What you should know....Influence Style


I am a yoga-pant wearer but I promise you & myself this weekend I'm wearing real clothes. I mean it's serious business when I have jeans and a blazer packed. 

I love coffee, if you can't tell. Like a lot. So don't be surprised if every time you see me I have coffee in hand. There's a reason this blog tagline is "Where Jesus, COFFEE and chaos collide"

I am shy at first. But I'm guessing the real me won't take long to come out. You might even have to tell me to shut up because I LOOOOVVVVEEEE to talk.

There's a huge chance you will see me crying several times this week. I tend to feel deeply. 

I will not stand still during that Saturday night worship time. Nope. I just can't stand still. I don't jump all over the place, but I must move to the music. 

Yes I am completely open to you playing with my hair. For hours.

Friday night I was suppose to be going to the married ladies dinner but now I'm going to the Foster/Adopt dinner and I can't wait to be surrounded by like women whose hearts bleed for the orphan, whether that orphan be in another country or right down the road. 

I am super excited to meet all my friends!

We are not part of his story and he is not part of ours

"Write drunk; edit sober" -Ernest Hemingway I've never actually attempted this, but tonight I am. I've had my wine and if you know me at all it doesn't take much to get my lightheaded & giggly. I'm truly not a Windau (my maiden name) when it comes to my alcohol consumption. I put my catholic roots to shame. I'm ok with that. I'm not a mean drunk, but a purely giggly & say inappropriate thing drunk. Today stung. It stung hard. Last Tuesday we got a call for a little 5 month old baby. Technically we got a call for 4 boys but for reasons that I will not share, we could only say yes to little guy. And then there was waiting. And more waiting because our agency couldn't find a home for 4 of the little guys, they came from a sibling group of 6. All 6. Boys. That would be headed for permanent custody. In my mind all the things lined up. I had prayed for an orphan. I had been learning about how to bond with a baby in the adoption sens...
