Librarianisms


The house is a mess. My to-do list is a hundred and twelve points long. There is stuff everywhere and never enough time to get it all done...So, obviously, I thought this would be the perfect moment to re-arrange my home library. Good-bye colour co-ordinated shelves, and welcome back traditional categories.


...Wish me luck?

Rainy


It is rainy. And quiet. And super perfect for crafting, and lazing, and drinking lots of tea out of my favourite tea pot, and my new favourite mug of sappiness.

LambBaby



Welcome, third trimester. I am feeling rounder each day.

Happily Ever After



Being a church kid often means that there are lots of weddings happening. it's pretty nice to be able to celebrate so many happy happy couples. But sometimes, when the happy couple is especially excellent, and one of your favourite people in the world, it's just that much better.


This wedding was incredibly suited to the Mr. and Mrs. Everything was created and designed, including the bridesmaid's and bride's dress...by the bride herself. Yeah. That kind of awesome.

I love this life. I am so grateful for beautiful friends, and the chance to share in their joy.

Roe v. Wade




You allow us dignity
where we have mined the deepest trenches of our own disgrace.
Let the Princes stand in silence
with their hands lifted to their mouths.
I come for you.
Awe, and contemplation
The regrets of humanity 
and retribution.

What have we loosed?
The unearthing and exaltation.
I long to touch the faces 
of the tiny ones
realeased to heaven.
I love you, I love you.
I am wretched by your pain

by the evil,
knowing and unknowing, alike.

My hands are drawn to my mouth in horror.
I feel you moving in my womb.
I am overcome with terror
at little hands and feet wrenched away.
Going home eternal
All the little ones.
