I guess I’m a lot of things: a wife, a mom, a daughter, a sister, a crafter, a cook, a reader, a writer, a homemaker, a pianist, and probably a lot more too. But at the end of the day, I’m just a Christian trying to find and obey God’s will.
Was just thinking (and writing to a friend) that change is really the only way that we have to identify God’s faithfulness in our lives. I could look back through history and see that God is a faithful sort of being, but in my own life, such constancy would blend with the backdrop were it [...]
The alarm went off a little early today, and I reminded Ryan that it was for him. There were 15 minutes of coffee grinding and getting dressed and chatting before he ran out the door, and I found myself here on my couch, curled up in a blanket but enjoying the cold of a new [...]
There are some new pictures on our flickr site.
Sitting in my armchair with the window behind me cracked open. Mmm. Smell that grass.
A bird singing, loud and clear, over and over: “Do-Ti-Sol—” (”Sol” with a definite vibrato, not unlike the kind that 5-year-old girls affect after watching a PBS operatic special.)
Finding the find-of-finds: Matelasse in the right pattern and right color! Baby bedding, [...]
A day warm with sunshine, fresh with a breeze. Ahh.
Wearing a skirt and flip flops all day because it’s comfortable… finally.
A balmy evening with no mosquitos. Perfect.
Yay for May.
Yup, my name is Danica. Like the race car driver, whose name I know, but whose career I know nothing about. A Nascar fan I am not. Things like reading, playing piano, gardening, cooking, sewing, writing, and keeping my bathroom bleached are more up my alley. Read more »My maiden name is Sinclair (not Patrick), and I come from good stock. (So says my husband, anyway!) I'm the oldest of 9 kids--and my parents are neither insane, uninformed, or Catholic. They're actually the best parents you could ask for. Seriously. (And, consequently, I think pretty highly of my siblings, too, whose blogs you can access from the links below.) I've joined a new clan, though, and my husband and I have been "leaving-and-cleaving" for 2 years and counting. We have a son who you'll read much (too much?) about. Oh. And there are pictures of him, too--hundreds of them--should you care to click on over to my flickr account. I'm a stay at home mom who is redefining that title--I literally stay at home as much as I possibly can. I love to be home! Home, by the way, is in Northern California, although my roots are in a lil' ol' town in Northern New York. Lastly, I take all blame for any ridiculous, outlandish, illogical posts. Anything worth commenting on or linking to is due to my husband's encouragement. In the spirit of the Little engine That Could, "He thinks I can, He thinks I can, He thinks I can,...", and sometimes, that's all a wife needs.
