Coming out of retirement!

Posted by: terisue on: November 29, 2007

I have been a retired real estate paralegal for several years now.  I worked for the same attorney for ten years.  Up until the time I had children, I worked my fingers to the bone for him.  Once Whit came along, my career became secondary.  I worked from home, part time for  a few years, [...]

Amazing Grace

Posted by: terisue on: November 21, 2007

How many times have we heard this hymn?  Even as someone who did not grow up in church, I know the main verse.  Now – how many times have we listened to the words?  There is a difference between hearing and listening.  Well, I think for the first time, I actually listened to the words and I [...]

Excitement = Forgetfulness

Posted by: terisue on: November 19, 2007

I was so incredibly excited about being baptized last Sunday, I forgot to tell all of you about something else that was incredibly exciting!
So – most of you know that I’m a new christian.  Not born again.  Brand spanking new.  Never been to church, never had a relationship with God.  Because I’ve never been to church, I’ve [...]

….I could protect my children from all the horrors in the world.
….I wasn’t so doggone fearful of tornadoes.  Go figure.  Never seen one – but just the mention of one nearby can terrify me.
….every day was like Sunday.
….I was just a little domesticated.  Not Martha Stewart domesticated – but [...]

Jesus, Whit and Sophie

Posted by: terisue on: November 6, 2007

There are two subjects that I could talk about all day long.  I could blog about them every day.  I don’t, because I don’t want to bore anyone, but I could literally spend all day talking about my kids and Jesus. 
My kids – for obvious reasons.  They are my life.  I love everything about their [...]

Sunday Night Summary

Posted by: terisue on: November 4, 2007

It’s been a while since I’ve blogged, so there should be lots to summarize.  Here it goes:
***I’ve been in a funk this week.  (Which is probably why I haven’t blogged.)  I think I’m over the funk now. Don’t know what caused it – don’t know why it’s gone – but I’m glad.
*** My husband left [...]
