Don't ask why I was thinking about this today, but I was.
When my mom was pregnant with me she started making a Christmas stocking for me. I don't know if her goal was for me to use it my first Christmas or what, but she was making this stocking. She worked on it in the hospital after I was born, she worked on it in the hospital after my sisters were both born. (I'm beginning to think she only worked on it while she was in the hospital and thankfully that hasn't been very often). Anyway, I am now a legal adult and this stocking has yet to be completed. It has been a work in progress for at least nineteen years now, and I wonder if it'll ever be completed.
I've been a work in progress for at least nineteen years now, and I won't be completed until the day I die. Like my mom works on that stocking little by little (we'll pretend she works on it more than she really does), God works on our lives to draw us closer to and to be more like Him.

Since when have you had a blog?? Man, it kind of makes me want to go to church again. But that'll have to wait a week....
anyway, i'm RSSing this thing :-)
Since about Easter time.
I don't know what that means but I'm going to assume it means something like read it which is fine with me. Makes me remember I'm not just writing for myself. :-)
