Inadequate Mother... Glorious Savior: September 2013

http://taradaukas.blogspot.com/2013_09_01_archive.html

Inadequate Mother. Glorious Savior. Friday, September 20, 2013. A "New" Kind of First Day of School. This year we had a very different type of “first day” of school. Trevor and Rylee ventured out into the big wide world of school outside the home for the first time! I cried like a baby with all the kindergarten moms! I cried all summer, I cried the first two weeks of school. Lots of tears. Not for them though. they were like "bye mom! This is the best day of my life! That was a gift from God. That da...

Inadequate Mother... Glorious Savior: Thankful for 30

http://taradaukas.blogspot.com/2009/01/thankful-for-30.html

Inadequate Mother. Glorious Savior. Monday, January 05, 2009. I couldn't learn how to be a submissive, respectful wife to the man I loved with all my heart until I was actually married and realized how deficient I was in those areas. I couldn't receive the grace that came with motherhood (sleepless nights, tantrums, loving someone so much you thought your heart would explode) until being a mother. I couldn't learn the joy and thrill of church planting until planting a church with a group of dear friends.

Inadequate Mother... Glorious Savior: July 2014

http://taradaukas.blogspot.com/2014_07_01_archive.html

Inadequate Mother. Glorious Savior. Wednesday, July 30, 2014. Well if you check the date of my last post, September 2013, it's been about a year. And I'd say it's been about that long to process sending two of my kids to a charter school versus our prior six years of homeschooling. I know right? Glad you aren't me! It's been so good for my soul! My righteousness is in Christ alone. So freeing! This year was incredible. I was blown away in every aspect by the quality of teachers at this school, the cu...

Inadequate Mother... Glorious Savior: A Humbling Experience

http://taradaukas.blogspot.com/2009/02/humbling-experience.html

Inadequate Mother. Glorious Savior. Monday, February 02, 2009. I did my assessment the first day of class and the instructor being oh so sweet, after taking my measurements and weight, was like, "tara! It's so humbling always being the one lagging behind. Asthma, out of shape body, says "don't be proud, take it." So I cut through. I'm spotted by some little girls having recess outside. One sees me and yells, " CHEATER! THAT GIRL IS CHEATING! CHEATER, CHEATER, PUMPKIN, EATER! Oh, I laughed so hard when I ...

Inadequate Mother... Glorious Savior: The Climb

http://taradaukas.blogspot.com/2013/05/the-climb.html

Inadequate Mother. Glorious Savior. Thursday, May 16, 2013. I started with a steep climb. Halfway up I questioned my poorly chosen start. Maybe I wanted to remind myself just how out of shape I truly am. Or maybe it was the lack of caffeine in my body not allowing my brain to function properly. Regardless I made it up the initial climb and began my journey. One tired limb in front of the other. Music going. Truths being sung. 8220;You will not abandon me”. 8220;prone to wander Lord I feel it”. Disgusted ...

Inadequate Mother. Glorious Savior. Tuesday, February 26, 2013. Beauty and a Beast. Presenting, a thousand photo's of Trevor, as Chip the Teacup:. This was before the curse :). So when Taylor told me that he picked beforehand what girl he wanted to let the singing of Happy Birthday to him it didn't phase me. Man oh man. Here's a few more of the singing time. Here are few pictures of her. I'm hoping to post some video of her from the play she was in before Beauty and the Beast on the blog soon! I'm a moth...

Inadequate Mother... Glorious Savior: Family Pictures

http://taradaukas.blogspot.com/2009/12/family-pictures.html

Inadequate Mother. Glorious Savior. Wednesday, December 02, 2009. I've spent quite a bit of time taking family pictures this season for people and last week it was our family's turn. Our friend Luz came and stayed thanksgiving week with us. We've been hosting her stuff for her while she's traveled back and forth to Seattle. She graciously agreed to spend one of her AZ afternoons snapping some family pictures for us and I've spent the past week editing them. Let's start with reality first. Another attempt...

Not Ours To Keep. I started writing this song after reading Kisses from Katie. A outstanding and inspiring book! It almost didn't make ...

Inadequate Mother. Glorious Savior. Wednesday, December 23, 2009. This past weekend we threw the party of all parties. The Grace Church Christmas Feast! Man, oh man, was it a feast. Some members of our church love to cook, they are REALLY good at it and offered to cook for everyone. I offered my kitchen and house :) The night before we had a crew come and chop, slice, dice ect! Here's the menu just to give you an idea of what a feast it was:. Homemade egg rolls (that fried in their turkey fryer). After t...
