FMF: What My Mamas Did

Last updated on: February 22, 2013 at 4:58 pm   By Osheta Moore

Left to Right:  Mama Missy, T.C. (my husband) Me and Mama Sonja Osheta Where Art Thou?  Dealing with kids all week long for February vacation week!  Y’all don’t know how many times I tried to sit down to write a blog post only to get pulled away by “MOOOOOOOOOM!” from one of my kids.  Always angered by a sibling.  Always seeking justice. Almost always bored out of their mind.  So, epic blogger fail this week. Epic mom, success though we’ve... Read more

FMF: I’m Your Beloved

Last updated on: February 15, 2013 at 3:08 pm   By Osheta Moore

Yesterday I posted on a Mix tape O’ Love for my husband.  It was fun to write that post and even more fun to listen to him read it.  Those songs were meaningful, beautiful, exciting, and perfect to communicate our love.  So, today, when I received the word prompt for Five Minute Friday, “beloved” I was thrilled.  “My Beloved” by Kari Jobe would be one song I would choose that communicates Jesus’ love for me.  So today, I’ll write for... Read more

Mix Tape O’ Love For My Hubby

Last updated on: February 14, 2013 at 7:13 pm   By Osheta Moore

  The first mix tape I ever made was for a boy in my middle school homeroom who I will call, Brian of the Beautiful Blue Eyes.  He was popular, funny, and confident without being cocky which is so hard for a twelve-year-old boy.  He wasn’t too bright, but made me feel smart by asking for homework help. Brian of the Beautiful Blue Eyes was my muse for all the heroes in my journal of short stories. I found myself day dreaming about him,... Read more

40 Days of Peace

Last updated on: February 14, 2013 at 12:01 am   By Osheta Moore

Ohmygosh it’s Lent already?!?! I feel like I just tucked my kids in on Christmas Eve hoping for snow and rushing prep for the pancake scavenger hunt.  Now we’re right upon Valentine’s Day, my anniversary, and starting yet another Lenten Season. And….until last night I didn’t know what I wanted to fast to observe Lent.  I just knew I didn’t want to do any type of food item fast because that’s too loaded of a concept for me.  You see,... Read more
