Hahahaha!

Seriously you made me laugh!!! This one and the previous one about what you actually did for work. I was tempted to send it to my former boss (Who is one of my close friends – was even in my wedding) because she could relate to it also. What is the deal with men walking all the way down the hall to ask me to photocopy a document when the copier is directly outside his office door. Cathryn (my direct supervisor) goes through the same. On the note of this blog – I quit (?) my job in August because I was starting my 3rd trimester…. and there really is a point where you – for whatever reason – question your worth because you aren’t contributing to society. I still occationally feel that way now that my son is born… but I also am finding my value in being a wife and a mother. I’m definately a crappy “domesticated woman”… but I’m learning. Thank God my husband can cook (I LOVE LOVE LOVE to bake, cooking not so much) or else we would starve… but hey, I’m learning… Anyway, I loved (as always) what you wrote… it was relatable and funny… Thank God for Jenni updating her blog too – because it seriously entertains me!

It sounds like you are actually doing well. Maybe that’s just the words here, but you are very strong. I see this pattern with you: gifted abundantly and stripped bare over and over. Your story is being written, my love. And it sure is beautiful. I love being a part of it. I’m sorry it hurts. We need the hurts to remind us of what goodness and fullness feels like.
