So - it has been too long! But Fall is here - and so our family schedule starts to fall into place, with that I hope to have more of a commitment to this blog! My primary focus originally was dance in Christian worship, and that may fuel many posts, but I think I will include our spiritual journey as well. Our journey in encouraging our children to Love the Lord with All their hearts.
The most recent creative project has been the pregnancy and birth of our third child, Elousia, born May 20/2009 at home. My husband found the name in the novel, The Shack. It means "God - being that which is truly real". In this day in age, we pray that our children will know the Truth and be living examples of this Truth!
One of my daily prayers for my children is for them to hear from God themselves - to know His voice. Recently Selah, 4, asked who was the enemy - we had just finished prayers and tucking children into bed. I really did not want to engage in a conversation like this before bed! So I tossed the responsibility off and told Selah - "ask the Lord, He can explain it better than I could ever!" Five minutes later, she called to me, and to my surprise she said, "He said the enemy is the snake that was in the garden!" I was pretty floored! I believe that God can speak to my "littles", but when it happens it still surprises me.
Blessings to you today!
p.s. sorry there are no photos - blogger is acting up today! I will republish with photos when it's working again!

I love it when God surprises us like that. How quickly we forget His promises like "Ask and you shall receive..."
I love the meaning of your daughter's name.
