One year and seven months. Thats how long it's been since I posted about reading Donald Miller's book
A Million Miles in a Thousand Years. I reread that post and caught the last line..."making my life worth writing about". Well, here we go.
We are homeschooling our three older kids this year. This is a first for us. It's going well, but I rank it in level of difficulty right up there with childbirth. This is way harder than I thought. I salute the ladies who have been doing this since the good old days. May the force be with you.
We are also taking our kids on a mission trip to Lima, Peru in exactly one month from today. I have dreamt about this for years. I cannot believe we are really about to embark on a dream being realized. I am both ecstatic and terrified.
The books that have marked my life in the past few years have come to define they way I parent and relate to my kids and family. I have somehow met and been able to connect with all the authors of those books in the past year. That is a remarkable feat considering I don't get out much with four kids.
I have been given the honor of having an amazing group of ladies that both ground me and lift me up. I have an adorable husband that I am still madly in love with. I give honor and Glory to Him to makes me whole each day.
I have not made a blog post in at least a year, maybe more. This is me waking up and saying HELLO WORLD! I am back!!
