Abstinence

In my observation of Lent this year, I’ve made the painful decision to deprive myself of the daily dose of two of my very favorite blogs. Lisa is a luminous writer, an awe-inspiring mother, and faraway friend, and her husband Will has literally and metaphorically defined ‘blogger’ for me– he was the very first person to tell me about a ‘blog’, and his was the very first one I read.

But Lent calls for sacrifice, so I hereby pledge to not read either of them for the next forty days. As God gives me strength.
