A Year of New Beginnings. Hello 2013!
Here we are! It’s officially 2013 and we have a lot of news to share! If you are an old reader then you may have read many entries about my beloved Flint Monsters. The Flint Monsters are 5 beautiful children that I have loved on since the oldest was 3 when I was in high school! Their mother, Janelle is my closest friend, she has been there through high school break ups, emotional rollercoasters in my teenage life, marriage, life changes, and she was even there for both of my children’s births and has taken on the roll (along with her hubby) as godparent to my sweet kiddos.

My Hiding Place
You are my hiding place; you will protect me from trouble and surround me with songs of deliverance. (Psalm 32:7-8) I am desperate for a hiding place right now.

I’m vulnerable and broken and the only thing I know to do is to just fall down on my knees and cry to the ONE who can protect me. Words can be incredibly hurtful. This is the second time I’ve written a post like this in mere weeks…

Discouraged
I’m not really sure what to say at this point. I can say that I am so tired of being judged and so tired of being put down for decision I make pertaining to Boogie. I have never intentionally put down someone for how they raise their children, I may think it… I may not agree with what they are doing, but I would never say anything to take them down and make them feel bad as a person. If they are putting their child in danger, than yes I may discreetly say something, but I always have an internal battle as to what I should say and try to…
