Soul's Expression: What Happened?
http://souls-expression.blogspot.com/2014/06/what-happened.html
Tuesday, June 17. So I've had to take the StrengthsFinder 2.0 quiz a couple of times during my profesional life. I can't remember which ones tend toward, but I remember the gist: I always am asking "What Happened? As a major function of my life. And, as is par for the course for this blog, it has been 2 months since I last posted. So, What Happened? Well, April is a crazy month in Academia, as since Adam I live in a residence hall, our life got increasingly crazy. Had so much meaning? Charis and I slept ...

Soul's Expression: September 2013
http://souls-expression.blogspot.com/2013_09_01_archive.html
Thursday, September 26. Wow, what a month. Well, I can't believe I'm typing out a post. The last three weeks have been full of ups and downs and lots of crying - for both baby and me! The entire birth story and pictures are here: www.santiagochronicle.blogspot.com . I won't repeat the entire story, and Adam does a better job of writing, anyway. But for those of you who are curious, that is where we're doing the great majority of posting about Charis. Ok, I couldn't resist a couple of pictures! Charis ado...

Mom-a-thon: January 2011
http://momathon.blogspot.com/2011_01_01_archive.html
Because you know it's really a contest. Wednesday, January 19, 2011. This self-awareness, like most, has pluses and minuses. 1 I now know I must be more tentative with budding friendships where the other party is just a tad too zealous. 2 It is clear to me that my family is not nearly as crazy as I had generally believed. 3 Hmmthat's all I've got so far. Now, the minuses:. 1 My general easy going acceptance of people right when I meet them is akin to a target on my forehead to loonies. Hate this one.).

Soul's Expression: February 2015
http://souls-expression.blogspot.com/2015_02_01_archive.html
Sunday, February 8. What 40 days of prayer and parenting a small human does. At the turn of the year, I was in a pretty miserable place. You see, Christmas was hard. It didn't feel like Christmas, for one. Which may have made it a little easier to have not returned to the states to see family, because it didn't feel. During that time, we started reading Prayer. Not that what I was asking for was something sinful. Not in a clearly blatantly sinful way. I was just praying for my way. For delive...Now juxta...

Soul's Expression: My Mom
http://souls-expression.blogspot.com/2014/03/my-mom.html
Monday, March 31. One of the best moments of my life was giving birth to my baby girl with my husband and mom there with me. But Adam was there. Even if he didn't get up each time in the middle of the night or feed her for the 1,000th time that day, he was an emotional support and often. Gave me a break by feeding her and getting up at 2 in the morning. On top of it all, he did the lion's share of housework to keep the apartment in working order. To have done all that I have done, but to do it solo.

Seasonal Soundings: Thoughts as I climb the precipice of Gone with the Wind
http://seasonalsoundings.blogspot.com/2015/03/thoughts-as-i-climb-precipice-of-gone.html
Wednesday, March 11, 2015. Thoughts as I climb the precipice of Gone with the Wind. With my rather slow start of Gone with the Wind. Should be considered my first. Sometimes when I read, a skim over short sections of prose to get the idea being described. In Gone with the Wind. I cannot skim. The prose is too rich and thick. Even if I wanted to skim, I don't want to miss Mitchell's one shot at word beauty in her only known book. Being from Virginia, I did enjoy this:. One new word for me - folderol.

Seasonal Soundings: Intentional Reading
http://seasonalsoundings.blogspot.com/2015/02/intentional-reading.html
Friday, February 27, 2015. For a number of years now, I've embraced the word intentional. Until I realized the word was what drove me in my activities, I just did my daily tasks with intention and never thought anything about it. After homeschooling for twenty years and moving into a traditional classroom as a middle/upper school teacher, I recognized the need to embrace that word intentional. A helpful list of things can be found here. Such as the Harry Potter. Books, the Hunger Games. British naval boo...

Home is Big Sky Country. Monday, January 24, 2011. This Weekend I . It's nice to take a few moments to recall exactly what I did this past weekend. Thanks to my blogging friend, Karen.
