What I’m up to. . .

September 4, 2008 | calendar, community, family, interviews

I’ve recovered nicely. The surgery couldn’t have gone better. I have five small stitches lining my upper lip, kind of like a small caterpillar.

Last night I got to hang out with 20 women in a new small group for moms. The win/win for me is that I knew about half of the women well, but made 10 new friends. I had an outline, handouts, you know, the usual, but the discussion took on its own life as women opened up, shared their doubts, encouragement, and honestly looked at hard parenting can be sometimes.

I love talking to the crowds, but wow I love sitting in the small settings among friends talking about things that women care about.

I couldn’t sleep last night because I was already thinking about next week’s topic: parenting styles - authoritive, permissive, and authoritarian. Fun stuff, right?

I am also having a blast at Momlogic as the host of the new community, Christian Momlogic. We are growing, and this week we talked about the challenges of parenting a young teen. Next week we are talking about “Is There Really Sex After Kids?” with author and parenting and marriage expert, Jill Savage.

Believe me, it was a fun and enlightening conversation and it should be a good week. I hope you’ll join us at Christian Momlogic!
