It's been too long.
I haven't set word to paper for months and sometimes I fear I am by far the worse for it! But then, I am 1/3 again the Mom I was then, with two little girls having joined our family since my last post. I've been neglectful of this sacred place. I've been reckless with my heart in having done so. Writing is breath. I determine to begin again. But before I do, let me make introductions...
With their arrivals has come not only a new onslaught of chaos and madness in the every-dailiness of life, but also an unexpected downpour of peace. Not stillness, but peace. We feel complete. Made whole. For now... And with that peace, my heart has been renewed in both resolve and resources for this blog. My girls have taught me much. I never cease to be astonished at God's amazing ability to show Himself and His robust LOVE through the most fragile of beings. I find clarity in this chaos- and hope to begin the translation again. Please join. I have never seen Him more clearly than through the filter of motherhood. Perhaps you can relate?

Here is WHY I've been so neglectful...
Scarlette Rachele Peck, born about a week before my last post is now 17 months old. Ella Vivienne Peck, joining us in May of 2011 is now just over 3 months. They are the pink frill around the edges of our scrappy crew, and SO worth the wait!
