Overloaded!

July 6, 2011June 27, 2017 Emily P. Blackwell

Well, folks, I’m overloaded.  Again.  I have a sickness.  It’s official.  But God is teaching me so much through Experiencing God!  And I want to tell you all about it.  But for now I will just have to share a journal entry. I give you the exact words of a barely awake Mama… You will

Oh Hunk of Mine

June 19, 2011June 27, 2017 Emily P. Blackwell

We were 17 and terribly in love…all “one day when we get married” and “never enough kisses.”  And he would babysit with me, playing shamelessly with those kiddos…oblivious to my house playing shennanigans.  I knew then that he would be an incredible Daddy and something about that made me love him a little deeper.  Right

One of THOSE mornings…

May 26, 2011June 27, 2017 Emily P. Blackwell

Today I woke up to toddler hands patting my face and saying, “Mommy,” with her small voice.  And then I got out of bed and changed her diaper, opened the blinds, let the dog out, poured up her smoothie, started the coffee, went to let the dog back in only to discover she had muddy

…And it’s only noon?

March 10, 2011June 27, 2017 Emily P. Blackwell

Do you ever look down at the clock to find that it’s only noon?  But surely not.  Surely you could not be this beaten, bruised, and humbled by noon.  And you think, “Would it be okay if we just hit reset and gave it another whirl?  Surely I can do better than this.  Surely.” Here’s

The way you move ain’t fair, you know…

January 7, 2011June 27, 2017 Emily P. Blackwell

I feel like you all should know that immediately after the saggy spirit sob story, I retrieved Miss Magnificent from her bed and, like any good mama, put Dora on for her.  It’s our evening routine – don’t judge.  I got some bacon-a-poppin’ for an impending dinner disaster that I totally saw coming but optimistically

How in the HECK did we end up together?!

August 18, 2010 Emily P. Blackwell

Some girls lay in bed as high school and college students begging that God would let them marry a minister. It’s true. I know them. They are nice, genuine women who I have a great deal of respect for. I was not one of ‘em. Nope. Never did I ever ask for a life in

My (Currently) Unwrappable Tuesday

August 17, 2010June 27, 2017 Emily P. Blackwell

So, today is Tuesday.  And originally I had planned to unwrap some goodness within this bad boy.  But then I found myself standing in my one year old’s room at 2 a.m.  And then I woke up and realized it was because she was screaming hysterically.  After some cuddle time with the Daddy and Mama,

Budget Blues

February 15, 2010 Emily P. Blackwell

I’ve always been very well cared for. Always had more than I needed. Never really wanted for anything. And I am exceedingly thankful for that! I wish that in my heart of hearts I never REALLY wanted for anything. Oh but I did, and I do, want for more. More than I need. More than

To be Fifteen-ish Again

December 5, 2009June 27, 2017 Emily P. Blackwell

Me with my buds – at fifteen-ish. I went to see New Moon this afternoon.  By myself.  After rewatching the first one, Josh decided that he definitely did not need to see the second one in theatres.  So off I went by myself (he, being the grand husband and daddy that he is, hung out
