Reverent Sundays: Why Don’t We See Biblical Miracles Today?

Welcome to today's installment of Reverent Sundays, where I write about an aspect of my faith. This can deal with recent books I have read on Christianity, my thoughts on religion and current issues, as well as particular messages I find touching and/or powerful. I am aware that most of my readers are not religious, and that is fine — you are more than welcome to not read these posts if they make you uncomfortable, enrage you, or bore you to tears. I am open to debates and discussions in the comments section as long as everyone remains respectful. Enjoy! The parting of the Red Sea. Joshua stopping the sun. Jesus raising Lazarus from the dead. The Bible is full of miracles such...

Helping Mommy Out

My mother has been telling me ever since Aerin was born that the best way I will survive the next two decades is by getting both girls to help me out as soon, and as often as possible. Obviously this is still an unreasonable request to ask of Aerin, but now that Claire is walking — and growing more curious and precocious with each passing day — we have slowly begun to teach her little ways to help around the house, and with her little sister.

This Is How You Look When You’re Drunk

(Ed. note: I have decided to hide the rest of this post from the front page so that the movie doesn’t automatically start playing for those who do not want to see it. Click the link below to see the entire post!)

Happy Birthday to My Best Friend!

J turns 34 today. I see no reason to hide his age, because he becomes more handsome, more delightful, and more lovable to me with each passing year.  A snapshot of my handsome husband as he waits for me on our wedding day.(Photo by Danny Weiss) Circa 1997. We look SO young here! Our bodies may have aged, but we still love each other with achildlike giddiness. Thank you for sharing your life with me. Thank you for all that you are and all that you do. May all your wishes come true, and more. :-)...
