We Remember
I was in my bedroom, half awake, not even dressed for the day. My baby was asleep in his crib so I flipped on the TV and there it was. The buildings on fire, the news commentators playing over and over again the planes flying into the towers. I sat in shock, not fully comprehending…

Experiencing Christ Within
I’ve started on a spiritual journey that has me intrigued and excited. Revolution Within and the companion workbook Experience Christ Within by Dwight Edwards is a fresh look at God’s covenant with his people. I’ve only completed the first chapter which was very indepth and time consuming with tons of scripture references to look up,…
I Remember: My September 11th Story

The Orchard Tradition
Nothing says September like our annual fall trips to the orchard. I eye the fruit-laden trees seeing quart jars of chunky applesauce, while my children’s taste buds remember last year’s free-for-all! Between them, they wrestle the long handle of the unwieldy apple picker hoping that this rosy-blushed specimen wins “pick of the day.” Honey-crisp, Macoun,…
Jesus, Take the Wheel
I wrote this to a friend who is starting on a similar journey of balance in her own life. “Listen to that gentle whisper God is speaking to your heart and see where He wants you to let go. Writing and the critique group was one of the hardest things I had to let go…
The Thin Within
(I still support the moms for modesty code I signed over at Everyday Mommy. But this was too funny to keep to myself.) Go here for more great pics.
