The stories I share are all true, believe it or not! Some of them seem movie-worthy, especially an upcoming one in which I recount how I recently “drove” my husband’s four-wheeler into the pond. All stories are relatable and connect to a Biblical foundation in which readers can learn about God. One of my greatest […]

If you missed last month’s post, you might want to go back and read it before reading this one; otherwise, this one might be difficult to follow. Days after the flood, I had no idea my search for answers would lead to my journey through Job, Ecclesiastes, and Habakkuk. I have been deep-diving into these
(This post isn’t the one I had planned, polished, and ready to publish for September. And, due to the lack of resources, power being the biggest, and the need to help so many of my neighbors, I did not get a post ready for October either. Missing these two months of sharing Jesus are the

I hope you aren’t tired of camping stories because I think I will have a few more! Tim and I thoroughly enjoyed our camping trips at Cherokee Dam Campground in July. Surely, my husband has his fill of fishing by now. LOL! This campground has a great family atmosphere. It is not a full hookup

This was our first time returning to this campground since Brean was going into the ninth grade, Devan was going into middle school, and I was going into emergency surgery for a broken neck.

The hubs and I just returned from a family vacation on Douglas Lake in Tennessee. Not only did I love that the house was right on the water, but the view from the kitchen was spectacular. I could make breakfast in the kitchen while looking out the window at the mesmerizing water accentuated by an
Who’s that woman looking back at you in the mirror? Did you ever expect to see her? How fast did this version of you arrive? Yesterday, I was at a high school celebration for a remarkable young man. His mom reminded all of us of how time flies away from us. I’m also reminded of

When I started this blog, I had three ambitions. One, give God my fingers and let Him use them. Two, I hoped it would be encouraging to others. And, three, I wanted to share things I learned that I thought were wow moments. This month’s blog has been a little hard to write. I’ve written

Before we get into this month’s story, I want to wish you a Happy Easter! Tomorrow is the big day! If your church is like mine, it’s the day we get up bright and early and head to the Sunrise Service. It’s a big deal to me because it emulates the day sweet Mary ran

Once, when Devan was around two, I left him home with my husband while I went to pick up Brena at our church. The church was about two football fields away from my house, so I didn’t have to go far. I had dropped Brena off earlier for Christmas play practice; Devan wasn’t old enough

Why would our latest adventure be anything but a doozy? Tim (my hubby) didn’t want to take our mini-dachshund, Oscar, on the adventure with us. That meant I would need to pay someone to keep him. So I decided if I was paying, then we would get an Airbnb, and I would spend the extra
