Logan update

Little Logan is still pretty little, but WHOA is he growing!! He is weighing in these days at nearly 7 pounds, which is about... 7 times his birth weight!

You can check his latest progress here:
Updates from the Greens.

Just thought I would let you know that he is doing well. Still a ways to go, but better every day! Thanks to all of you who have been praying for him! Hopefully soon I will let you know that he is heading home!! For now, this is the most up to date picture available!

a Camp Birthday

This weekend I went to retreat.

For the first time in my 31 years I spent the day of my birthday at camp... and I do LOVE camp... so it was a special blessing.

More to come on the craziness that was Fall Retreat, along with pictures! But for now.... thanks for the great weekend!!

on snow flurries and slacker attitudes

So. I have not blogged in a while. But the snow flurries are falling outside and I should be writing fall retreat lessons inside, so it seems the perfect time for a quick blog!!

Since last I wrote here I have been to my best friend from college's wedding (very, very nice!), found out information that made my life more difficult, planned three trips that just might end up on the "highlight reel" at the end of my year, and struggled with tough situations. I have been inspired and disillusioned, excited and passive, educated and "schooled". I have learned how some things work together and I have not always been impressed.

Through all of the junk going on and all of the things that I struggle with, I have come to realize that... I am so blessed. At the end of the day, when the decisions are done being made and the hours and minutes have been spent, I realize that there has been more good than bad and I have learned an awful lot for the struggle. And really... struggle is not always a bad thing!!

So here I am... in my cold office, on a gray Tuesday, remembering that I do love my life and I am truly blessed, and no matter what comes of the days and weeks ahead, I will continue to love life and try to live these days for a bigger purpose than me!

hmmmm... guess I can't put it off any longer... on to fall retreat planning!!
