Waiting Tables.  (That’s me.  Over at Megan’s.  Stop by and say hi?)

Behind the Scenes: Pantene Commercial.  This is actually an old post (actually, it’s a four part series) from Sarah.  Somehow I stumbled across it and just found it so fascinating.  Thought you guys might get a kick out of it too.

What I want you to know about having a drunk father. 

The Waves Beneath My Feet.  “When I was 6 years old, my sister and I were abducted by a stranger.  He was not a monster.  He was not disgusting.  He was a young, good looking guy in Jordache jeans who simply walked up to us in the parking lot of our apartment complex and said that he was catching bunnies in the woods.  There was no fear.  There were only two little girls talking the whole way about how we weren’t allowed to have pets in our apartment.  There was some scheming about how we could convince our mom to keep the bunnies.  But other than that there were no alarms going off in my head.  There was no, “Hey little girl, do you want some candy?” which I knew to run from.  There was just a walk with a guy who looked like he could be a camp counselor and we talked and laughed the whole time.  There was no hurry.  There was no grabbing us, or screams for help.  There was just a walk filled with laughter and the possibility of bunnies in the woods, and this might be the best weekend ever. ”

I'm a mom to four. A wife to one. I believe in story. I love telling you about mine and would love to hear yours. There's really no sense in wasting our suffering and not sharing in each other's joy. We're all in this together...even if it doesn't always feel like it.

    The story in “What I want you to know about having a drunk father” reminded me a lot of Dennis Jernigan’s 20+ minute song, “Daddy’s Song”. If you’ve never heard it, it’s amazing. And maybe a little life changing.

    I call BS on the Waves story. How can someone forgive a person(s) for committing horrific crimes against children?!?! No freaking way. You forgive them? I don’t think so. If they raped your little girl, stuffed her in a duffel bag and tossed her in a dumpster would you forgive them?! No! That’s just BS! I can understand forgiving someone who lied to you or dinged your car but not heinous crimes!
