| Introduction | Following where God leads me. Kenya. The UK. Youth group here in the States. Sometimes it's doing the laundry. You may find me a) On the edge of my seat gripping a YA fantasy novel, b) Smelling gorgeous flowers, c) Having a blank look about me when really, I'm deciphering a metaphor from nature, d) Watching a British mini-series - how are they so addictive?!?! and e) Hording thai food. On second thought, sharing it is way more fun. |
