Wife
of a government tech guy suddenly becomes wife of a farmer (not to worry, they
are the same guy).
Woman
who somewhat enjoyed writing discovers it’s something she might actually do a
little bit well.
Gal
who can’t swim worth a lick takes to kayaking right off the dock.
Musically-challenged
soccer mom transforms into drum-playing rocker mom.
My
life is proof that God has His own plans...and a sense of humor.
It’s
also proof that He never leaves or forsakes us.
He
was there when I was 15 and newly moved to Northern Virginia. He made sure I met Dawn, so that she could
introduce me to Him.
He
was there when the tech guy and I stopped infertility treatments and gave up
hope of having children. He was there
through the severe depression that followed.
He was there when our first miracle son was born, and nine years later at
the appearance of miracle number two.
He
was there three and a half years ago, forming Talk Your Legg Off Productions in
my head and heart, re-igniting my interest in writing, directing my completely
unexpected attempt at making a film (some would substitute unwise or
unwarranted for unexpected). And He was
there two and a half years ago, encouraging me through the mildly-terrifying
proposition of writing for Daily Fast Fuel.
He
was there on the camping trip in 2008 when a total stranger invited me to try
out her kayak. He was the bravery that pushed
me past my fears of failure and looking stupid to paddle and laugh and discover
new passion.
He
was there Christmas 2009, playing Lego Rock Band with our oldest son, when I
sat down at the drum kit and it felt exactly like home.
He’s
been there through every laugh, every tear, every sigh, every everything. He loves me.
I love Him.
My
life is proof that there is a God, and He is good.
