Every Day is an Anniversary

Yesterday my husband and I celebrated our 37th wedding anniversary. We’ve known each other more than 40 years and at one point yesterday I thought, wow, that’s a long time 🙂 . We had a very simple wedding, celebrated with friends afterwards, and the next night my mom hosted a lovely dinner for our families.…

From the Heart

These three little words, from the heart, they can mean so much depending on the context. As I was thinking about this little blog post this morning, doing what I often do, asking Father for guidance, the word forgiveness popped into my head.

The I in Forgiveness

This week has been filled with various emotions, and my goodness it’s only Wednesday. I’m not sure how many of you have the same feeling. As I mentioned yesterday, I am sad that our country has come to this point. Like many, I’m uneasy about the events of last weekend. This great nation needs love…

The Roots In the Window

Simple & True

Last weekend at church one of our parishioners was sharing that she and her daughter were going to a bridal show that afternoon. Her daughter,…

He Brings Me Here

I’ve said it many times before in writing this little blog, I’m truly blessed to have so many reach out to me to say thank you. I get text messages and emails from people just saying thank you for the words or the message of a particular little blog post. I never know when my…

Let Father Have It

It’s funny how we humans think sometimes? I know that is kind of an open-ended and even loaded question. Let me be a little more specific. We think we can control so much, and have so much under control. One of these days we really will, or at least I will, come to the realization…

The Backroads

The last few days my husband and I have been traveling. Our grandson graduated from high school this past weekend. You can learn a little more about him in this little blog. We had a wonderful time visiting family and friends back home, and the graduation was so great. Our grandson was awesome as he…
