My Beautiful Daughter Elisabeth




When your daughter helps you figure out how to blog and find pictures on your computer, this is what happens. She finds a picture of herself! 


I have to say, it is nice to have daughters to help you figure out technology! It has been refreshing having Elisabeth home to help around the house and be good company. I love hearing her laugh and listening to her wisdom and seeing her love for God and people. I really enjoy her sweet fellowship and will miss her when she goes back to school! 
Praying for God to direct her steps as she makes her plans.

    Haha! That first picture of me is really funny. I miss being home sometimes, but I am thankful to be back here.

Stuck at Home? What’s a Mother to do?

We have been dependent on so many things. Even Home-schoolers are not used to being at home to do school. We’ re often depende nt on co-ops to teach our children. We drive them around and get others to teach them instead of teaching them at home. C o-ops come in all shapes and sizes. They are a great option and a blessing. They provide friends, tutors for subjects we don’t feel as confident in . T hey give us a sense of community. We are also dependent on various other groups such as sports, dance, mock trial, b ible studies etc. None of these are bad things in and of themselves, but maybe we have looked to these too much and became so crazy busy that we did not have time to rest and be quiet before the Lord . And now f or many of us if not most, in our town, state, country and around the world, we are suddenly sheltering at home because of the covid19 pandemic that has hit the world. W e find ourselves alone at home with our children and spouse for an indefinite amount of...

Smile

Smile I rushed out the door into the world. Anything could happen. I may get in a car accident. I may trip and break my leg. They might not have everything I need at the store. They might not have toilet paper! I may get corona virus! I was going outside of my bubble into the scary world. I was going to the grocery store. It is not my favorite thing to do anyway but I used to enjoy it more because there were other humans there to talk to and to smile at. Now I am not so sure. Now all I see is masked men and women and children. It is not a happy sight. I may see someone I know and not recognize them. Everyone just looks so impersonal. It seems like another world where you can not recognize any one. I miss going out in public and seeing people’s expressions and smiles. I miss talking even small talk in the grocery isles. I miss the joy of seeing someone I know and getting a chance to chat and catch up on our families, children, grandchildren, parents, friends, while we stand in fron...

MISSING MICAH

January 9, 2013 It is amazing how time goes by so fast. It was 7 years ago December 17, 2012 that Micah died. I can hardly believe it. Some days it seems like it was yesterday. I am still missing Micah and I know I always will. Here is a poem I wrote shortly after he died. I had always wanted to rewrite it and edit it but now I just don’t have it in me to do that. So here it, still needing to be tweaked! Monday, January 2, 2006          MISSING MICAH ,        written by Laura Leake You know him by his face. Bright clear blue eyes Curly soft brown hair, with a spot of grey on his left side Smiling, always, even when in pain Making silly faces and joking I miss his face I wish I could touch his face, Kiss his cheek or forehead Rake my hands through his curly locks, comb his hair gently back. Talking kindly or being funny Making some kind of joke I miss his voice, his laugh and h...
