“Never be afraid to trust an unknown future to a known God.” ― Corrie ten Boom It’s the last day for Jennifer Fulwiler’s 7 for 7 Challenge, and I was stumped when it came to a topic today. Until I went to Mass, that is. It’s been less than a year since I wrote about our…
I got word back from Seton about my older daughter’s research paper this morning. Is there a stronger word than “proud” that I can use?

It was an agonizing decision, and something I thought about and prayed about and struggled with for about two years before finally acting and taking her in to see about starting…
Or: Jennifer Fulwiler has another cool idea! To get her groove back after a grueling schedule of book-writing and baby-having, Jen has decided to challenge herself to blog for seven days in a row beginning tomorrow.
