For myself, there is a reason why trust is my word for 2011 and why I am whining and moaning about how hard next year is going to be with trust as a word and how I may as well choose love and money too and have the trifecta of hardness all at once. ;-)<br /><br />Suvi is coloring the world.<br /><br />(Hey, my word verify thing is suzzifyi - kind of cute)Elizabeth Halthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01595395276757245598noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2825412793517402149.post-20799810083433833842010-12-27T19:19:36.315-06:002010-12-27T19:19:36.315-06:00Thanks for the great update:) I love seeing the p...Thanks for the great update:) I love seeing the photos, and hearing of you:)Jonihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14011031103874589550noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2825412793517402149.post-10128504923677759432010-12-27T14:24:15.602-06:002010-12-27T14:24:15.602-06:00Beautiful new blog, beautiful pictures, beautiful ...Beautiful new blog, beautiful pictures, beautiful you!Britahttp://britah.typepad.com/i-got-it-on-film/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2825412793517402149.post-45269356672400201512010-12-27T10:30:06.111-06:002010-12-27T10:30:06.111-06:00lovely post!

What great photos! What a won...What a great post! What great photos! What a wonderful woman! (whew. that was a lot of excitement for a monday morning.)<br /><br />1. I love your new camera and totally get just feeling it in your hands. What kind did you get? I've been doing that for 18 months now, but it'd def time to take some classes; I've reached my maximum natural potential, I think. :D<br /><br />2. Shout out to Jesus on your blog never hurts! Don't feel guilty. You have three young children that need your attention all. the. time. If you think for a second that kind of intensity doesn't add to your stress (which leads to your depression), you're mistaken. In fact, I didn't fully realize how demanding it was having small children until I didn't anymore. Now that they're three and five...life is easy breezy. Give it another year or two and I think motherhood will feel completely different for you too. In the meantime, you know Jesus in your heart, and He knows that. I think raising up those children is a Godly effort, all in itself! XOXO<br /><br />3. I couldn't love Judah's legs more. Seriously. They remind me so much of my chubby baby's legs. That's not something you ever forget the feel of. Thanks for sharing that bare-leg photo so I could remember my infants again. <br /><br />Muah. Happy Monday. :DLeannehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17020780856206891718noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2825412793517402149.post-80118058967031516082010-12-27T09:03:40.411-06:002010-12-27T09:03:40.411-06:00Glad your holiday was so good.

I think it was our best CHristmas yet.<br /><br />Funny about Suvi. She wants to color the world! And baby JuJu there with his dimples, under the tree. Will you please Fed-Ex that kid to me? I need to squeeze his widdle chubby cheecks, mmmm!<br /><br />I really appriciate your frankness and openess. If more people would talk about depression like it was a faulty gallbladder, we would all be able to heal quicker. Without shame. I have had to jump hurdles of shame.....but now when I feel stronger, I don't give a darn who I make uncomfortable. The people who squirm---do so because they haven't been able to come forward YET. <br /><br />After an "episode" I always marvel afterward at God's teaching tools. He has a way of bringing us to our knees, so we can leave the rest behind and just Believe. Christmastime miracles! <br /><br />OK OK. I will just write a book and leave you be. Merry Christmas, Miss Jenny.<br /><br />-BAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
