Hello again and {Mama Braggin' Monday}

I know it has been a while since you've heard from me here on the blog. I'm around. Just very busy.

I have so much to tell you and catch you up on, but having the time to sit and write is just so difficult right now.

This next week and a half or so, in particular, are very busy. A committee at church, of which I am a part, is in the middle of some big decisions and we will be meeting 3 times over the next week or so. That's a lot of time away from home and away from my family. But I believe God will redeem that time as I am doing what He called me to do on this committee.

Amen.

Just know that I miss you right now, blogosphere.

So, until I can get back to some kind of normal around here, I thought I'd share with you my favorite Christmas present I received this year.




Mike took the kids to our local pottery painting place and they made me this awesome mug with their handprints on it. It sits so proudly on my desk and I use it for water because I don't want to see how bad coffee would stain it (because then that would make me wonder about my teeth).

I love putting my hand up next to theirs and seeing the difference in size. It reminds me of my job to take them by the hand each day and lead and guide them.

It's my favorite Christmas present.
