Defiant Heart
No, not me. Though that wouldn’t be too off. But it’s Tracey Bateman’s book 1 in the Westward Hearts series. I’m ashamed to say this is my first Tracey Bateman book, but I’m already a fan and knew I would be after meeting her in person. Though I’m not a romance lover, this book kept…
Dream Vanity
What little girl wouldn’t love this precious vanity set? We bought Grace a Target Vanity and “Dress Up” closet a couple of years ago, knowing that she was indeed a girlie, girl, yet all rough and tumble underneath.

I am Emotionally Undone!
And it’s all because of a book. Bad Idea by Todd & Jedd Hafer had me laughing and crying, and contemplating my own life as the sarcastic, pessimistic, hopeful Griffin Smith embarks on a cross country journey that changes his life. I don’t know what resonated with me more, the sarcastic pessimistic teen who reminded…
To Know and Be Known
As I wrote down my prayer, the ache in my heart formed into these five words, “to know and be known.” Baffled by its meaning, yet fearful of the ramifications, I realized in that moment this was my dream. To know and be known. Several days later as I read one of my devotional booklets,…

Authentic Parenting in a Postmodern Culture by Mary DeMuth
In one sentence, what is Authentic Parenting in a Postmodern Culture about? It’s about learning how to parent our kids in a winsome, authentic way, so that our kids are well-prepared to face life when they leave home. What does postmodern mean? And why should it matter to parents? Postmodernism is the waiting room between…
Odd Man Out
I’m getting very tired of always being the odd man out, me against the world. I don’t know whether it’s my plight in life, but it’s a lonely place to be. And it’s never more prevalent than in my own family. As a young girl, I was the goody, goody, always choosing the right, moral…
