I have been kind of incognito for a while. Life has changed in the last year, drastically. For one, we had a baby. Well, not me. But, our family. In other words, we are adopting again. I will share more in the future. It is amazing how this little one came to be in our […]

It is well with my soul. A 5th grade memory. Learning to “laugh at myself.”

Emotional Wreck Week
For whatever reason, what we thought was going to be, isn’t.
We are crushed, but not broken. Hurt but not dismayed.
What we held n our hands and got to love on for very few short hours was amazing for this side of Heaven.

Great NEWS! After a year of destruction – we have a blessing!
For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, says the Lord, thoughts of peace and not of evil, to give you a future and a hope. Then you will call upon Me and go and pray to Me, and I will listen to you. And you will seek Me and find Me, when you search for Me with all your heart. Jeremiah […]

Gardening for beginners: Everytime I think I know something, I don’t. Sunflower Field I’m planning a Spring garden…not as big as the ones we had growing up but hopefully, less weeds. Planning it makes me think of all kinds of scriptures… from: Jesus cursing the tree when it didn’t produce good fruit (Matthew 21:18-20) to […]

The other night some friends and I went out for dinner. For some reason, we started talking about Fleur di Lis. I pronounce fleur di lis like fleur di lease and someone told me it was fleur di lee. What do you say? I looked it up and was still a little confused. So many […]
