Yesterday I went on a field trip with two of my boys to the Performing Arts Center where a man performed through a bit of humor and the touch of the ivory keys while recounting the history and anatomy of a piano. While the kids were educated and entertained, my heart was moved by the intermittent strokes of Bach …
Before I jump into today’s post and a fun creative piece, I want to take time again to thank you for all the encouragement I’ve received from you all on the last two posts. I laid my heart out there for you to see, and your response has been overwhelming. Thank you for your following, …
It’s been about three years since I’ve started on this blog journey. Only two and a half years since I launched, but there is a lot that goes into a flight plan before you are ready for takeoff. In this place I have been reflecting a lot. Reflecting on the journey that has brought me …
This January, I’ve been reflecting; walking through healing in my own life this past year and seeing grace for what it is. The hardest times in our lives always have the most residual grace.

I hope you all had a wonderful Thanksgiving weekend. We sure did. We also had some hiccups with the Christmas tree and a sick kid on Thanksgiving, but over all, it was such a relaxing, blessed weekend spent with family, (and decorating for Christmas of course). I want to thank you all so much for …
