I still remember when Jeffrey (our son with special needs) was about 8 years-old. He had heard about upcoming baptisms at church, and told us he wanted to get baptized. We peppered him with questions to make sure he understood fully what baptism meant, and afterward felt in our hearts that the time was right. He … More God of the Burning Bush
Going under the knife … yikes! Definitely not a fun thing. But when I had my thyroidectomy about 8 years ago I finally came to realize you definitely need to listen to health care providers; but when things don’t go as planned, there’s really only one medical professional to completely trust – The Divine Surgeon. … More A Divine Operation
A business friend of my husband recently invited us out to dinner. I had never met this man before, yet my husband had shared with me that he had lost his wife a few years back, and was having trouble coping with his singleness. He missed his wife dearly.

The same thing happened as when Jeffrey’s twin Bryan passed away … More Mother’s Gone & I Come Unglued – But Only Temporarily!
Okay, okay – I ended up telling Jeffrey that grandma did tell me she believed in Jesus, even though I wasn’t convinced (Time Ticks Away). Who was I to hold out on my precious little boy who loved his grandma so much? Needless to say Jeffrey was so excited, and that warmed my heart… However, … More The Roller-Coaster Continues
Ay-yi-yi – the busyness of life! We’ve just all got way too much to do, and not enough time, right? Here we go, running into the store to grab a few things and racing to the check-out line: Which line is the shortest? You rush to get your place and then you realize that the … More We All Just Need To Slow Down!
I’ve never surfed a wave (as a matter of fact I doubt I could even stand on a surfboard for more than a second), yet I do find it fascinating to watch those who really know what they’re doing. There they are, lying on their boards patiently waiting for that really big wave to arrive. … More Slam! Back Down We Go…
Do you like cliff-hangers? I have to admit there are times I do; and then times I don’t. As a matter of fact sometimes I get downright upset when I have to wait to find out what happened! Alright, I realize that I left some of you in la-la land in my last post My … More OK, My Cup’s Brimming Over!
