Concentration
Saturday, yep, you all know it, my favorite day, and during the holiday season, I love having the special traditions to focus on. This weekend is traditionally when our family gets the tree and decorates our home. We’ll be tackling that task for certain 🙂 . It’s also Cookie Sunday at church, where the kids,…

From The Mouth of Babes
Over the past few days, I’ve focused on children in this little blog. You all have lifted prayers for some little ones going through health challenges, and those prayers are being answered. Thank you again for taking the time to lift Joey and Briggs. Please keep them coming for continued healing. Like many, I’ve had…

The Atlas
We were fortunate to spend the Thanksgiving holiday with family up north. It was wonderful to be together, catching up on everyone’s happenings, sharing old stories, and just being family. As I’m sure most gatherings were, we got loud and rowdy, ate too much, and had an awesome time. We were even fortunate to run…

Here we are, Thanksgiving Eve, and I’ve already seen on social media, friends who are filling the fridge with homemade cranberry sauce, coconut cakes, gravy, and the like. I can almost smell the deliciousness of them all. I, too, will be in the kitchen today, after I brave the…

Traditionals

Preparations
Our youngest came into town yesterday. She’s helping her folks make the drive back home for the holiday. Wow, did I really say that? I’m not old, you’re old 🙂 . Actually, I admit, having her here to help with some final preparations before we leave is a relief. I might have made a little…

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 🙂…

Take A Moment
There are many special gifts in this world. I invite you for a moment to think about the special gifts in your life. Now, take a moment and openly say, “Thank you Lord for the gift of ____and____and____“. Feel free to add to the list. It’s important that we give thanks every day for the…

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…
