		<description><![CDATA[Can we get some praise on up in here? 2012 I deemed the year of healing, and its moving right along in that direction. And its only January 26th. God is good. I love that sometimes you simply have to ask and be willing to take a step forward and He will answer. Soul healing [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Strangely, yes, I am thankful for tough times. I know that sounds weird, who likes to go through a rough patch in life or have a bad day? I don&#8217;t. But in hindsight I am thankful for them because they stretch and grow me in new ways.  They build character. They refine me, like a [...]]]></description>

She watches too much TV. Doesn&#8217;t eat enough fruits and veggies and instead eats too many sweets. I forget to start our day in prayer, or [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[When I was pregnant with Kaylee and Savannah, I didn&#8217;t have a wedding ring on my finger. I was still a teenager. In one case, I hadn&#8217;t finished high school, in the other I hadn&#8217;t finished college. I didn&#8217;t have much money, my own house to live in, a permanent job. Walking around school, work, [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[As you probably gathered from my post yesterday, I&#8217;m freaking out a tiny bit. Fear of another miscarriage has a tight hold on me, to the point that it has been hard to even trust the same God that has helped me through so much in my short 22 years of life.  The problem is [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;ll be honest with you guys, I&#8217;m burned out.  I started writing years ago at 16 as an escape, in a sense. To get words and feelings out, to share memories and experiences. To share them with others with the hope that they too could relate, or at least see a glimpse of what the [...]]]></description>

And it will only get worse.  Which, is why I&#8217;m glad I took a week off to figure out what is really important in my [...]]]></description>

Exciting birthdays go something like this: I can&#8217;t wait to be 13, I&#8217;ll be a teenager! I can&#8217;t wait to be 16, I can drive then! I can&#8217;t wait to be 18, I&#8217;ll be a legal adult! And [...]]]></description>
