My husband, Greg & I will be tag-team writing once again this year. This is the fourth year that we have challenged ourselves to write everyday during the month of October. Thank you Myquillyn for creating this challenge & sharing it with your friends!

Now, what can you expect from 31 Days of Truth or Dare?

Playing Truth or Dare takes you back to being a kid, right? Awkwardly sitting in a circle with a bunch of your friends anxiously waiting your turn to play. What should I pick? A truth? A dare? The pressure was a little ridiculous sometimes depending on who was sitting in that circle with you.

We aren’t going to make you that uncomfortable this month. Well, maybe a little. Can you see the little smirk on our faces?

By the end of the month, you’ll learn to love those smirks! I promise.

On the weekdays, Greg & I will both be answering Truth questions – some are hilariously fun, some will be ridiculously honest.

The Dares will be posted on the weekends & they will be challenging, instigating & perhaps get under your skin & make you a little uncomfortable.

Everyday we will encourage you to participate each day with us, to answer the Truth questions in the comments & to share your thoughts about the Dares.

What are some of the Truth questions that you can expect this month?

What is one secret you have never told anyone?

 

If you & one other person were the only people alive on Earth & you could pick that person, who would it be?

What about the Dares?

The Dares will cover various topics ranging from tattoos to church to technology.

One more thing!

You will have the opportunity to pick a Dare for us! Greg is excited about that & I’m super nervous… We will have all the information about that on Day 4.

We hope you’ll stick around with us this month & participate.  It is going to be a memorable 31 Days…bookmark this page because once a new post is live we will add the topic & link to the top of this post.

    OK, straight up, this is the blog I’m the most excited about reading this month. I think it might be the smirks that did it. Can’t wait!

#OneDayMay May 31 - This is who I am right now…⁣
⁣
…an imperfect daughter of Christ, wife, mom, daughter, sister, cousin, aunt, friend, neighbor, writer, gardener, reader, knitter, community member, exerciser, dream cheerleader, cook, and so many more. ⁣
⁣
You get the idea. ⁣😉⁣
⁣
Perfection is not the goal. Relying on my own strength is not the goal. ⁣
⁣
The goal is to love God, do my part in his kingdom, walk in his plan, and encourage others along our journey home.

This is who I am.⁣

#OneDayMay May 27 - Something I do for fun…⁣
⁣
…is hang out with these yahoos where fun is a consequence 🤣 

Today we had our “yay, it’s summer!” meal of breakfast foods at a local cafe. We started this tradition when they were little and I realized today that we only have three of these left. 😭 That’s not fun.

#OneDayMay May 25 - A struggle right now is…

…in the words of Steve Kerr, “When are we going to do something?” 

I’ve struggled for years, especially in my childhood, wondering if my voice mattered. 

As an adult, I’ve grown to learn that my voice matters. Whether or not you disagree with the what I’m saying, it matters. 

It’s a voice that needs to be heard. 

It’s a voice that is here, at this point in time, during this span of 1972 until I die, for such a time as this—to speak up for the innocent, the abused, the least of these. 

I’ve heard the phrase, “not every issue has our name on it.” I believe that is true to a certain extent. I can’t possibly support every issue or cause. I would be exhausted and bankrupt. 

But friends, gun violence has every American name on it. 

Something needs to be done because the way it is now is unacceptable. 

When are we going to do something?

Now. 

Contact your representative and state senators and voice your concern about the lack of a senate vote on The Bipartisan Background Checks Act of 2021, H.R. 8 and the Enhanced Background Checks Act of 2021, H.R. 1446. 

Your voice matters!

“The artist cannot hold back; it is impossible, because writing, or any other discipline of art, involves participation in suffering, in the ills and the occasional stabbing joys that come from being part of the human drama.” Madeleine L’Engle ⁣
⁣
A question for all of us: I wonder what art will be produced from our current season of suffering and stabbing joys? 🤔 ⁣

#OneDayMay May 19 - I’m proud of myself for…⁣
⁣
…allowing myself to be taken care of the past few years. That’s hard for me to admit 😘 because I am usually the one taking care of others. ⁣
⁣
But my body finally said enough or it was the quiet pride building up in my heart that had finally had enough. My heart was literally enlarged and I could barely make it out of bed most days much less take care of others! ⁣
⁣
The pandemic has been horrible in so many ways but it brought our family closer. ⁣
⁣
Between my health and Eden’s hip reconstruction, the men in our family rallied and have taken such great care of us. And the support from family and friends has been life-giving. 💛⁣
⁣
Here we are, two years later and I’m still advocating for my health (that will never stop!) and allowing others to take care of me (I hope I don’t let my pride get in the way of that either!).⁣
⁣
Another surgery in the morning, friends. This time, a team of doctors and nurses will be closing the PFO (hole in my heart) with a tiny “umbrella”. Amazing, right? I’m so thankful. ☂️❤️‍🩹⁣
⁣
The hope is by closing this hole it will reduce the risk of a future stroke. After all the tests they’ve done the past few months, the doctors believe the cause of my mini-stroke back in December was due to a small clot escaping through that hole and up into my brain.⁣
⁣
——⁣
⁣
I hope to keep up with the #OneDayMay prompts after tomorrow because I have loved this challenge and also have enjoyed reading what others have shared. ⁣
⁣
Until then, much love to each of you and your families 🥰
