So I have been terribly busy these past months trying not to let the doors on the place I considered my 3rd home( 2nd being my in-laws). The 3rd, my church Streams of Hope, did have it's last service April 26th, 2009. This was a really sad day for me to say the least. The shocking thing to some of you is that I was in complete denial I thought I and a small group of others could single handled save something that god had other plans for. I have been hard at work trying to Charter a MOPS ( Moms of Preschoolers( a faith based support network)) group and have made some extremely close bonds with women who hold the same values I do. I started and stopped a full time job. And all this time I have been me I have not lost any part of me, at least not the me I want to be. So today and everyday I have to remind myself back to the basics Jama...God, family,friends, health, and happiness, and in reality they all go back to number one on that list.
P.S. I originally wanted to begin this blogging journey talking about a page on my trek to find others mother's like me out in cyberspace. I ran across a 36 year old mother and wife who had a sexual reference on her public page, I wondered if she realized how that made her look, and then I realized that I have done and said and shown pretty ugly and stupid sides of myself to the public at one time or another and someone still reached out and showed me Christ ( through good works or actions). So to this- an invite to our group and yes now I definitely hope she attends( even if it makes me delete this section of my blog).

I know all about denial. I was so surprised how much I was in denial about when I really looked at myself. It's hard but I'm proud of what were doing.
