These are the days of Grace~~ Happiness cannot be traveled to, owned, earned, worn or consumed. Happiness is the spiritual experience of living every minute with love, grace and gratitude. By Denis Waitley
About Me
- cltgrace
- Chicago, Illinois, United States
- Glowing, gloating mom of one bright lil girl. My days are filled with ballerina dances, books, balls and bubbles along with all that comes with being a mom. My real, full time job is to teach Grace how to love God, herself and others. On the side, I am in private practice as a Child Development Specialist and Developmental Therapist working with infants/toddlers with special needs. I absolutely LOVE IT! It's really not even fair to call it work. Whew! I finally earned that Speech Language Pathologist degree, license and all. A 2nd Masters is under the belt. EARN being the key word. Thank you, Lord! HA! I live for God and love this journey despite rough terrain at times. I love where it has taken me and I'm learning to be content back home again. Remember: you cannot drive with your eyeballs glued to the rear view mirror- it is only for glancing back!

Dancing with our Maker
Sooner or later you figure out life is constructed specifically and brilliantly to squeeze a man into association with the Owner of heaven. It is a struggle, with labor pains and thorny landscape, bloody hands and sweaty brow, head in hands, moments of severe loneliness and questioning, moments of ache and desire. All this leads to God, I think... Matter and thought are a canvas on which God paints, a painting with tragedy and delivery, with sin and redemption. Life is a dance toward God, I begin to think. And the dance is not so graceful as we might want. While we glide and swing our practiced sway, God crowds our feet, bumps our toes, and scuffs our shoes. So we learn to dance with the One who made us. And it is a difficult dance to learn, because its steps are foreign. - Donald Miller

Hi Carmen,
My husband was walking past as I was watching your little slide show, and he thought Gracie was Natalie. That is really a neat slide show. Man, some people know how to do all the cool things on their blogs!

Carmen!!!
All right, I admit, I didn't get to read your entire blog entry, but I enjoyed those pictures. I have got to see Grace (or do I say Gracie?) one day. She's a cutie pie! (And I was reminded again of your smiling face--in spite of it all.)
Thanks for your responses on my blog site. I still have not figured out why the comments on my Blog #2 are being added to Blog #1. The comments on my 3rd blog entry seem to be going to the right place. GO FIGURE.
ANYWAY, I wish you & yours (aka Grace) a Happy Thanksgiving!
- Tom
P.S. You've become a WIZ at blogging, I can tell!
