Tonight on the way home from our homeschool open house, we listened to the radio in the car. The Christian radio station played the news and then announcements. The announcer said, “Mom’s are you ever full of anxiety about sending your children away to school? Learn how to overcome those feelings…” (I’m not sure if [...]

My friend Gigi moved away a couple of weeks ago. Her husband was released from prison this past week, and they moved back to the area they’re from. We already miss her. I haven’t called her this week yet. I don’t want to bug her. I’ve been thinking this week about all that happened the [...]
I read about this new book from a link I followed on a blog last week. Picking Cotton tells the story about a woman who identified the wrong man after her brutal attack. That man spent 11 years in prison innocent of the charges he was serving. I took the time to watch the video [...]

One site I enjoy looking at is One Pretty Thing. They post a round up of crafty ideas from around the web. Sometimes there is a recipe round up, or party ideas. Other times, they post children’s ideas. I just enjoy it for the inspiration. On the Ambleside yahoo group, Soap Carving was suggested for [...]
I thought I’d share a picture with you today. It’s Lee’s radio from prison. James has appropriated it and has it on his dresser. It’s quite funky looking. Lee had to order it from the canteen and if he wants another one he’ll have to buy a new one. Unfortunately, we won’t be able to [...]
I realized the other day that I hadn’t shared from my journals in a long time. As I paged through them, I was blessed at all the things that I wrote down. It’s amazing how alive God’s Word is. I love how verses spoke to me one way then and they minister to my heart [...]
