"For you and I are past our dancing days"

A have neglected my poor readers anything new (all three of you) to read, and for that I apologize. I have had a tremendous amount of "life stuff" going on, and I can't even begin to tell you about it all. Mother's Day was great-- got to see both my sister, brother, and their significant others. I think my momma felt loved so that was all that mattered. We have had a lot of stuff going on with our family though so please keep us all in your prayers. Good stuff though. Just lots going on.
Not to mention I tried to move all my stuff (minus furniture- except my needed tiny desk-thank you matthew!) this past weekend, and now I'm in the trenches with Sir Wiliam Shakespeare trying to wrap my head around 4 plays in two weeks with projects, papers, and other assignments "oh my". Did I mention that I'm like one of the oldest students in the class and I think I forgot what was cool to wear as a college kid? I shouldn't have showered, nor put on any mascara, and I forgot my big pearl earings! :)   I tease.... it's just taking some getting used to. Oh how I miss Shepherd Center and my girls at Colonial Grand right now.
Well... I must leave you with a perfect Romeo and Juliet quote as I am about to dive into the infamous play along with Othello, Titus Andonicus, and A Midsummer Night's Dream.... Wish me Luck!!! I am going to need a great deal of coffee to get me through this one!
"For you and I are past our dancing days." William Shakespeare, Romeo and Juliet 1.5

Confessions

I have had so many people thank me for my honesty on this blog lately. I haven't really thought about my level of truthfulness until those remarks of gratitude were given. I think I naturally wear my heart on my sleeve, and thanks to my upbringing, I often hear the term TMI, which just means I'm obviously not scared to express myself. However, I also believe that when you are going through something difficult, it's much easier to be raw and real in front of others, even complete strangers. Often times, it is these "real" moments that bridge the gap between hearts and allow us to live truth. I must confess, this marathon is really all over the place. It's like I hit mile 7, and I can't believe I'm only at mile 7! This past weekend, I felt covered in prayer, peace, and love. Matthew and I enjoyed a much needed date night, our little Levi enjoyed a quiet and restful weekend, and our big boy had a blast at our neighborhood Easter Egg Hunt.  I really ju...

Joy in Pain

There is pain in this world. It comes in different forms. Physical pain, emotional pain, frustrating pain, confused pain, displaced pain, short-lived pain, numbing pain, excruciating pain, sincere pain, unexpected pain. Yet, through it all, there is joy. How? Where? Why is there joy in a world filled with such pain? Is is true joy? Is it fabricated or medicated joy? Is it temporary joy or will it fade with the next whisper of pain? No. I have felt a joy that far outweighs my pain. It's a joy that doesn't make sense mixing with a pain that culminates in reality. It's a joy that couldn't be concocted by even the most elaborate of artists. As I've experienced some of the most intense physical pain during some of the most intense emotional pain, I have noticed and experienced some of the purest forms of joy and peace that cannot be watered down by logic. We lost our second child this week. At just seven weeks old, our precious baby gets to escape a world o...
