Circling Jericho: Jars
http://circlingjericho.blogspot.com/2012/07/jars.html
My spiritual journey as it relates to mothering my children and being a wife and family member. Sunday, July 8, 2012. That this year has been a little overwhelming. Although I am starting to think that this is just the new normal for us. With nine children, that gives us eleven people worth of possible drama and crisis in the family. So even if only a few of them are doing their share of it, that keeps us hopping. Yet now his creditor has come to take my two children into servitude.”. View my complete pr...

Circling Jericho: Where am I now?
http://circlingjericho.blogspot.com/2011/08/where-am-i-now.html
My spiritual journey as it relates to mothering my children and being a wife and family member. Sunday, August 7, 2011. Where am I now? Writing that last post. Left me with a lot to think about. God is WITH me. I really felt the need to just spend some time with that idea and let it sink in a bit. What does that mean to me in my life? What does that mean to me today. How could I do any of the things that I wanted to do like write or read or make rosaries while under this extreme work load? Are you seeing...

Circling Jericho: My Morning
http://circlingjericho.blogspot.com/2013/06/my-morning.html
My spiritual journey as it relates to mothering my children and being a wife and family member. Friday, June 28, 2013. Since early last summer, I have been waking up early. Well, with all these kids, I have been getting up early for years, but this year I made it an intentional time of bible study and prayer, as well as planning my day so I could act. On it instead of falling into a pattern of reacting. Here is how my morning goes (or tries to):. For Sunday Readings), Topical Bible Study Notes. Start get...

Circling Jericho: But What Will *I* Eat?
http://circlingjericho.blogspot.com/2010/07/but-what-will-i-eat.html
My spiritual journey as it relates to mothering my children and being a wife and family member. Monday, July 26, 2010. But What Will *I* Eat? Yesterday's Gospel was the story of the multiplication of the loaves and fishes from John 6. Our priest gave an excellent homily about faith, but later in the afternoon as I worked on our budget I meditated on a different aspect of the story. Andrew says, "There is a boy here who has five barley loaves and two fish; but what good are these for so many? That was whe...

Circling Jericho: Control and Surrender, Part 1
http://circlingjericho.blogspot.com/2011/06/control-and-surrender-part-1.html
My spiritual journey as it relates to mothering my children and being a wife and family member. Wednesday, June 15, 2011. Control and Surrender, Part 1. I gave a retreat this past weekend, my first, and my writing for this has been such a journey, it seemed worthy of including here. It certainly has been a part of my wandering in circles around my personal Jericho. I’m not sure if control brings peace or just the illusion of peace. Sometimes I think I would settle for an illusion of peace! So it occurred...

Circling Jericho: MOVING!
http://circlingjericho.blogspot.com/2013/01/sorry-to-shake-things-up-around-here.html
My spiritual journey as it relates to mothering my children and being a wife and family member. Sunday, January 13, 2013. Sorry to shake things up around here, but I wanted to let you know that I am moving Circling Jericho. It just seemed silly not to host it myself, since I already host other blogs. All the old posts are there, and some new ones too. Head on over and bookmark/follow Circling Jericho. That is where the new posts will be. Thank you and God Bless!

Circling Jericho: Distraction
http://circlingjericho.blogspot.com/2012/07/distraction.html
My spiritual journey as it relates to mothering my children and being a wife and family member. Sunday, July 1, 2012. Writing this has been a little ironic. Phones ringing, kids running back and forth, needing a drink of water, spilling water, peeing pants, give me a ride, Mom can I., Mom he just., {crash), {waahh}, or the worst - silence. Luke 10:38-42 As they continued their journey he entered a village where a woman whose name was Martha welcomed him. She had a sister named Mary [who] sat beside t...

Circling Jericho: Just Keep Swimming
http://circlingjericho.blogspot.com/2012/01/just-keep-swimming.html
My spiritual journey as it relates to mothering my children and being a wife and family member. Sunday, January 1, 2012. I'd like to jump back in here without mentioning just how long I have been away, but I just can't help myself. When I pulled up the page and it told me the last post was in August. I just couldn't believe how much time had slipped by. To give myself a little credit, I did have a baby in that time and since then my days have been busy. The next time he knows that I am going to step back...

My spiritual journey as it relates to mothering my children and being a wife and family member. Sunday, June 19, 2011. Control and Surrender, Part 2. It's Sunday again, and if you read Part 1. Of this series, then you know how I am feeling. There is so much I want to get done this week, and I am feeling the need to sit down and schedule it all out. I have great new books to read ( I Believe in Love: A Personal Retreat Based on the Teaching of St. Therese of Lisieux. And The Night Is Far Spent. So persona...
