It was my usual 6 month skin check up! I prepared my mind with hope and expectation of a clear scan with gratitude for my doctor and the continued care I have experienced. The wait was longer than usual so I inquired of updates. Soon after I was taken back to my relief since preschool…
The Garden Flag
Tis the season to tell the story. It was a cold morning in December taking my pup outside to his usual front yard spot to make his markings 😉 As I scurried back to get warm inside, I happen to glance over while opening the front door discovering there nestled in the far corner of…
Now more than ever
Now more than ever a precedence of God’s word is vital. Not your feelings. Not your circumstances. Not your opinion. Not what’s popular. Not cultural relevance and its ever demands to conform. Not Facebook, AI, google and every other search engine. Simply, yet so profoundly unchanging, The Word of God is the standard by which…
A mother carries beauty
I had time between basketball tournament games to find ways to entertain my very active 2 1/2 year old daughter!

Tough Hope
It’s the final week of our summer book read as we prepare for the new school year to begin. My oldest son mostly reads to me to practice his oral reading skills and for mom to also keep along in the story. 😉Throughout the book we have been getting to know the character Brian and…

It had two other adjoining fence…
