Winner of DotMom Tickets!

So sorry ya’ll – I promised to draw the name of the winner last night after I got home from my weekend at The Cove, teaching workshops for a military marriage weekend – and that thought completely went out of my head when I walked into the house and saw this -

Best. Welcome. Home. Ever.

Best. Welcome. Home. Ever.

 

So after a great, refreshing few hours last night spent with my guys, making this wife and mama very happy (because a huge bonus was the kitchen was also entirely clean when I walked in and we had Chinese takeout so no cooking (double bonus!)) –  I woke up at 4 a.m. this morning and remembered “EEK! I forgot to make one other mama very happy!”

Using Random.org, Comment #1 was selected (going by order of first to last as they were posted). A HUGE CONGRATULATIONS to Leeann Griffith! She and a friend will have their registration completely covered for their fun getaway this weekend to DotMom!

By the way – it’s not too late for you to register! Just because you didn’t win, you should still most definitely think about coming, especially if you’re already in the Dallas area, or within a couple of hours. Come on ladies! We can think of every reason in the world NOT to take time out for ourselves because we have so much going on with our lives and our families, but I’m telling you – when you DO – the benefits to our lives and to our families are HUGE.

For more information, visit the DotMom Dallas Registration Page. It is going to be fantastic!

Hey mom: need encouragement?

We have exactly one week yesterday that my son starts back to school. I don’t know about any of you, but I am ready! While I love the less hectic pace of summer time for my son, it makes my scheduling for writing, ministry (and yes, blogging), so, so much harder. I do so much better with routine (and 6 hours of uninterrupted focus). I can focus on work when Caleb’s at school, and I can focus on Caleb the rest of the time. Makes for a much happier mama.

Speaking of happy mamas… I want to invite you to an awesome conference I just found out I have the privilege of taking part in! LifeWay has started a new conference called dotMom. I believe their first year was last year – I have a great friend, Dori, who went and LOVED it. She said if you can go, you absolutely need to go! So I’m excited that I get to go to their next one which is September 21-22 in Birmingham! Yay! So what can you expect? I’m so glad you asked!
