Ice Cream Memories

Yesterday we celebrated my husband’s birthday. It was a good day, nothing fancy, no big party, although we did sing happy birthday to him during our weekly team meeting. Oh, and we did buy his favorite birthday cake for the meeting, the lemon cake from “Nothing Bundt Cake”. Wow, there is a shameless plug 🙂…

Find Him

A few months ago, I shared here about a friend who had given me a little Jesus to carry with me. Ever since that day, I’ve been doing just that; I carry him in my pocket. When I reach into my pocket, it’s a constant reminder that He is always with me. It wasn’t long…

Celebrate the Special

In this life, there are so many blessings. Sometimes I think that phrase gets overused. Can it really, though? I think of a few friends I have that when I ask, “How are you?”, they respond, “I’m blessed, truly blessed”. It’s true, we all have blessings in our lives that we need to be thankful…

Their Day

We’ve all seen the various “days” that are recognized. You know what I mean, it’s National Hot Dog Day, National Ice Cream Day, National Sibling Day, etc. While those might be fun to recognize, I have to admit, I feel we’ve gone a little too far. There will come a point when people tune out…

Dig In

We’ve got a super busy week on tap at work. Events almost every day, wrapping up with our annual Christmas market over the weekend. I found myself waking up throughout the night, thinking about the various events and tasks that accompany each of them. Why is it we do that? Wake up thinking about things,…

This Is the Day

This is the day that the Lord has made; let us rejoice and be glad in it. These words come from Psalm 118, verse 24. As I was reading this full Psalm this morning, I realized how beautiful it is. A Psalm that speaks to the goodness of God, the unending love He has for…
