speechless
Good Friday is here, and my fever is gone. I am so thankful - congested, but thankful. Soon I'll be hurling my beleaguered self to IKEA for birthday goodies for two worthy kids and picking up groceries to whip up some carrot cake cupcakes. I'm jacked up on tea and hoping to catch up a little today.
But my heart is heavy for two families at my church: One family lost their infant son, here too early and gone an hour later. Two other bitty kids lost their mother, dead in her sleep at 26. 26.
I'm sitting here with stationary, not knowing what to say. I just don't know.
And as I fret to get it right - on paper, for Easter, for their birthdays - my life feels so full. I get to raise my children, even when they make me nuts.
Busy never felt so good.

Have a wonderful Easter and revel in knowing He Is Risen!!!!
And I am quite glad you're feeling better, through no help from me...Please forgive my lack of care & concern this week.
We're so looking forward to Monday's festivities!
It really doesn't matter what you write, just knowing someone is thinking of them is often times enough!
Heroine?
Heroin?
AWESOME!
I am, too. Flatulent, I mean.
I hang one of those pine trees for the car, from my beltloop... it helps.
Or so I think!

So, so true...for our many blessings, reflected each day in our children - no matter that they can also make us insane.
