pouring out my love like water, flowing down the banks of your heart...

About Me

free association...when I laugh I sound like a train, that is until I snort...I am perfectly capable of having a deep metaphysical conversation with you while dividing a popsicle for 3 children...I admire people who have the heart of a student and have learned how to learn...I never want to coast my way into the Kingdom-I hope I blaze the trail all the way home...I dream vividly & interactively (Brian wake up! We have to get off the Island the Volcano is going to explode!)...I enjoy talking and my mouth has been known to seize up when my brain works so fast that my mouth can't catch up(no comments please!)...honored to mentor & help others discover their purpose-it's amazing when Jesus asks us to partner with Him to establish His kingdom on this earth...perfect day: nothing to do but hang out with my husband and my kids and laugh all day long...2nd perfect day: snowy day, comfy sweats, wood burning stove, cup o'joe and an excellent book...last time I laughed so hard that my abs cramped up and I couldn't breathe: with Mike & Linda Smith when we visited Connecticut...surprised myself: when I found out my childhood dreams were part of my destiny (when I grow up I want to be a wife, a mommy and a teacher) and that makes me thankful...I love: teaching my own, it's the hardest thing and the most fulfilling thing I have ever done. This layout was handmade with love by the folks at My space or yours? Go get one!

My Interests

There are 2 events coming up that I would go to if I could. I believe you would be changed if you went to either of these. They are the Ignite Conference in Connecticut in April and The Call Nashville on 07.07.07. I went to The Call New England eleven days after 9/11 and it was intensely powerful. We see repeatedly in the bible occasions when believers gathered together to fast and pray for their generation. We can try to change things but if we don't start with prayer and fasting I believe our efforts are futile. Watch these videos and let me know what you think. CK out their myspaces- you'll find them in my friends. The Call Nashville

Music:

Sometimes you lose touch with things in life that at one time brought you joy. Music became one of those things for me. I grew up surrounded by musicians and great music. Sundays often meant jazz jam sessions in our living room with local musicians and some famous ones too. Remembering my father in the aftermath of his death has brought me in touch with something I once loved but left on the path somewhere along the way. Hope you like the music I share- let me know if you do.

Movies:

These make me laugh: What About Bob, Undercover Blues, So I Married An Ax Murderer, Chicken Little, Napolean Dynamite, School of Rock, The Court Jester,

Television:

Some of my current favs: MYTHBUSTERS ROCKS! Buster the Crash Test Dummy is my hero. AMERICAN CHOPPER! Really, I'm serious- I love Mikey. Good SciFi- not lame stupid sci-fi.HEROES- 'cause if I can't be a spy chick then I want to be a superhero. KIM POSSIBLE- the only descent spy chick on tv now that Alias is over. sniff...

Books:

What I'm Reading now: The Gospel of John; Into the Fire by Che Ahn; All Of A Kind Family; War, Terrible War.

Heroes:

Jesus, my husband, my kids, defenders of justice, Candy Simmons, Linda Smith, Jenny Appleton, & my momPassport World Preview
