Soul's Expression: What Happened?
http://souls-expression.blogspot.com/2014/06/what-happened.html
Tuesday, June 17. So I've had to take the StrengthsFinder 2.0 quiz a couple of times during my profesional life. I can't remember which ones tend toward, but I remember the gist: I always am asking "What Happened? As a major function of my life. And, as is par for the course for this blog, it has been 2 months since I last posted. So, What Happened? Well, April is a crazy month in Academia, as since Adam I live in a residence hall, our life got increasingly crazy. Had so much meaning? Charis and I slept ...

Soul's Expression: September 2013
http://souls-expression.blogspot.com/2013_09_01_archive.html
Thursday, September 26. Wow, what a month. Well, I can't believe I'm typing out a post. The last three weeks have been full of ups and downs and lots of crying - for both baby and me! The entire birth story and pictures are here: www.santiagochronicle.blogspot.com . I won't repeat the entire story, and Adam does a better job of writing, anyway. But for those of you who are curious, that is where we're doing the great majority of posting about Charis. Ok, I couldn't resist a couple of pictures! Charis ado...

The Dowdey Family: The Boys' Tree
http://howdeydowdey.blogspot.com/2014/12/the-boys-tree.html
December 9, 2014. This year we have a 100% kid-decorated and kid-friendly tree! The boys each picked out some non-breakable ornaments and then got to decorate it all by themselves! I wish I had been able to capture their excitement as it was absolutely precious! As you can see, we have many "gaps" in the decorations, especially since Caleb won't leave them alone and must "fix" them! Way to go boys you did a great job! Looks kind of like ours. The girls did 99% of the decorating! December 09, 2014.

Soul's Expression: February 2015
http://souls-expression.blogspot.com/2015_02_01_archive.html
Sunday, February 8. What 40 days of prayer and parenting a small human does. At the turn of the year, I was in a pretty miserable place. You see, Christmas was hard. It didn't feel like Christmas, for one. Which may have made it a little easier to have not returned to the states to see family, because it didn't feel. During that time, we started reading Prayer. Not that what I was asking for was something sinful. Not in a clearly blatantly sinful way. I was just praying for my way. For delive...Now juxta...

Soul's Expression: My Mom
http://souls-expression.blogspot.com/2014/03/my-mom.html
Monday, March 31. One of the best moments of my life was giving birth to my baby girl with my husband and mom there with me. But Adam was there. Even if he didn't get up each time in the middle of the night or feed her for the 1,000th time that day, he was an emotional support and often. Gave me a break by feeding her and getting up at 2 in the morning. On top of it all, he did the lion's share of housework to keep the apartment in working order. To have done all that I have done, but to do it solo.
