Grace in Small Things, Week 1. Birdie walking- arms out-stretched, high-stepping knees, curled-under toes. 3 weeks in a row, 3 solitary hours to write read, at my favorite coffee shop. Fear becoming hard work, frustration becoming change, some long-time personal goals finally being realized. Peace within the complicated present. Pea looking up at me suddenly and yelling, "Bow to the how cow! I don't know, either, but it sure was funny. I'll also be posting old-school updates on the girls. Writing as a wa...

LoveDrunk: Graces, #33

Sunshine. In our part of the world we spend the end of summer soaking up every last drop and ray knowing that once the rain comes it's here for a while. Birthdays. Celebrating a DNA sister and a sister-by-choice, both in the same week. Celebrating another friend's ordination. She is fearless and opinionated and gracious and wise beyond her years, and she works tirelessly and selflessly for everything she believes in. Jessica, the church needs to get over itself and let more women like you lead. It would ...

Birdie discovering her tongue and sticking out everywhere, all the time, at anyone. Completely innocent and hilarious. Making lists and lists and lists. Making lists is often a reminder to me of how lucky I am, how much choice I have, what a peaceful life this is in comparison to a good half of the rest of the world. Banana. She eats 2-3 every day. It's a miracle she poops at all. 3 years of blogging as of today. When I started I was tentative, scared, and a newly-mother. Now I hear "Mama, MaMA! Meeting ...

Politics and religion like to use big, scary words that can mean all sorts of different things depending on the speaker or user and the thought of trying to constantly explain myself is exhausting. And pointless. Friendship, relationship and empathy are the things that really have the power to change the world. Government always fails in the end. The other reason I vote is this: I have a firm conviction, from which I cannot. Be moved, that human life can't be divided up into little boxes with a different...

Adeleine and I got to have a date day yesterday. She is absolutely delightful to be around and everyone who meets her says so. Is that bragging? Keep in mind that this is also the kid who frequently keeps me up all night. Still. So it's nice to have a public record that it hasn't been all bad. Here we are, about to go have lunch, bunny crackers in hand. Have lovely weeks, friends. I should be more grateful. I love that photo of the two of you - your eyes are amazing, and so alike. Lovely.

There was 5 inches. And then there was almost 3/4” of ice. Then there was at least another 3-4 inches of snow. And you know, in this part of the world it rains and rains and rains often there is ice and sometimes there is a dusting of snow. But unless you’re up in the hills somewhere or heading up one of the local mountains that’s it. There hasn’t been this much snow in 40 years. And 40 years ago we got less than this (can't remember off the top of my head). This was record-breaking. This is her face aft...

You don't fear death or whatever comes next; and that I have yet to resolve my own theology or lack thereof around death and dying. But then, I am still recovering from childhood nightmares featuring in full-effect a terrifying god-figure that was male in the worst possible way and hell-bent (literally) on the destruction of everything that wasn't to his liking or current whim. Birdie sings. All day long, every song playing loudly or in the background. She sings East of the Sun West of the Moon. Keep in ...

LoveDrunk: On Daughters: A Manifesto
http://www.lovedrunk.net/2010/07/on-daughters-manifesto.html
On Daughters: A Manifesto. Oh, my girls. Your fate is not to be as a lonely princess, waiting in frozen youth and painted beauty for final, heroic rescue by some physically strong but one-dimensional man. You are strong and brave. Since the day you were born. Don't waste your life stalking around the dark and crumbling ruins of girlhood, swathed in a pile of mouldering lace and dreams. Keep your heart your own and free. Oh, my girls. And you are not lazy. You are to be someone's rescuer, not the rescued.
