Update

I thought I would give my Summer Reading Challenge Update.
So far, I have finished 2 books. I read 90 Minutes in Heaven by Don Piper and One Tuesday Morning by Karen Kingsbury. I have started The Four Seasons of Marriage by Gary Chapman (the author of The 5 Love Languages).

I know that I have said this before, but Karen Kingsbury is the most amazing writer! Seriously, I highly encourage you to committ to Ramblings From Life Summer Reading Challenge- even if you don't have time to read multiple books, my recommendation is just one of Karen Kingsbury's books. Start with Redemption or Even Now or One Tuesday Morning..... who am I kidding, it doesn't matter which book you start with, they are all so good!!! I am so thankful that she releases books frequently because I know I will be so, so sad when I have read all that she has published.

On another note, my dear mother in law has asked me to "get on the ball" with blog updates. She said that she doesn't check many things online, but my blog is one of them. She wants new posts to read more often!!! So Linda, this new post is for you. But, I have a request, not just of Linda, but of all of you. If you check my blog (and I know y'all are out there thanks to my site meter at the bottom), PLEASE leave me a comment. Even if you just say hello. You just have to click on the comment link at the bottom of the post and type away in the blank box. You can leave it anonymously or choose to leave your name OR better yet, you can get yourself a blogspot account and create your own blog! (a lil plug for blogging, could you tell?!?!) I just like to know who is reading. Plus, getting comments brightens my day! I am so thankful for the few faithful fellow bloggers who pop on from time to time and leave lil comments!

Hope everyone has a wonderful Thursday!
