Know Him in the Now
I guess when you’re over 30 you learn that the ideal of the 20s doesn’t exist. You learn that maybe somewhere between “here” (I’m young, free and anything is possible) and “there” (great career, great marriage, and 2.5 kids with a white picket fence) lies a gap that is filled with “now” (there is waiting… Continue reading To Know Him in the Now
Waiving My Flag
I was telling a friend today, I feel as if I am embarking on a new level of selflessness. I read my description at the opening of this blog and how I talk about “dying to self”, and I did die to self. But there seems to be levels of this dying stuff. The truth… Continue reading Waiving My Flag
