Milk in the Closet?
I guess you can’t name your blog, “Milk in the Closet” and not explain why.
It all started when I was a young girl. You see, I had this thing about wanting to eat in my room. My mother had this thing about me not eating in my room.
One day, I was hungry for cereal and, of course, wanted to eat in my bedroom. I proceeded to take the box of Cheerios, a bowl, a spoon, and an entire gallon of milk to my room. I poured the cereal into the bowl and was about to open the gallon of milk when I heard my mom coming down the hall. Knowing I would get in serious trouble if caught, I did what any scared child would do.
I stashed everything in my closet.
Everything.
Yes, even the milk.
And then I forgot about it.
I would continue the rest of this tragic story, but it seems I have blocked the rest out of my memory. I just remember smelly milk smell coming from my closet, an angry mother, and my dad helping me clean out the closet. The rest is a blur.
So, why name my blog after this sad but funny story? I don’t know. I woke up at 2 o’clock in the morning with the idea. Call it Divine inspiration.
Milk in the Closet – a blog about faith, parenthood, and whatever else pops into my head.

I just had to find out the story behind your blog name. I love this because I too had a divine dream about naming mine the canvas grey. I’m so glad to know that you did too. It is important to act upon what He gives us!

I have a very old copy of Praying for your children (the claendar) I am trying to get a fresh new copy not all torn and what not, so that I can lamenate them and give to firends. I have used mine for years which was given to me by my sister who woriked for MOPS for a while. I have tried several sources tyring to find a new one on line, but the http://www.2MOMS.com is no longer a web site.
Do you know how I can go about getting a new copy?
Please and thank you!

I have a friend who write a blog called Inspired to Action. She has made a calendar that is essentially the same thing, with permission from the 2Moms gals. It is located on the resources page at http://www.inspiredtoaction.com
It’s a great website!!! Hope that helps!
