You Can’t Describe That Kind of Love

Yesterday morning I was blessed with a call. My phone rang and I noticed it was my oldest, it was early so I grabbed it hoping all was ok. As I said hi, the voice on the other end was not my daughter. It was my grandson calling to remind me that he was a…

Beautiful

Such a simple word, beautiful. We use it to describe so many things, however, sometimes I wonder if we realize that this simple word describes each and every one of us. Father’s children, we are made in his image and simply beautiful. Sitting down this morning to write this little blog, this word kept coming…

Put it Down

I made my way out to my lanai this morning to have my morning conversation with Father. I’ve mentioned before that I enjoy this time of the morning outside. It’s so peaceful and quiet and you can actually think for a bit. As I talked with God and lifted continued prayers for Baby M, I…

Prayers for a Little One

Over the past few little blogs I’ve been sharing how I feel and see Father answering prayers. I’ve seen His amazing hand in so many situations lately.

How many times do we find ourselves wondering where the time has gone? There is such truth to that saying, “The older you get the faster time flies”. I can’t believe another year has ticked away and my husband and I are celebrating another year together. Thirty-six years ago we said our “I Do’s”, in…

A Buddy

If you read this little blog you know that our grandson is quite the character. He just turned 18, but he’s a still tiny “kid”, and he has most of his school wrapped around his little finger. You see our grandson Austin has Down Syndrome and it is so true what you’ve heard about these…

25 Years Ago

There is a span through a few weeks of June and July where I become a little melancholy. You see my dad passed away 25 years ago today. The doctors had told us in May of that year that he would only be with us for probably two months, and they were exactly correct in…

The Good Ole Days

I shared in this little blog many months ago about a wonderful older parishioner from our church back in Illinois. My husband and I got to know Ed very well after his wife passed away. We would frequently go out to breakfast after church, and he would invite us back to his condo just off…
