Thanks, friends!

tonight has been a little sleepy. i’m tired. it’s a natural part of being in the third trimester, i know, but i sure wish i had more energy. oh well, ‘they’ tell me i will only get more and more tired as time goes on, with a tiny baby paying no attention to the difference between night and day. my dear mother, though, was so encouraging today when we were talking on the phone. she told me how the late night feedings were actually quiet and peaceful, and not chaotic at all.

i can’t wait to experience the wonder of holding out little girl in my arms, and actually seeing her precious face. i thank God every day for this amazing miracle. just 9 more weeks now until my due date.

I'm Gina Munsey, a Jesus-lover and a sojourner; a weaver of words, anchored in hope. I am Mexico-born, Eastern Europe-raised missionary kid who ended up being a Californian by way of Florida outside of Nashville, Tennessee -- but we landed here before The Great Migration. I live my days full of coffee and adventures while my 12-year-old learns Mandarin Chinese and Greek, my 3-year-old uses all the markers, and my artist-husband creates worlds from pixels and light. I'm an editor, a magazine contributor, and a writer who has only completed four chapters of my languishing manuscript. On any given day, you can find me in the middle of [home]school surrounded by stacks and stacks of books. Oh, and the name of this blog? Oaxaca -- wuh-HA-kuh -- is in Southern Mexico, where I was born! (See full bio).
