About me: I am Amber. I love every part of my life. I am really just happy to be here, and I hope to be around for a long time. I am married to Kenny. He has been my best friend for almost ten years now. We still have so much to talk about…and we can still laugh together (although it’s usually him laughing at me in a make fun of you kind of way…“making it fun” as he likes to call it). I have always imagined finding someone to grow old with…I am so glad I found Kenny…although I should have thought this through a little more…we are actually growing old…together. Seriously, I really don’t remember crossing that line…that’s still foggy, but I do remember when I first realized I had crossed the line. My music taste was slightly outdated…they began playing MY music on the oldies stations, my clothing taste shifted to comfort rather than fashion…I STILL don’t get the guys wearing girls’ jeans as tight as they will possibly fit. You can't even sit down! But, who am I to talk, I have clipping coupons and bird watching listed as interests for crying out loud!
Who I'd like to meet: I really wanted to meet my children...which I have, so everyone else is just icing on the cake. Elizabeth is four and is just the most beautiful creature on the planet. She is so pure and sweet, charming and caring. I am so aware of the blessing it is to be a part of her life and watch her grow up. Olivia is almost two and is the joy of my life. She is quick, sharp, and has made me fight for her affection. She truly challenges me to be a better person, and for that, I will always respect her. I realize that nothing I will ever do in life will compare to being their mom.

Hi. I've now completed the third part of my “Super Glue for the Broken Hearted” trilogy so here it is and I hope you can take something from it! Parts 1 and 2 (“She Breathes” and “She Frees”) are on my blog and if I've known you a while they may be on your comments page from last year too.
Many thanks for the friendship and support and have a great day! ~ Si =)
HE BLEEDS
Love is like no-one else you ever met. His face obscured like a diamond of light behind white shadows. You laugh and sob in his presence, unable to comprehend his majestic beauty. He takes your hand and leads you through worlds of immeasurable splendour, devastating loss, ravishing beauty and unspeakable pain. When darkness surrounds, you lose all sight of him and scream out in terror like a child rejected by it's parent. But in time you realise that he has let go of your hand because he now carries you in his arms.
He stands in the gap between you and everything that would harm you. He negotiates for you, he fights on your behalf. He absorbs all pain, darkness, heartache, fear, loss, grief, sadness, evil, torture and death.
He roars like a lion and bleats like a lamb. He lives in serenity, creates courage and is the foundation of all wisdom.
He is the starving child in Africa, the destroyed family of Iraq. He is the bedraggled alcoholic on the street corner. He is the married executive on his way to the whore house. The terrified mother with a dying child. He is the baby killed at the hands of those who should have protected him and also the parents who did that.
He is black, white, light and dark. He stands outside of time and towers over everything else the universe has ever known.
But in all strength, he is weak and utterly defenceless. He steps in front of you. He cries.
He reaches out his arms, and enveloping your soul into his heart, He drops his head and he dies.
However you choose to pass this Christmas, remember the reason why Jesus came. Amidst the ranting and the raging [Psalm 2], Christ still “...heals the brokenhearted, proclaims liberty to the captives and recovery of sight to the blind, and sets at liberty those who are oppressed” [Luke 4:18]. “Glory to God in the highest, and on earth peace, goodwill toward men!” [Luke 2:14]
