If you missed Part 1, of Christy’s video (and my intro explaining who she is) you can read/watch it here.

If you already watched Part 1, I’m sure you’re anxious for part 2, so here we go:

Well, I watched this (somewhat successfully) all while my four month old son wailed in his crib. It’s one of those nights. He won’t sleep and I feel helpless in every way… don’t know what else I could do to help him fall asleed. And I’m tired.
Anyway…..
Thank you for posting this video from Christy. Inviting the Glorious in to the mundane. Amen. Like you, I admire her greatly – as a woman and mother. Last week I downloaded your Inspired To Action ebook and read the whole thing (and going back and forth from laughing to crying to laughing again) a couple times. It’s as if I was Peyton Manning going to the Superbowl and I needed to memorize the “game plan”‘ that’s how I feel about your awesome book.

I couldn’t believe that I stumbled upon a woman that might just be my missing twin, HA! The song Invade by Watermark is THE song I always sing when I pray for my home and family. Sometimes I sing “invade his crib and her toddler bed, oh Lord….invade the walls of my heart and my sanity.” I could go on and on but I won’t bore you.

I CANNOT wait to give a shout to this blog out on my own. I think you’re genious. More than that, I think God has inspired you and, because you obeyed, you’re inspiring others.

I like how you write, I like WHAT you write and I like that you keep it real. So refreshing. No dilly dally, no sugar-coating, and no beating around the bush. Looking forward to every post God inspires you to write. As a new(ish) mom of two “chirren”, I need all the help I can get.

Heck, I went jogging for the first time in five years yesterday. I was fist pumping too! Today I feel like I got run over by a truck but that’s ok.

And (I don’t know why I’m compelled to tell you this) I have every intention of starting to wake up at 5:30 to have a little one on one with the Lord as soon as my boy starts sleeping through the night. As much as I want to start tomorrow I better be realistic and not burn out on my family. I simply cannot wait!!!!! This is a lot coming from a person who refuses to open the eyes before the sun comes up.

So excited……

So nice to “meet” you!
