Dear Lady in the Red Sweater,
I like you.
I noticed you at church tonight.
You lifted your arms high into the air while we sang.
You stood up and praised God publicly in the way I only do in my mind.
And when we were all sitting down for one song, you couldn't help yourself. You stood back up. You lifted your arms back in the air. You closed your eyes. And you just praised God.
Because you wanted to.
Because you could.
And I like you for it.

- These are my musings on motherhood ... this overpowering, terrifying, amazing, exhausting, incredible opportunity of an adventure in which I have found myself in the midst. This is what I think about my kids, your kids and everyone else's kids. Consider these the scattered thoughts of a mother in the middle of a mayhem that she helped to create and is now simply trying to navigate through without losing her sanity, her soul or her self.

I watched the lady in red as well. What joy she had. I want that kind of joy to radiate from me.
