Congratulations on your book, Sara! I've been slowly but steadily reading through it and its message has been on my mind all day. I was given the opportunity today to be almost kid-free, minus the nursing baby, and I had a few ideas for special things I could do in town that I can't easily do with our whole crew. Instead, we had our second vehicle die before my husband needed to go to work, so baby and I are at home for the day. My jogging stroller is in the vehicle he took and the baby is extra fussy, limiting me to the rocking chair. It's not gone at all how I hoped. I have definitely shed some tears and been sad, but I am trying to look at how the boundary lines, that I wouldn't have chosen, today might be a gift, and being honest about my feelings with Him. And I have a little extra time to read more today, and I look forward to that. 😊 Thank you for your work in sharing your *timely* message. It's a gift, for sure!
Your book arrived yesterday—can’t wait to start reading!
Another interesting point about CS Lewis (which you may already know) is that while he was writing most of his books, he lived with his deceased wartime friend’s demanding and bitter mother, and was constantly interrupted by her insipid requests for help around the house. So not even longtime childless bachelors have the Shangri La experience with the creative life. Most times it seems it must be eked out in the margins.
God bless you and your family as you celebrate this newest milestone!!
I was so excited to see my book arrive yesterday! I have wished that I could join for the earlier videos, but life didn't allow. -my limitations, I guess! So ready to read!
Congratulations, dear Sara. You're such a wonderful wordsmith, my friend. It's such a pleasure to read your words. Like you, this is my favourite book of yours. I hope you're able to enjoy the rest of the week.
Sara you are amazing how you can write so eloquently with all the distractions and people in your life and find the time is one thing, but the deep thoughts that come through your wrt. You are one of my favorite authors. Thank you so much!
Wow. How wise to compare writing about Jesus to wartime— especially in this age of distraction. I’ve loved your other books and can’t wait to read this one. Thank you for bravely fighting to get the important writing finished.

Lots of pressing ... can sometimes lead to deeper thoughts 🥴😂
