I loved this essay by Pat Gohn on developing a practice of praying with others. That is NOT something I am generally comfortable with outside of a relatively structured church/pre-meal grace/bedtime situation. Nope. But I have discovered something lately (this is a real revelation, so get ready): I'm pretty sure God didn't put us down here for comfort. I know, right? Mind-boggling. That truth has been ringing across most of my days lately, though, so I figured I might as well embrace the discomfort a bit and try to provide some grace to those around me at the same time. So, uh, we'll see how it goes?

I've started reading 7: An Experimental Mutiny Against Excess which has only been reinforcing the discomfort thing. That is not a comfortable book. Has anyone else out there read it?

Lest you think I'm starting to become very holy and impressive (she says), the thing I've been most excited about this week is the new eyelash curler I got. It's heated. It's amazing.

Since Hallie posted about visiting Grace and mentioned something about Simon's being funny, and since I just recently discovered Grace's blog, I just fell down the rabbit hole of Simon Says posts. Oh. My. Gosh. I was laughing out loud at work, ya'll. I mean it's slow around here so no one cares, but that kind of behavior isn't exactly promotion-worthy. Worth it.

I love this baby stage. They're so cute and squishy and milky but also all big-eyed and cooey. Yum.

This weather in Southern California is weird. Hot, humid rain. It's like Florida's climate decided to take a little jaunt Westward. I'd like it to go home now.
