Recently I ran across this AMAZING blog about the life of a
mother. Not just any ol' mother -- but one who is trying to
manage the homelife of her not one, two, three, four, nor five... but SIX CHILDREN and the adventures that accompany it. Her writing is fresh, witty, and hilarious. Check out her online journal here!
She made the front page of the the local newspaper in her
hometown. If you've never heard about her, read this article FIRST. Then it will put her blog posts into perspective!

In light of these ridiculously stories from this very gifted and
talented writer, I too begin to wonder myself about life as people get
older. I used to think (and sometimes still do) that growing up
is a really hard thing to do, as it often involves change, discipline
(most people abhor that!), & increased personal responsibility, to
name a few. But now after reading several of this mom's entries
and talking to others that are more accelerated in life, I've come to
the not-so-eureka realization:
Life don't get any easier from here on out.
Though the fig tree does not bud
And there are no grapes on the vines,
Though the olive crop fails
And the fields produce no food;
Though there are no sheep in the pen,
And no cattle in the stalls,
Yet I will exult in the LORD,
I will rejoice in the God of my salvation.
Delivered.
