It is all about Perspective.
As I heard a comment TWICE in ONE day. .....
I had to see the Perspective.
What you say was this comment?
Oh, I'm a gonna tell you.
(PS. YOU, I am not upset. I swear)
"Oh, My cousin is due in April and she is about as big as you". (I'm due in JUNE!!!)
Followed a few hours later by:
"How far along are you? about 6 months or so?" (new acquaintance)
Me: "huh, uh, well, nope. Ah, well about 6 LEFT"
Hey people. This is the SIXTH time I have stretched out my tiny housing unit.
(but this need not apply, I was just as huge the first time LOL)
God truly does make all kinds. You will all get quite a kick out of just HOW big I can get.
I don't mind. I really don't. If. I. Did. I. Would. NOT. have. Done it. again!
Think about that. ... (no, not that much).
You think I don't know!
If I did not want to HOUSE another HUMAN ...... I would not be.
As I tried to dress the new baby-bump for a delightful wedding. (the same day as the Huge comments)
I struggled to find something "flattering".
I simply have Nothing to wear.
HELLLLO!
No one cares what I wear to the wedding. IT IS NOT ABOUT ME>
Dear Bride. It is about YOU.
I am so glad You invited us to your special day. I do not care what I wear. I know it is your day.
My sweet husband and my delightful daughter reassured me that I looked "fine". (geez, thanks)
It is not about my wardrobe,
It is not about my months, (size)
It is not about ME.
What is YOUR perspective?
Is it about YOU?
Does it always have to be about you?
Do you put others first?
Is it really true that you have nothing to wear?
PERSPECTIVE>
To GOD be the GLORY for great things HE has done.
God bless the marriage of Luke and Sarah T.
It was beautiful!!!!!!!!!!!!
and I did have something to wear.
I did look "fine".
Actually, I looked pretty good.
Confidence is pretty.

Black pages
As I posted my first NEW post..
I saw my BLOG background is Black.
It seems almost fitting.
It sounds a bit morbid.
HOWEVER>>>>>>
New beginnings come from darkness.
but after the darkness.......
comes the ......
LIGHT>>>>
Our new Adventure!
You just never know what life will throw at you yet.
I used to write.
I did.
I used to journal. I used to "blog". I used to.
Then I had a miscarriage.
I don't know what happen to the writing. The writing stopped.
Was it that I could not write it down?
Where had my writing gone?
I have very few posts since Levi was born but the writing stopped before that.
My miscarriage was in November of 2007.
Yes, it has been a few years.
Where has my writing gone?
I can, in no way, get caught up.
So here we begin anew.
My newest adventure. ..... Lord, if you are willing, May I have my writing back?
