Our lives are a journey that we walk together not in order to become "good christian women," but rather to draw near to God so that we can reflect His light to those around us. Our stories, our paths, our dreams and our message are all unique. But we hold hands and walk boldly, fearlessly......onward...creating joy, hope, faith and peace in our wake.

Goofballs

I am blessed by an abundance of loving people around my life.  Some are in.  Some kind of surround.  It is a huge blessing.  Tonight I am thankful for all of the "goofballs"....those who don't take themselves too seriously.  Who know how to have fun.  Who laugh regularly.  Who enjoy silly stuff.  Who give wholehearted hugs.  Who risk being known......and being teased.....and being weird. These people bless my whole self.
Playing is fun.  Letting loose. 
That is another area that is hard around our house.  Play is still "work"...do your best, try your hardest, win, do it right.  I remember going to someone's house where the dad "cheated" at spoons...not really, he just threw cards and messed around and made it completely wonderful for the kids playing.  He was on the floor cutting up and making it a totally whacky game.  I like that.
