Grace Upon Grace: This One Might Be A Mess
http://mpetri.blogspot.com/2014/04/this-one-might-be-mess.html
Tuesday, April 15, 2014. This One Might Be A Mess. Sunday was the 5 year anniversary of our last miscarriage. I have to admit that this year has been harder than most. I have some guesses as to why that might be, but I'm probably wrong. Grief isn't predictable and tidy, it's messy and overwhelming sometimes. Like could I do something that would help me to see better? Today I am spending lots of time in the Word, surrounding myself with worship music and reminding myself of the faithfulness of God. Of...

Grace Upon Grace: August 2014
http://mpetri.blogspot.com/2014_08_01_archive.html
Monday, August 18, 2014. A Letter To My Husband. My husband is proudly serving as a third shift police officer in a city near our home. It's a city that keeps him busy. Here's my letter to him. Over the last few days I've read several articles about this mess in Ferguson. I know, I know, I shouldn't. The three articles I read were all pro-police and they didn't say anything I didn't already know. And then for some unknown reason, I read the comments. They were predictable. If I were to write a post fille...

Grace Upon Grace: November 2012
http://mpetri.blogspot.com/2012_11_01_archive.html
Thursday, November 1, 2012. It's That Time Again. I am seriously behind this year. But, no worries, Christmas is finally here! And I'll leave you with the best line of the night from Halloween. We were inside waiting for trick-or-treaters and Gretchen spotted a group of teenagers coming up the driveway. Older teenagers. WITHOUT COSTUMES. As she went across the room to open the door she said, "Oh, these yahoos are getting dumdums."She cracks me up. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). View my complete profile.

Grace Upon Grace: February 2014
http://mpetri.blogspot.com/2014_02_01_archive.html
Wednesday, February 26, 2014. So I know that it's all I ever post, but this kid is cracking me up. This morning I was running around the house being goofy and singing at the top of my lungs. Michael was eating cereal at the kitchen table. Michael: "I guess it's over.". Me: "What, buddy? Michael: "Well something must be over . the fat lady's singing.". Labels: Thats My Son.

Tuesday, December 17, 2013. From The Mouths of Babes. I look OLD" or something really awesome like that. To which Chloe replied, "Mom, you don't look old.". In my head I thought, 'oh, that's nice. I mean I know it's not true, but it was nice all the same.'. She continued, "If you looked old all. Your hair would be gray.". And my day has begun. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

Grace Upon Grace: November 2013
http://mpetri.blogspot.com/2013_11_01_archive.html
Sunday, November 24, 2013. There are few things in my life that have made me as grateful as this morning. Watching my husband baptize our oldest child is something our family will all remember for a lifetime. Rachel, I love you and I am so thankful that I get a front row seat to watch God work in your life! God is so good! Labels: God at Work. Sunday, November 3, 2013. Getting older". None of those things compare with dropping your oldest child off at youth group. Youth group! Are you kidding me!

Grace Upon Grace: October 2013
http://mpetri.blogspot.com/2013_10_01_archive.html
Wednesday, October 30, 2013. Yesterday my mom had what I am praying was her final surgery in her battle with breast cancer. It was the long awaited day for reconstruction. The surgery was in Columbus and took about nine and a half hours. It was a long day, BUT things are going very well and she may be able to come home as early as this weekend. My eyes filled with tears as she shared that with me. I'm so thankful that we have a God that loves to comfort us in very unlikely ways. Labels: God at Work.
