Kindergarten Writing Diva Mom

This morning I jumped up, put on my Mommy MuMu and made my sweetie pie some sausage and waffles for her first day of school. She woke up around seven. Smiled. Beamed actually. I wanted to cry. Prayed over her. We ate and talked about how fun today would be. She would go to Kindergarten and be a big girl; And I would go to my computer and write 2000 words of novel. We both did what we were supposed to do. I feel like a superhero now--Kindergarten Writing Diva Mom and Selah, my trusty smiley faced sidekick.

From other Mouths Monday

I'm writing my WIP, critiquing writing partners works, preparing my Deanne Gist interview, book reviewing, and thinking about a short story for the Faith*in*Fiction contest. So this week and probably the month I will be posting my favorite e-quotes of the day. This is Monday...Michael Spencer of InternetMonk wrote:

It is simply very difficult for many Christians to relate God to art if the art does not depict God in ways they recognize: Bible stories, familiar images, moralisms. To how God's universe, and our moral landscape, in images that are honest or even disturbing will be a difficult vocation, but a Christian must do the work of not only creating, but of conceiving the presence of God, truth and revelation within that vocation. You are such a person. You have the tenacity, but you must begin at the beginning. Know how your calling and your faith coincide in your artistic vision.
