...is what I did this morning. Camp NaNo 2014 complete. What a great feeling it is. And with that, I think I'll just sit and enjoy the view for the rest of the day. Though I have to admit, I'm already looking forward to camp next year. 🙂

Thankful Thursday – The Lives and Health of My Boys
I clearly remember the phone call I received from my 16-year-old son while I was nearing the end of a workday. "Mom, I saw someone shot. They aren't moving. Mom, there's so much blood."

I'm a little late but didn't want to let this post slip through the cracks. There's so much to be grateful for that it seems a shame not to express it openly. My top three for the past week: 3.)

Healing Words
Today, July 8th, marks eight days of celebrating life, and each day hereafter, yet another. A year ago, I posted a blog entry on life circumstances that have made July a very difficult month to get through.

With such a big week, it's difficult to narrow it down to three, as blessings flowed--and keep flowing--abundantly. However, keeping consistent with my Friday posts, my top three for the week: 3.)
