Presents
"It is better to give than to receive."I do love to give presents. I love to pick out just the right paper with a pretty bow, but let's be honest, it's nice to get a present too and that's okay.When you start to look around, there are presents everywhere. Not just...
Another week
I always enjoy Monday mornings. I know, it sounds crazy, but I like to gather my thoughts and plans for the week and know that a new week has come with many opportunities.Holiday decorations to display, meals to cook, cookies to bake, music to prepare...the list goes...
Slow but steady…
Slow but steady wins the race, or in our case today, slow but steady will get you to Albuquerque safely!We had snow and ice in our small town last night and getting to the hospital (2 hours away) to an 8:30 am appointment did not quite happen. We arrived at 9:30 but...

Plans
Where is the best place to catch a virus? The hospital. I've been dealing with one for a few days in addition to living around Christian's schedule of IV antibiotics(6am and 6 pm until Thanksgiving...a 2 hour infusion).It's just one of those things...when you "plan"...
Hospital Moments
My Christian is in the hospital, again. He has an infection in his implanted port. It's been a weekend of keeping my three year old entertained while being alone in the hospital.When you are in the hospital out of your hometown you have to manuever well. Did I pack...
“I’m Not Who I Was”
"God, thank you for not letting me be who I used to be."Over the past eight years my life has taken a huge turn. My faith strengthened, I learned a lot about myself and my direction in life completely changed. I was a teacher living in suburbia trying to keep up and...
