Merry Christmas!

And now we pause to enjoy the holidays with our families and remember the Reason we're in this thing. We're catching a clue from Mary, up there,
and we're off to enjoy our babies' first Christmas.
Go, get off the computer, enjoy your families, your PH, your churches, the season and Him.

We'll see you in January 2010.

We wish you a Merry Christmas
and a Happy New Year!

guest blog: friendship DRAMA

Friendship.

We talk about it again and again here on Clutch, so I know it's an important issue for pastors' wives. Well ladies, since moving to our current church almost two years ago I prayed for friends. And I got friends. And now I don't know what to do with them!

I forgot that along with friends comes DRAMA!

And now I want out. Not out of the friendships, but out of the drama. Away from the she said/she said mess. Far away from, "Can you believe that she...."

So I think it's time to look outside of the church for friends. But for me, there is no "outside of the church." I'm a stay-at-home-mom of a four year old and two year old. Our oldest son goes to preschool at our church. And when preschool ends, he'll be homeschooled.

Where do I find friends outside of the church? What has worked for you?

Sandra and her PH Lee live and serve in Pennsylvania. Check out the blog she does with friends at Today's Housewife. You can follow also her on Twitter @HeartforHim.
