I've posted before and continue to read you - Your writing SPEAKS to me and I have forwarded more than one of your posts to friends, shared them on facebook, etc. Your blog is a ministry to many.

I miss seeing you. 'Member how you brought us dinner one night, right after my oldest was born, and it was pizza, b/c you weren't up for cooking, but it turned out (and I'm sure you knew) that you were expecting? Anyway, I don't want a shot at the gift card. Starbucks is completely unappealing this trimester.

That is perhaps, the upside of not being too visible. Your fans click on your blog with much anticipation. <br /><br />Whether you post often or everyday, with or without an incentive, I bet you will still enjoy a loyal following. I will be there for sure even if I do not comment often because I just love the way you write and I can just feel how much love you put behind your every post. You deserve all the blog love that you're gettin from all over the world.<br /><br />xxsupermachttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02971566837164758854noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1540171404871181369.post-82567846324173087442011-08-28T19:58:48.803-04:002011-08-28T19:58:48.803-04:00Hi - I've really enjoyed reading your blog.

I've "met" some other 'friends' through your blog, but I am happy to have met you in person. Your smile and laughter are contagious. AND I'll never look at a plate of food again without thinking of photographing it first ;)<br />I hope you continue to post your thoughts, ideas and struggles. It seems we share a lot of the same ones.<br />Blessings,<br />LynneLynne in NChttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08062796052551511879noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1540171404871181369.post-67984982226220727532011-08-28T11:00:29.152-04:002011-08-28T11:00:29.152-04:00I LOVE reading your blog. Every time I see "...I LOVE reading your blog. Every time I see "A La Mode" pop up in my reader it is the first one I go to. Before the blog was born, I benefited so much from a season that you shared life, girl time with me...it was like having the older sister that I always wished for. You're blog is still that way for me. I benefit so much from you sharing life, God's romance, redemption and grace...and when I read I still feel like I get the wisdom of an older sister passing along what she has learned. Thank you for sharing these precious, vulnerable, valuable places in your heart with us. <br /><br />I was telling my husband a few weeks ago how much I like you're blog. If I were to sum it up in one way it is because I always feel moved by your words that point me to grace and Christ. <br /><br />I hardly ever comment (but I read every post) because I always have an email length comment - and I'm always fighting the urge to edit what I say (what if I come across as socially awkward in the comments / misspell a word/ ect.) I always tell myself I'll send that long comment in the form of an email - but never find time :( so in the spirit of keeping it real I'm going to publish this comment. <br /><br />I just became a follower, and I have subscribed to this blog through my google reader for a few years now. (I'm totally a safe stalker.)<br /><br />Love you!<br />ReneeReneehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09459656264050917125noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1540171404871181369.post-84725981614952323862011-08-27T21:17:05.152-04:002011-08-27T21:17:05.152-04:00I'm here.

I am SO not good at that, but it's usually because I am nursing a little one and have to type over her head. But I compose really great comments, haha! I hear what you are saying with ramping up your blog. I have only been able to move from one to another: from Adventures in Living and Learning, to { with eager hands } <br />I really enjoy what you have to say, and I smile every time you post about homeschooling, because in the time I lived in your neck of the woods, I wouldn't have pegged you as a homeschooler...'course, I wouldn't have pegged myself, either. Surprise, surprise!<br />Keep on blogging and we'll keep on reading!Sallyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00151901062203697334noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1540171404871181369.post-24036696336073378732011-08-27T14:54:40.232-04:002011-08-27T14:54:40.232-04:00I am soooooo looking forward to your "31 Days...I am soooooo looking forward to your "31 Days of Real" I could have used a series like that when I was raising my young child, working full time, and trying to also be the wife I was called to be(oh perfect daughter, sister, daughter-in-law, church member). I know it would have been an encouragement. I often felt like I was the dysfunctional one and did not have it together on so many fronts. It took along time for me to be the "brave one" and break the silence.<br /><br />My daughter is now 19, I enjoy much more time with my husband, but still struggle ...as I think about how most of the time " I just don't quite fit the mold" in my career. So I know I will enjoy your blog even more in the coming days.<br /><br />I will be in China when you start the Get Real series. I will let you know if you are blocked or not! <br />Karla Ontiveros Karr-- littlekk72@gmail.comK.
