Spouseisms: April 2014
http://spouseisms.blogspot.com/2014_04_01_archive.html
Wednesday, April 23, 2014. 5 Things Homeschoolers Do That Are Not Awesome. I love, love, love the homeschooling community. Love it. These are some of the most inclusive bunch of independents you'll ever meet. Most of us love to include newbies and prospectives in our lives and convince them "You can do it! But only if you want to! And it will look different than any other homeschool. Is our motto. Patience is not a prerequisite! Someone say, "Amen! Right now. Say it! People takin' Deuteronomy 6 seriously?

Spouseisms: When the Pastor Says, "Greet the people around you..."
http://spouseisms.blogspot.com/2013/11/how-to-handle-greeting-time-at-church.html
Saturday, November 9, 2013. When the Pastor Says, "Greet the people around you.". I rejoiced with those who said to me,. Let us go to the House of the Lord! We've learned a few things in the past year and a half about being the newbies. Not the least of which is how to better handle the greeting time at church. When the pastor says, "Let's all take a moment to greet the people around you and tell them you are glad they are here today", I handle this much differently than I did before. I did this to peopl...

Monday, July 28, 2014. Snippets and Photos and Not-So-Breaking News. Sunset Paddle in Englewood, Florida. Sweet Blog Reader's O'Mine. I was hoping that would sound like Guns 'N Roses, so this post is a fail from the start. Read on at your own risk. My last post was June 3rd. I don't even know. So much has been going on I don't even know where to begin. I JUST, as in this very moment, noticed I didn't even finish our road trip series. From May. Seriously? The ever-faithful iPhone photo dump. We got to spe...

Spouseisms: Moving Stories & the Absurdity of Grace.
http://spouseisms.blogspot.com/2014/08/the-absurdity-of-grace.html
Sunday, August 31, 2014. Moving Stories and the Absurdity of Grace. So, remember a few weeks ago, we left Houston. Bound for our Florida home once again? Well, we made it. We closed on a townhouse in a town we had only ever been to a handful of times,. Starting about 6 weeks ago. Seriously. We were sold on this cutesy little coastal town and these sunsets:. Talk about 'fire in the sky'. We are absolutely loving our new town. It is small (population of about 35k),. It's the absurdity of grace. Nor do I wa...

Spouseisms: Rainy Days and Littles
http://spouseisms.blogspot.com/2015/07/rainy-days-and-littles.html
Tuesday, July 28, 2015. Rainy Days and Littles. This is right now. Central Florida is on about day 8 (or 100, what's the difference! Of her Sun Rebellion. While there have been moments in which she has teased us with a break in the clouds, it has rained much more than those afternoon showers she's famous for. A little tease of color? If I seem a little blah, it's because I'm Vitamin D deficient. And by deficient, I mean pale. I'm really thinking about our local moms of Littles right now. What if your roa...

Spouseisms: Why I Don't Live for my Kids
http://spouseisms.blogspot.com/2013/05/why-i-dont-live-for-my-kids.html
Tuesday, May 21, 2013. Why I Don't Live for my Kids. I once overheard a woman on her cell phone talking about her children making her feel guilty about something. Of course, I only heard one side of the conversation, but at one point she replied to her caller, "I know! I absolutely LIVE for my kids! Now, I don't know this lady, so I can't say if she was speaking hyperbolically or not, but this facially-expressive non-eavesdropper raised my eyebrows to the sky! All that and I do not live for them. That's ...

Spouseisms: March 2014
http://spouseisms.blogspot.com/2014_03_01_archive.html
Wednesday, March 26, 2014. 13 Promises for the 13 Year-Old. Nicknames: Ellie Mae, Megalicious, Meghan-heimer-snickel-fritz, McGillicutty. The Big Sister turns thirteen today. I'm so excited for her. I'm not the mom that cried at kindergarten or cries at these milestones, I'm genuinely excited for her. Why won't they still let me dress them? I do, however, get a sense of urgency. So many things. So little time. 1 The more you know Truth, the more you'll recognize lies. Plaster your memory with the Word.
