My Motto

“What’s a motto?”

“Nothing…what’s a motto wit you?”

Hee-hee-hee. ( = I love to quote movies. Their writers have such a way of saying what I’m thinking- only better. My oldest daughter is in middle school and had to do a PowerPoint presentation about herself recently. One of the slides had to be her motto. In helping her to decide what to write it caused me to think about my own motto.

If I had to sum up my life in one susinct statement, what would I say? Obviously, it would have to be something about God since I AM a preacher’s wife. I have “The joy of the LORD is my strength.” as the signature on the end of my e-mails. Then again, being a PW, I have to work really hard to let people know that I’m not a spiritual super-woman…just a regular person called to do God’s bidding in a public way. So, I found a note pad at the mall which I feel really sums up what I’m feeling at this point in my life- my motto, so to speak. 

Both of us can't look good at the same time- it's either me or the house

So what do you think? What would you say is your unofficial motto?
