15 Minutes of Advent & a Giveaway

{Scroll below to see how to enter this Advent Giveaway}... * * * * * In honor of the new liturgical year soon beginning and the hum of Advent in the air, I wanted to offer one of you a special something. Part of it are the extra printouts for Christmas Comfort for Moms which was offered a few years ago at Hillside Education. What is it? "This Christmas Comfort for Moms is not a study or a curriculum guide. It is a reflective time for you to break away from your other multitude of wonderful, life-giving plans and embrace the holiday season, reclaim the peace and joy that God desires for all wives and mothers this time of year. Hopefully, it will give you the motivation to draw richer meaning out of the other riches you find sprinkled around the Internet. As I have espoused in A Picture Perfect Childhood , sometimes we only need to capture 15-minutes to reclaim our vision of who we are called to serve and what we are called to do." The real intent is

Gumbo and Hurricane: A Perfect Blend

I've been keeping up (via FB) on family and friends who live in the path of the hurricane. Many have lost roofs, have leaking ceiling, some have flooding in parts of their house. One friend said her patio was fixing to collapse. Many are without electricity. It seemed like a good idea to all concerned...sch

Simpler Expectations

(Guess my Saint for 2011 in the combox and win a door prize---See bottom of post) At the beginning of this three week vacation, I was exhausted. Didn't know it. Wouldn't admit it. But I was really exhausted. On the eve of "welcome-to-life-in-2011" I'm realizing that no matter how much life has to offer and no matter how much of it is good and wonderful, there comes a time when you must step back. I've realized within these three weeks that almost everything I do is done because other people expect it of me. It's not because I want to impress people. I don't. It's usually because if I don't do something, I will be labeled under several tags I don't care to be labeled under such as: lazy, useless, undisciplined, unmotivated, unproductive, etc. Funny how that has been the motivation for me to "do". By "doing" I mean running in crazy spinning circles. I have fallen victim to the threat of the 21st century that tells m
