There was a time...

when I wrote my OWN nice, long, more profound-ish (like that brand new word?)blog posts to convey the heart of our family, but lately I have put all of my mental energy into finding that work/ministry-family-guilt balance and I must say...we ARE getting there! I agree with and needed this post titled, Hardest Job in the World.

Thankfully, I have been challenged and encouraged to find MORE and MORE kindred spirits in the blog world who are taking the words/thoughts/feelings right out of my mind and putting them to work on their blogs. I have found so many and I am trying to share them as I come upon them!!

I ABSOLUTELY loooove the post I stumbled upon tonight titled Love is an Action Word Amen & Amen!!!!

Also, we have had a lot of well meaning people inquire about how we plan to fund raising more than the typical family of 4!! My first reaction is we serve MORE THAN the TYPICAL God!!! The College card is thrown out there all the time! A blogger recently wrote a blog post titled, I Don't Want My Children to Be Happy that addresses this question. *This is NOT to say that we don't plan to TRY and help our kids with college...it just goes to show you where their and OUR priorities are 1st!*

And lastly, MANY of you have emailed me regarding the fact that you want so badly to adopt, but your husband is not having any part of it. Well, a fellow bloggers husband made a video to address THOSE husbands of yours :o)

So, have you found anything worth sharing in the blog world lately?
