more than enough: April 2009
http://garnetruth.blogspot.com/2009_04_01_archive.html
Wednesday, April 29, 2009. I'd like a chopped liver sandwich please. There have been a lot of things I've done wrong as a mom, but one thing I'm particularly proud of is my diligence in recording the funny, cute, or especially dear things my kids have said. I only wish I had started a notebook for Jim. He has on more than one occasion referred to my capris as "koom quats" - which I can only assume is a derivation of culottes (remember those? That took a tragic turn into the produce category. I am timidly...

Mundane Miracles: Rejection, my old friend
http://readaboutrenee.blogspot.com/2011/10/lonelies.html
Looking for the miracles hidden in the everyday. Wednesday, October 26, 2011. Rejection, my old friend. It's amazing how the present can bring up the past and make it seem so real again. Mommyno one wants to play with me at recess anymore. Not even my friends. I ask everybody, and nobody wants to play with me.". Oh how this mama's heart hurt at those words! I dug a little deeper and was able to find out that while she did play by herself at one recess, she played with 2 girl friends during the 2 nd.

Mundane Miracles: Wrestling
http://readaboutrenee.blogspot.com/2011/05/wrestling.html
Looking for the miracles hidden in the everyday. Monday, May 02, 2011. When I was younger and more full of myself, I read the story of how Jacob wrestled with an angel of God. I remember thinking to myself. How could someone wrestle with God? They must be prideful and arrogant. And then to say "I'm not letting go until you bless me? I can't even imagine! I feel like I was up all night wrestling with God.". Oh, how I am like Jacob! It's hard. Unbelievably hard. You'd think it would be easy, right? Today, ...

Fix Fabulous: June 2011
http://fixfabulous.blogspot.com/2011_06_01_archive.html
Thursday, June 30, 2011. Someone is old. But not as old as me or her older brother. But she's old. And Fix and the kids went over to celebrate her birthday with her. This is the only picture they got but at least it shows the super cool Stella and Dot necklace her mother purchased. From www.stelladot.com/rachelfix. Wednesday, June 29, 2011. We love the Rohals. And we love museums. So when we got the offer to go with the Rohals. We were ALL IN! Who shared them with the Rohals who shared them with us.

more than enough: I can call you Betty and Betty when you call me, you can call me Al
http://garnetruth.blogspot.com/2009/05/i-can-call-you-betty-and-betty-when-you.html
Monday, May 4, 2009. I can call you Betty and Betty when you call me, you can call me Al. At our house evolution is alive and well in the form of the names we call each other. If my poor kids ever have to fill out a background check and list all the names they've been known by, they'll need an extra sheet. Until someone would ask what his middle name was. "Oh, it's Daniel." "? So what's the T for? Garrison, my fourth, has a name that doesn't lend itself well to being shortened, so when he was little and ...

Mundane Miracles: August 2008
http://readaboutrenee.blogspot.com/2008_08_01_archive.html
Looking for the miracles hidden in the everyday. Saturday, August 23, 2008. Fireworks in the Rain. I have made the decision to start living. For most of my life I have just gone through the motions, getting through each day. Most recently, my days have gone something like this:. Only 2 more hours until naptime. Or "My hubby will be home in 1/2 an hour! And "I can't wait until tomorrow because of such and such.". I spend most of my time just surviving. Existing, but not living. Today was my first day of l...

Looking for the miracles hidden in the everyday. Thursday, August 13, 2009. Thursday August 13, 2009: 2:00 pm. I've been thinking for a long time about my relationship with blogging. It started out as a great outlet for my thoughts.I have tried my whole life to keep a journal and feel so much better when I do, but thought it would be easiest to type a journal instead of taking the time to 'write' in one. (That might actually make my hand cramp! So I'm going back to basics. Journaling. I was in charge of ...

Whatever, Whenever, Wherever, Whoever: What's Your Personality Type?
http://danceklutz.blogspot.com/2006/10/whats-your-personality-type.html
Whatever, Whenever, Wherever, Whoever. It's just somewhere I can rant and rave and write (or not) on whatever I choose to! Monday, October 16, 2006. What's Your Personality Type? You Are An INFP. You are creative with a great imagination, living in your own inner world. Open minded and accepting, you strive for harmony in your important relationships. It takes a long time for people to get to know you. You are hesitant to let people get close. You would make an excellent writer, psychologist, or artist.

Looking for the miracles hidden in the everyday. Tuesday, April 29, 2008. Journey in the Desert: Day 333; We're Here! Just in case there are any mathematicians. Out there who realize that my 'Journey in the Desert' days don't add up; I originally started counting the days from when our townhouse first went on the market. I decided to change the starting date to when we first decided to pursue a move to Michigan. Since we didn't sell the townhouse, I thought that might be irrelevant. It was ov. My husband...
