A Quiet Summer
These first few weeks of summer have been quiet, to say the least. Busy still… but quieter for sure.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
It started after lots of arguing with God, myself, lamenting to Bryant and a couple close friends, then receiving some wise advice, that I left my part-time job at the church. I didn’t want to. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
But it was time to close that door and wait for another to open work-wise. I still don’t know if that means another job, more website design work, more speaking, more writing? ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
The unexpected door of “quietness” that has opened for me the past few weeks has been a gift.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀While life has still been busy between VBS, gymnastics, summer camps and such, God has gifted me with a quieter mind – with the sole focus of my family and kids this summer. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
What I thought was going to be an agonizingly long summer like many in the past between fighting kids, childcare stresses, etc., has turned out to be … well, quiet. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
There are still fights and some stresses, but overall, it’s quiet. What a gift right now.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

So I’m quieter here, as well. I’m still around, but posting online a little less and playing at home a little more.
