Random picture of me (pregnant with Asher 2 yrs. ago) in front of the carport that we *knocked down*. I post this in HOPES that we get snow soon!!!!My computer still isn't working well...but I'm giving it a try. You know, typing and not seeing ANY words come up until 30 seconds later. About to drive me crazy, but eh, I figure I'm always up for a challenge. ;)
So here's a random snippet of my life right now:
I've been emailing back and forth with "one of you" guys in blogdom since August. You can identify yourself if you want to, but I didn't feel the liberty to without asking you.
It's been crazy!! In the best possible way, of course. *wink*
At first, I'd say we bonded because of our love of sarcasm. *At least that's the way I remember it* But we pretty quickly started to discuss the deeper things. Questions about why I believe in prophesy, a prayer language, spontaneous healings, etc. Disagreeing a little here and there...then finding common ground once more...talking it out on the phone...asking a booty load (wink) of questions and telling different personal stories...
AND I just have to say that I LOVE it. It's been one of the sweetest gifts AND suprises for me in blogdom. Your friendship.
I love that you feel comfortable asking, disagreeing, and asking again. Your heart to search out the Word...to not continue at the same place just because it's known and comfortable...encourages me. inspires me. excites me. I love our new-found friendship. I can't wait to see where God takes it.
And to see if what other friendships he surprises me with. :)

Friends here is blogdom has been such a sweet surprise!
I would so agree on the fun friends and people - from all over the place (and bloggy land makes it all seem so "near").
Blog world has been a great way to meet some super awesome Christian gals!I totally agree!
Oh, and my computer has been doing the same thing. What's up with that? ~K
We got snow yesterday!
It is fun to make friends, I must agree.
It's Me, It's Me!!!!
Ok...it's not me! But I figured I would try to end the suspense!
It is great that you have made such great friends. I have been with a group of moms who had babies in December 05 since we all found out we were pregnant and it is nice to have a group that I know "could" be going through the same trials with a 2 year old that I am. So...I totally know what you are talking about.
Oh and a side note...we are supposed to have rain and snow showers tomorrow...but there is a HUGE piles of leaves that I should get off my butt and get to first!
So...I am hoping the snow stays away for a bit!
I have a friend that I met through a Twins Message Board and it is one of the most special friendships EVER! We corresponded through e-mail for over a year before we started talking on the phone. She has been a great accountability partner and I am so very thankful for her!
I'm glad you have found such a special friendship through blogging.
We got snow this morning! The kids are super excited. Has it worked for you yet?!?!:)
Blogging is a great way to keep up with friends. Its so much fun for me to read your updates. I love the pictures as you see the girls growing up so fast.
The other day...Yes I did see flurries. Mind you I only saw them in the air. No white ground or even a remnant of a snowflake remained that day. But it was finally starting to feel like winter. And the deeper I move south the more I appreciate these brief glimpses of winter.
I am working hanging out in the ED today. Its been steady but not horrible.
You made this post weeks ago, and I've meant to "fess up" that I've been reading your blog most every day. I'm grateful for you...it's very funny what an answer to a prayer for a homeschool mentor you've been. I simply stumbled onto your blog about 4 months ago, after "google-ing" both "Motherhood Maternity" (like the store) and Salina, KS. Your posts have shaped how I view my life these days. I think sometime I'd love to have a more "two-sided" conversation...as thus far it's been me benefiting from your wisdom :) So, thanks!
