A Special Boy
Wow, it’s hard to believe…eighteen years ago God blessed our family with a very special little boy, our grandson Austin. I was fortunate to be there when he was born. He was a premie, so we didn’t get to see him long before they whisked him from the room. I just remember the doctor holding…

Take a Walk

Remembrance and Honor
I saw a post on social media yesterday by a veteran. It read:“This weekend is NOT for us vets. Don’t thank us. This weekend IS for our brothers and sisters who paid the ultimate price, who didn’t come home alive. THANK THEM.” There really isn’t much else I can add to that. Memorial Day is…

Strawberry Shortcake
I’ve never made it from scratch, and I’ve only eaten it a few times, but today I’m joining some other volunteers at our church as we make about 200 mini strawberry shortcakes. We’re serving these tomorrow after our church services, to celebrate Pentecost. I’m a little nervous, that’s a bunch of cakes and we’re making…
