don't care if i'm naked with shame
put me back under Your flame
burn this heart clean



The Journey
My church in St. Louis. We are excited about all the things going on there and all that we have to learn about life in community.


Harbor
My church in Montrose. We miss it so much, I can't even say. This is a place where following Jesus is a 24/7 proposition.

the sour and the sweet from jen and graham (but mostly jen)

It goes so fast...so, so, so fast. I recently took some "same shot-different year" photos of Owen and the difference was shocking to me. In the continual glow of every day I can't see him grow at all, but the strobe light of photos makes it all too real. I feel like I want to record some of what it's like to be his mom (Margie's too, she's just not that funny yet...)

On agriculture: "Mom, I've thought up a great nickname for horses. Hors. If we don't have time to say horses, we can just call them hors."

On success: "Ella said the gold medal was the best, but I think if I was the best I would get the red medal instead."

On family closeness: "When I grow up to be the king I will need a queen. Mom, you will be too old by then, so Margaret can be my queen."

about the author(s).... jen and graham are a jesus-followers; they live in St. Louis, where jen grew up. jen and graham are 31 and 32, respectively, and they have the sweetest baby boy ever; graham is a musician and they both enjoy good music, though differing greatly on the definition of such.
