Steeped in Hope: April 2014
http://steepedinhope.blogspot.com/2014_04_01_archive.html
Sunday, April 27, 2014. Today is Adrian’s last day of work here. Tomorrow we leave and start our 3000 km journey to our new home. I don’t want to go, but I know we have to. We are called to move. While we deliberated the call, it was easy to see how God was calling us onward, yet when we said yes, it suddenly became a much bigger deal. Though I have moved 9 times in my life (4 of which were large, either across Canada or to Australia), I find this place harder to leave. It has become my home. Fare well t...

Steeped in Hope: Good Friday
http://steepedinhope.blogspot.com/2014/04/good-friday.html
Friday, April 18, 2014. No matter how hard this day gets for me, it is Good Friday. The Good is mine. The Good is done. The Good was because this was Jesus' worst day ever. As I sit with the weight of three little boys wrestling in my lap on and off, he had the weight of the world on his shoulders. Have you ever had a sin weigh on you? You know you did something wrong and you can feel that weight pressing you down? And he did it uncomplainingly. He did it because he is love. And you know what else? Come ...

Steeped in Hope: December 2013
http://steepedinhope.blogspot.com/2013_12_01_archive.html
Friday, December 20, 2013. The boys like to be read books. Tall (when he was small), would bring a book to me and put it in my left hand and sit in my lap. This indicated it was time to read. Once finished, if he wanted to hear it again, he would put it back in my left hand. Small does similar things, carrying around books and putting himself in my lap. They are nothing if not subtle. This morning when I tried to lie in bed until 6 am, Small brought me I Went Walking. It's fun to make the voices and poin...

Steeped in Hope: March 2014
http://steepedinhope.blogspot.com/2014_03_01_archive.html
Thursday, March 6, 2014. Like Fleming McWilliams and David Bowie before me, I find that I am afraid of many things. Not Americans so much (although I wouldn't want to run into Scarlett O'Hara in a dark alley. She be crazy. Perhaps, but a lot of little things. Driving on ice. Snakes. Singing in public. Singing in public while driving with a snake on ice. Were his obs. not fine every time they checked him? How was he not stable? The boys visited a few times in those couple days, but even though they enjoye...

Steeped in Hope: February 2014
http://steepedinhope.blogspot.com/2014_02_01_archive.html
Friday, February 7, 2014. Third Time's the Charm. Welcome to the birth story of my third son! Upon careful reflection, I cannot determine how much of this story to share, so it shall be presented in two forms:brief/succinct and too much information. Wait, you say, shouldn't a birth story start with labour and end with birth? To that I say, probably, but I can't help myself. Also, he was the largest of my three sons at birth. But it just doesn't seem like enough, does it? The wedding was finished and Adri...

Steeped in Hope: July 2014
http://steepedinhope.blogspot.com/2014_07_01_archive.html
Wednesday, July 23, 2014. The long long long way back. As you might know, we moved recently and our delightful little family had the fun of moving across Australia. Well, 3000 km across it, anyway. Because we moved around the time of Anzac Day, the movers packed up our things on the Wednesday and loaded them on the Thursday. We were leaving on the Monday following. I can hear you thinking that one through. Did we camp with three youngens? Are we experienced in the way of the air mattress? The last days c...
