I'm Escaping...

Sometime this afternoon I'm heading a few hours away to enjoy a weekend retreat with the ladies from our church.

Staying up late.

Eating a meal without having to cut anyone's food or break up a fight.

Possibly shopping without interruption.

And spending some time with God....and I can't wait to see what He has in store for me.

    Hi there! I found your blog through the book challenge at Callapidder Days. I've especially enjoyed your homeschool blog, too. I've just started homeschooling my little girl this year.
    I don't mean to be nosey, but did you by any chance attend college at EU? You look just like a girl who was on my floor one year--and, of course you have the same name:)

    Small world, huh? We both lived in Walther your first semester, I think. I was in the RA suite (Karlene was the RA). If I remember correctly, you once rode to Arkansas (where I'm from) on a weekend break with my family. I left EU after that semester, but still keep in touch with a few friends from there.

    I'm particularly jealous of the not having to cut anyone's food! Or get up every 5 seconds to get someone some more milk or a towel or ketchup or whatever. Wow - that would be great. I'm so happy for you!
