Moody Bible Institute: A stop along the way...

I sat on the hard floor of a cabin in PA...
There was no electricity, there were nothing but girls, and I was trying to explain something about God and the Bible...
I was confused. I wasn't quite sure how to answer my own question.
At that point I realized, if I wanted to continue doing the things I'm most passionate about, I was going to need some additional training.

A lot of things happened between that moment and the one pictured above.
I became a wife
I became a mother
I learned what it meant to live on love (and a little spare change)
I learned that the more I tried to understand God, the more there was to know.

MBI has been just one stop along the way, in my lifelong pursuit, of attempting to wrap my mind around the God who adores me...

We are Back!

I'm back to blogging again. Life has slowed down a little...sorta :-)

Since we moved, we have not yet had the internet brought to our home. My dad loaned us a little laptop with a wireless card so I can finally use the internet on my own time!

Using the internet prior consisted of rounding up Micah, walking to the Library, finding a little spot in the far back corner of the children's room, and just hoping he would entertain himself while I did as much as I could.

When time is measured be a one-year's attention span....lets just say it hardly exists :-)

So the necessaties were taken care of and the rest...blogging...neglected until now!

Since my last post what has all changed?
Micah went from crawling to walking to running.
JT was laid off and then re-hired.
I went from having 9 credits left to earn my AA to 3.
We have moved twice and have a new address.
We have watched our "little plans" constantly morph into something greater.
We are just as excited and happy about what life has to hold as ever!
