Comments on: I AM HAVING AN IMPACT TODAY http://denisemira.com/blog/2008/04/15/i-am-having-an-impact-today/ “Ordinary is not good enough. Normal will not change the world. We are No Ordinary People, created by No Ordinary God, for No Ordinary Purpose. I refuse to live a Beige life, carrying out Business As Usual. Boring. I choose to live an adventure as a daughter of the King of Kings. I invite you to join me! It won’t always be pretty, but it will be genuine, and we will have an impact where we live.” Thu, 24 Jul 2008 02:53:59 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.3.3 By: Denise http://denisemira.com/blog/2008/04/15/i-am-having-an-impact-today/#comment-108 Denise Wed, 16 Apr 2008 16:10:36 +0000 http://denisemira.com/blog/2008/04/15/i-am-having-an-impact-today/#comment-108 Dearest Kathleen, I appreciate your humility and honesty in sharing your circumstances, struggles and human-ness. Thank you for taking precious time from your very busy life as a mom (and everything else you are!) to encourage me. You've blessed me and everyone else who pops in here to find strength and hope and laughter - have a wonderful day! May your heart sing as God's grace enfolds you and yours! In His love, Denise Dearest Kathleen,

I love the way you inserted "bulldog" into your self-description. It really takes dogged determination to get through some days as a homeschool mom, doesn't it? Math has always been the sore point at my house as well. I also appreciate what you said about not watching history DVDs to go to prayer meeting. I had back surgery 6 1/2 years ago and have six screws in my back. They are a constant source or irritation and I am never completely pain-free. I have used that as an excuse not to go to prayer meeting (and on many occasions one or both of Sunday services as well) and I am just now getting to the point where I realize I need to go to church no matter what I feel like. Tonight I will go to prayer meeting - thanks for the extra push. One last thing, I listened to your radio interview with HSLDA which led me to buy your book, No Ordinary Child, and I just want to tell you how much I appreciate it. I have only gotten about half-way through, but so far your enthusiasm and energy have given me a renewed vision of this thing we do called homeschooling. Thanks for that, too!
