How did the third week of Project WriteItDown go?
You can’t imagine how much I enjoy seeing your pictures tagged with #WriteItDown2012 on Twitter and Instagram. I hope the pages in your journals are filling up with all kinds of things you want to remember.
I also happen to know that several of you are going through some big stuff. Life change, life loss, struggling to keep the family together.
My prayer for you – the friends I know well and the new friends who have emailed me out of the blue – is that by the end of this little experiment, you’ll read through your journal by the glow of Christmas lights and discover that even when life is hard…when it just plain sucks…God is faithful to give you good gifts along the way.
The strength to make it through another day.
Joy in the little things.
A grateful heart.
If you haven’t written yet this week yet, do it now! Set a timer for five minutes and just write. Remember, don’t over-think it.

I had fun writing again! I focused on writing down some funny red head quotes that I didn’t want to forget. This week will be more emotional for sure!
