No First Day of School Facebook Photo Today
We had such a nice breather...about 3 weeks without any bleeds. It was great, while it lasted. The thought actually went through my mind, "The first week of school is going to be great!" School starts today and "Christian" is in the hospital 🙁 ...
Going at it Alone
Sometimes we try to go it alone. Maybe we move a lot and are not settled long enough to establish relationships. Perhaps the season of your life that you are in requires lots of time at work or at home with your little children. And maybe you just have a hard time...
God’s Timing
In 2007 I heard God call me to ministry. I tried to ignore it but it just would not go away. I remember browsing online and I came across the Proverbs 31 Ministries site. They were offering a special conference for women in ministry called She Speaks. There was...

I will admit, when I ask someone how they are doing I am not wanting to hear the litany of everything that is wrong. I expect the obligatory, "I'm fine." I answer "I'm fine" before I even have the chance to think about what is going on in my life. When I hear myself...
A Funky Season
I admit, I enjoy Facebook. I'm more of a "lurker" than a "poster" but I do like keeping up with folks and seeing pictures of my friends children and grandchildren. There was a picture that took my breath away yesterday. One of our friends, who also...
Priorities
I am really bad about letting "life" get in the way of some of the things I want to do. My main responsibilities are to be a mom to my boys, a wife to my husband and to be a responsible and trustworthy employee/colleague. But if that is all I do, then I know I will...
There’s Nothing Like…
A great manicure/pedicure. Hearing a baby breathe their first breath. Wading in a creek in the mountains. The comfort of your home. A good day's work. Seeing the smile of your firstborn...watching him turn into a man. The smell of Pinon in the mountains of Santa Fe....
