Older posts: I have un-published (I am super blog-savvy here...) a few old posts that were dramatic and a little more personal than I wanted to share in this new context, but I've left a few harmless ones. I left all my posts from New Zealand, but I will warn you right now...they are reeeeaaalllly loooonnnng and drawn out. I even get bored reading through them and they are my memories! The rest are pretty random, but there is one post in particular that I just recently discovered. I completely forgot about it until I was going through all my posts earlier this week. It's the one titled 'A Letter' from April 2009. It is basically a letter to my future husband and, among a few other things, I say, "Oh, and I'm praying for that job I applied for. Maybe you should too...maybe it will bring me to you." I did end up getting that job and on my very first day of work, I met the man who, 2 1/2 years later, would become my husband :-) It's so amazing to realize such incredible answers to prayers!
To any confused family members or friends: In an effort to decrease our interwebs "footprint", we've developed some code-names. I am Hannah (a title character from a Wendell Berry novel), my husband is Jayber (another title character from another Wendell Berry novel) and our little guy is Zork (the name of a stuffed alien I made for our son before he was born).
And last, but not least, I would like to introduce my 3 month old son, Zork!

Love the "praying for job, you should too" connection from your past link! and present life. Amazing....and encouraging. God knows all the hairs on our head! -LS
He's just the cutest little guy!!
The dramatic, personal posts are probably the most interesting ones. Too bad they're gone :(
I like the names - I read Hannah Coulter not too long ago; very enjoyable. But thinking of your husband as a Jayber cracks me up!
