Yesterday I was talking to my friend Levi about church earlier that day. He said that when he looked around he saw us as family, as dysfunctional one at that. I laughed and said, “That’s because that’s what we are!” We’re all hurting, broken, searching for something, and desiring to belong somewhere. Our church is [...]

3 years ago today…
2008 was a very difficult year for me. This time back then I didn’t want to get out of bed. My friends were so good to me. They’re still so good to me. I read the following post and feel all emotional. I remember the pain so clearly, yet it’s a memory. As I sit [...]

New Baby!!!!
I truly believe that I am one of the most blessed people to ever live. I am so serious. My sweet friend Jaime had a baby last night. I went to go see him today. Another friend, Michelle, was with me. I told her that babies totally amaze me. I love them. I love holding [...]

A Mighty Fortress
Hymns. I find that as I get older I appreciate them more. I don’t always appreciate the actual music, but rather the content. Other times I like the whole package. Well, let me tell ya. A musician friend of mine recently finished a cover of A Mighty Fortress. He worked on it the entire month [...]

Great Day!!!

Full Days
Yesterday was a really hard day. I wrote about some of my struggles on my photography blog. We have a lot of rough days here in the Taylor Tribe; many of them end up with me totally annoyed & putting my kids to bed early just to get them out of my hair. Then I [...]

Monday
In general, I haven’t enjoyed Mondays. This one has been great, though. I think it’s because my Sunday was filled with friends, laughter, and good conversation. You know the kind of good I mean? I mean where two people are talking back and forth and hearing one another. Stirring up and calming down. Feeling vulnerable [...]

Good Friends & Good Food
It occurs to me only now that I should’ve taken a picture of the wonderful breakfast that my dear Ana made me. That’s not really her name, but it’s the name I’ve always loved her by. In my head I call her myana. Because she’s mine. Time & distance has separated us for a long [...]

Snow Day
Hold up! Didn’t the groundhog indicate that Spring would be here soon. I never trusted that guy! Last week it snowed a whole 3 inches therefore shutting down our little town in the Pacific Northwest. I was officially housebound, though not everybody was since half the town ended up at my house. Just kidding. It [...]
