My Heart's Capacity Grew


Because my goal is to write more, I figured I’ve got to start somewhere :) update: we now have TWO girls. Eileen Grace Luiken (nickname Eila) is now five months old and our Jemma Ruth is two and a half. God’s grace and goodness to us is immense and overwhelming.



This picture is from a writing conference I went to in October. And also I thought it was a good capture of my life most days! Baby pack strapped to me, toddler running around. At least I have make up on this pic ;) but YES I’ve been working on a book. Most of my writing energy has gone to that (and by writing energy I mean literally 5 -10 minutes on my phone of my own time!). It’s a young adult science fiction with some counseling elements, some thoughts on adoption, some thoughts on technology and our current culture, some thoughts on morality. A good mix HAH. Another writer said are you trying to do too much? Probably. But it’s my first try for a novel so hey! And just because she suggested that by golly I’m going to work it even harder.



She loves her hands <3



And this one is as cute and crazy as ever. And tests boundaries every day. God has taught me a million and one things with her little toddler self.



Because babies :)



Because sisters :)
