Kristin McAlister: Kolby
http://kristinmcalister.blogspot.com/2013/05/kolby.html
Wednesday, May 8, 2013. I was just drifting off to sleep when I was suddenly overwhelmed with emotion. The only way for me to get these emotions out effectively is to write. I was overcome with thoughts from high school. Thoughts that brought me such joy, yet now fill me with sadness. I don't know. I was just thinking about Kolby and had to get it out. I miss you, sweet girl! But I know I'll see you again one day! Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Lora's United States of Whatever.

Kristin McAlister: Just Breathe
http://kristinmcalister.blogspot.com/2013/05/just-breathe.html
Tuesday, May 21, 2013. What a terrifying 24 hours we've had here in Oklahoma! I just can't believe that it all really happened! I have always hated tornadoes, but I hate them even more now. So, for now, we must remember to just breathe. Support those who lost loved ones. Lift up those parents in prayer whose babies were taken away from them yesterday. Donate your time, money, and anything else you can spare. We will come together and rebuild. But, first, let's just breathe.

Kristin McAlister: June 2010
http://kristinmcalister.blogspot.com/2010_06_01_archive.html
Wednesday, June 2, 2010. Summertime, summertime, sum- sum- summertime! June is finally here! Why on earth am I so excited that June is here? I HATE hot weather. I would much rather spend my days in Colorado in the middle of winter. That's just the kind of girl I am. But the reason I'm so excited that June is officially here is that we are going on our first ever FAMILY VACATION! I can't wait to see their little faces when we're at the Ballpark at Arlington and when we finally get to Hurricane Harbor....

Kristin McAlister: October 2009
http://kristinmcalister.blogspot.com/2009_10_01_archive.html
Monday, October 26, 2009. That big question, "Why? Is it that, with all of the homework that I already have to do, I am supposed to also do my son's kindergarten homework? And for that matter, why. Do kindergarteners have homework? Do the people you expect to be the last to disappoint you end up being the ones who inevitably will? Does money never stretch as far as you'd like it to? Does Monday always have a "feel" to it? Do we put our faith in men (mankind, not males) when we know they will let us down?

Kristin McAlister: August 2013
http://kristinmcalister.blogspot.com/2013_08_01_archive.html
Friday, August 9, 2013. I have been in a funk lately, and I can't seem to get out of it completely. My own thoughts of insecurity and inadequacy have been creeping back in. I have a lot of great things going for me, but those negative thoughts seem to scream louder than all the positivity in the world ever could. Do you want to be friends with the girl who is smiling through the pain, or who is faking it until she makes it? Do you want a half-hearted friendship with someone? I'm not speaking to others wh...

Kristin McAlister: May 2010
http://kristinmcalister.blogspot.com/2010_05_01_archive.html
Friday, May 21, 2010. My graduation has come and gone. The night itself was quite overwhelming and wonderful and scary and sad all at the same time. How can that be? I wouldn't have wanted it any other way. It was scary because I kept thinking to myself, "Are you really doing this? Been there that chose not to come. I will never understand that, mostly because there were family members who absolutely couldn't be there but would have if possible. Why didn't you show up? It was incredible and I'm so lucky ...

Friday, August 21, 2009. Is the answer staring me in the face? I never thought this day would come. And the words felt like an arrow to the heart. NO, nothing with me and Ryan. See, I took Reesey to get her 4-year-old Well Child Check on Wednesday. It was already a high-stress day, since it was Alex's first day of kindergarten. So, what's the problem? Well, Dr. Feghali suggested it so nonchalantly and matter-of-factly that it just blew me away. And when would she be having this surgery? I guess it's like...

Kristin McAlister: April 2013
http://kristinmcalister.blogspot.com/2013_04_01_archive.html
Thursday, April 25, 2013. I know that sounds narcissistic. It's not, I assure you. I have some of the lowest self-esteem in many areas of my life. Being a mom is not one of those areas, though. My kids bring me great joy. They are truly incredible human beings. Alex is one of the kindest, most genuine people I have ever encountered. His heart is truly that of a giving, loving person. There's a line from Kicking and Screaming. That woman. I mean, what else could I say about her? Saturday, April 6, 2013.
