Bloglights and Updates!

Jaminacema had a great idea!  She gave highlights from her blog for each month of 2006! 

I thought it might be fun to do the same...

Jan. 14, 2006 - Do You Know How Much a Saturday Night Visit to the Vet Costs?

Maybe THIS one is more like a LOW light!  I can hardly believe that this traumatic evening was almost a full year ago already.  Our dog, Quimby, is perfectly fine now and still thinks she is a BIG DOG!

Feb. 6, 2006 - I DID IT!!!

This was the beginning of the END of our public school experiment!  Our year of public school only served to make us appreciate our homeschooling much more deeply.  Now in our 10th year of homeschooling, all five children are back home where they belong!

Mar. 27, 2006 - HELD... and a self-pep talk... feel free to listen in!

This is the story about miscarriage and the goodness of God in a time of deep sorrow.

Apr. 16, 2006 - The Passover Celebration (that almost wasn't)...

This photo essay is one of my favorite entries!  I have fully enjoyed learning about Passover and making it a part of our family worship!

May. 12, 2006 - How NOT to Ruin Your Own Mother's Day With UNBIBLICAL Expectations

A pep-talk to myself that resulted in one of the LEAST stressed out holidays of my life!  I should have remembered this one more often throughout the last year!

Jun. 26, 2006 - Sweet Moment

Not only is this a BLOGlight...  I believe it was a highlight of the angels in Heaven's year!  I know they were rejoicing!

Jul. 5, 2006 - His Love Endures Forever: My Psalm 136

This is my "remake" of Psalm 136...  not that I even PRETEND to be as good a psalmist as King David, but poetry is such a tangible way to express my heart!

Aug. 13, 2006 - I'm Published! 

I was asked to write an article for a Health Action Newsletter.  I loved the opportunity to share about "The Faith Factor" of coping with chronic illness.

Sep. 17, 2006 - BAPTISM

Sep. 19, 2006 - Noah's Baptism Video

These two go together!  What a sweet day!

Oct. 3, 2006 - Surgery Day

Surgery?  A highlight?  YES!  Especially when its a VASECTOMY REVERSAL!!!  Can't wait to see if 2007 will hold a related highlight!!!!!

Nov. 10, 2006 - Family Photo Day

This was an exciting project for me that I have been wanting to do for YEARS!  Even when I was a child I used to set up portrait sessions with my stuffed animals and my little sister!  I love to take pictures!  I was pretty pleased with how these turned out and have been learning how to do better next time!

Dec. 31, 2006 - Sermon Notes: "We Have Time"

These sermon notes from last Sunday really blessed me.  I  hope they will bless and encourage you as you plan and prioritize for the coming year!

 

Predicted highlights for 2007

Family Vacation

Kaitlyn turning 15

Jordan turning 13

Ian turning 12

Noah turning 9

Hannah turning 7

and Maybe a new addition???  We'll see!

... and Happy Blogging in 2007!

It's funny how many of your posts that I actually remember! I didn't remember the miscarriage post. It touched me as well. Been there. :)

I've been reading your blog since I last visted (around Nov. 2005), so I've read all those, but it was fun to glance back again. It's good to remember the good & bad in our lives and see how far and how fast life takes us in just 1 year!

My name is Christina. I am 38 years old and have been happily married to my best friend, Russ for over 18 years! My username is quietcajun, but I am neither quiet, nor cajun! The nickname is based on my children's initials! The first four children are: Kaitlyn (16), Jordan (14 next month), Ian (12.5), and Noah (10 next month)... put their first intials together and you get KJIN (cajun). Sarah Hope is one of our babies in Heaven and Hannah (8 in September) is my youngest (so far). Put S and H together and you get SH as in SHHHH... QUIET. Get it? Thus, quietcajun! We are in our 12th year of homeschooling. We have tried public school, but we soon realized how important it is that they be HOME at all costs. Now we are back to having them all home again! It's not always easy, but it is for the BEST! Two of our children have Asperger's Syndrome. That is an adventure in itself. We are still learning! This blog is a place for me to sort out the daily joys and challenges of life as a mother and wife as I strive to love and know God more and bring GLORY to HIM in EVERY part of my LIFE!!!!
