We're passing the stomach flu around here. Dennis introduced it to me. I'm praying the kids won't join the party. More pics sometime later...

A little more about me
I am....
wife of Dennis, my sweet love - the kindest, gentlest, funniest, smartest man I've ever known and EXACTLY the man for whom I prayed (and not at all who I thought I wanted but thankfully, God is wiser than I);
mother of Annalivia '05, Daniel '07, Emmeliese '09, Peter '10, and Elora (born into the arms of Jesus '13) the hearts of my own heart, joys of my life, far more than I ever prayed for because my mind could never conceive of such wonderfully intricate and delightful little beings;
granddaughter of grandparents who taught me to love fiercely and forgive freely and that it is better to be respectful rather than proved right and grateful rather than gratified;
daughter of two amazing people who have devoted themselves to their children and family and have continued to figure out ways to love each other;
sister of three incredibly intelligent, clever, imaginative, zany younger sisters, my best friends, who are crazy enough to keep coming back, even though I do all sorts of things to drive them nuts;
friend of some hilarious people from kindergarten, grade school, high school, college, seminary and beyond;
former pastor learning the joys and challenges of being called to be home full-time-ish while volunteer-teaching at a teeny classical school;
pilgrim bumbling forward on this amazingly glorious journey towards Home.

Where y'all are coming from
"You are the salt of the Earth." (Mt. 5:13)
"Have salt in yourselves and be at peace with one another" (Mk. 9:50)
"Let your conversation be always full of grace, seasoned with salt, so that you may know how to answer everyone" (Col. 4:6)

Feel better soon!
Catching up on your blog...love the black and white photos.
Thanks for your nice comments!
Sorry to hear . . .we all went through it too. I think my niece started it, then it went to the other niece, then me and my sis-in-law, then Jim . . .then on and on through pretty much everyone. Ky started it on Thanksgiving, so everyone had the opportunity to be infected. It's hideous, isn't it? Hope you feel better soon!
