Little Red Book

A few weeks ago, my husband gave me a giftβan early birthday gift, I think. He gave me two books. One was a copy of our 1928 prayer book, and the other was a little red book. It’s called The Practice of Religion, and this particular edition was printed in 1950. His mother had a…

Weekend of Thanks

This Memorial Day weekend is about remembering. It’s about honoring. It’s about saying thanks to those who gave everything for total strangers.

Father’s Timing

Yesterday I asked for prayers for a friend of mine who was helping her mother leave this world into life everlasting with Jesus. I shared Psalm 23 which is such a moving passage and has helped me through many a difficult time. Yesterday afternoon I got a text from my friend. It said, “Momma passed…

The Surprise

The Bees Had Plans

Yesterday morning, I got up with a plan. As I was finishing this little blog, I told my husband about the errands I hoped we could run. Oh, and it just so happened that we could stop for breakfast, and it was on the way :-). So, after wrapping up my ramblings here, we headed…

Spring Storms

I had friends traveling all over yesterday. They were in Connecticut, South Carolina, Ohio, and everywhere in between. During our text conversation last night, they were all trying to make it home. The storms in the Midwest and Ohio Valley were awful. Flights were delayed at every turn. It was well after midnight before everyone…
