Isaiah 50:10 Who among you fears the Lord and obeys the word of his servant? Let him who walks in the dark, who has no light, trust in the name of the Lord and rely on his God. And an August update: Josh has a TA (a half-time teaching assistantship).  The QE is over.  It’ll [...]

Hi!  I tried something new today.  I didn’t turn on the computer ’til my Bible was read.  Which means I didn’t turn it on ’til 3:30.  Don’t get me wrong, I started reading it at 10. Any-who, I’m finally done selecting and editing pictures for your viewing pleasure! (There was much nursing, directing, no-no-ing, good-job-ing, [...]

Your thumbs run up my smile lines, your palms span ‘cross my cheeks. Your cries fade into hiccups, your breaths turn even and deep. The heat of your hands speak ‘love’ to me, as they tightly hug my face. The heat of my cheeks speak ‘safe’ to you, that I’ll never leave this place. At [...]

Yeah, it’s hot, and there’s the residual connotation from my school days that keeps me from loving this month, but that’s not really why it leaves such a bitter taste in my mouth these days. August is the month of the unknown. August is when we find out if Josh has a job. Every year. [...]

I’m so terribly behind on pictures.  These are from last month: Bummin’ with Daddy on the couch. That was actually from the fourth of July, or so the date in Picasa tells me. So that picture is over a month old. He’s a lot bigger now. They heart their brother. I am very proud of [...]

I had the worst food and the worst service I’d ever had at a fast food restaurant last night. At least it was free. A few months back KFC offered a .pdf coupon to try their new grilled chicken for free.  Silly them, don’t they know people can print unlimited .pdf’s?!  So when they got [...]
