Stories

So I'm home.

After 31 hours of travel (the first 8 of which were spent in first class because of my lost luggage) I made it back to Spokane at 10:00 Tuesday night.

Frankly, I'm a little overwhelmed.

And not sure how to tell the story I hold in my heart.

So be patient with me. I need to find a way to settle into the pace here again. And I need to pray about telling the right stories. And I want to stop feeling like I want to go crawl in a hole.

I kind of feel lost - like I don't belong here. Or there.

So bear with me.

It was an incredible trip.

Really and truly.

And I wish there was a way to take you there with me. In time, I believe I'll have the words to tell the stories.

Let's wait until after this holiday weekend... and then I'll do my best to begin to tell you.

Happy Thanksgiving, my dear friends.

We have so much to be thankful for, dont' we?

Smooch you all.

Phlumpyschlumpy.

Good morning, peeps. It's Friday. There's frost outside this morning. *FROST!* This week has been ridiculously chilly. I'm having mixed feelings about blogging lately. Mostly because I feel like all I've been doing is whine about being tired. Or overwhelmed. And because comments are lacking. And because I can't seem to think about anything to write about except Tejan. And because some of the thoughts I'm having are too private for the blog - or too repetitive. Or too unformed to turn into actual words you all could understand. So I'm struggling a bit. And yet, I'm committed to documenting the process I'm in. So I'll keep writing when the words come. And when they don't, like this morning, when I looked at that intimidating blinking cursor and my mind went blank and I started to break out in a cold sweat and began by talking about the weather... well, then, I'll just gracefully (or not so gracefully) back out of the room... tail between m...

Missoula Children's Theater

Last week Savannah and Ethan were both cast in their school's Missoula Children's Theater production of Red Riding Hood. Savannah was cast as Mother Hood and the Grandmother, and Ethan was Robin Hood - the Hood family's cousin from England. After five days of intense rehearsing, (four and a half hours every day after school) they were ready for two shows on Saturday afternoon. It was so fun for them. And fun for me, as I was one of two parent volunteers with the privilege of being at every rehearsal. I come from my own childhood experience of many opportunities with theater and musicals, so watching them experience the thrill of performing was awesome. It was an amazing week. I'm so glad they had the chance to do it. I loved that instead of having to commit to weeks and weeks of rehearsals, they just had to do this one really intense week. A full scale musical production without a month of rehearsing and I didn't have to sew any costumes! That's my kind of pla...
