Dear Reader,
Hi! I’m sorry I haven’t written in a while. I actually thought of not renewing my blog, but TJ said he didn’t think I should shut it down yet. There was a time I wanted to fully pursue writing. Now I want to pursue living and mothering and learning to hear my Good Shepherd’s voice, with a side of writing. What is helping me so much right now is watching The Chosen, reading my Psalter every day, rereading Mere Christianity, and being consistent with this new Bible story book that TJ got for the kids recently.
I’m praying the Modeh Ani - the “I give thanks” prayer - every day when I wake up (I learned it from The Chosen). I’m working on not minding as much what happens in my eating life - not having to have things so perfectly orchestrated that I close myself off to what life wants to ask of me. I’m also being curious about the discontent I have noticed in myself when I am in a state of “being” with my kids. I’m so glad I’m still here, still a mom, with still more time to grow and show up. I’m very thankful that God and TJ continue to faithfully fill in gaps where I lack. And TJ made sure I didn’t lack a Milk Bar cake for Mother’s Day yet again this year. What a treat!
Love, Ginger
