How are you?

Busy.

At least, that's what I always seem to say. No really, I'm not that busy, not as busy as her, or her, or them. But that's what I say: busy.

Or "good".
Apparently I cannot answer the "How are you doing?" question fully... ever. My standard response is always the short, blunt and no-strings-attached one word. Why is this? Honestly I think its because I haven't given it much thought lately and these are the only two words floating around my head.

But is that what my life is to be about? Being busy?

I once read that being busy does not translate into being faithful. Ouch. Did you feel that? So often I am "busy" but failing at being faithful. Faithful to serve and honor my husband. Faithful to love and teach Josiah during our day. Faithful to take care of responsibilities and commitments I've made. Faithful to love the Lord my God with all my heart, soul, mind and strength.

So how am I doing, you might ask? Come ask me......
