Laughter
Oh how I love the feeling of just laughing, especially when I'm laughing with one (or all of) my kids! Laughter is such an essential part of my life that when it's not around I feel dead inside. I believe God likes it when we laugh and I hold laughing as an...
Wasted time?
Being totally honest with you...the last year has sucked, for me. I felt angry and bitter for being "thrown" into this country which I just don't fit into, unable (or unwilling) to make friends, not understanding (or agreeing) with much of the cultural differences,...
