Total Eclipse of the Heart

When I was younger, and my dad was a missionary, we used to do street ministry, and one of the dramas was to the song of "Total Eclipse of the Heart"... I almost titled this post "Turn Around," but I just couldn't do it without thinking of that awful eighties song.  Some of you might love it, but hearing it 5600 times every summer makes your realize JUST how awful it really is.

That was entirely random and has nothing to do with this post.

I feel as if I'm always blogging about change.  I've had a change of heart, I've changed my mind, etc.  Every few weeks, I feel like change is coming around.  Now, I don't know if this is just my personality looking ahead to something new and getting excited about what's to come.  It might be.  Really, though, I think I should just blame life.  And I say, Thank God for Change.  I don't know, I just think that a consistent realization that I need to grow or mold in an area is good, it's right, and it's just a tiny bit exhausting.

Well, again, recently, I've been feeling more change coming on.  Obviously, life just happens, and big things change it.  And the change has been lots of that, but it's also been lots of my heart and my mind.

First, a life thing:  one of my very best friends, who I threw the baby shower for, is due TODAY!  I know that her life is about to change, and I feel as if our lives are about to get just a little bit sweeter because of this new life.  Not to mention, now, even my husband has baby fever, which he told me very strongly last night ("I want one, Sarah.  I want one really bad."  It was so cute that I didn't even correct his grammar to "badly").

 

I totally didn't watermark this picture.  No time.  If you'd like to steal it, go ahead.

Also, I've been losing weight.  I bet ya'll didn't even know.  But I've been working incredibly hard and so far, I've lost a good amount.  I've lost almost all of the happy marriage weight I put on and my jeans are fitting.  Sorry, no pictures here. 

Most recently, however, I've had a huge burden on my heart for a big change coming up with Bon Blog Designs.  I'm not quite ready to share, but I ask that you would join with me in prayer as I take the next few steps, and then definitely share with you all on Monday what's been going on.  Don't worry, nothing bad.  Also, I've been having more business than ever really, and that's thanks to all of you guys for spreading the word.  You're so lovely, and I can't wait to share it with you.
