Have you ever had one of those dreams about being naked in a public place? I have! Not sure what that says about me. Just keeping it real. A young friend popped by yesterday wearing a t-shirt promoting a nutrition and exercise program. It said, “cause everybody...

The other night Scarlett decided she wanted to play the piano in the living room. Which was great except she was disturbing Henry who was watching a show and wanted to stay close to us all. I offered to set him up in our room to watch from the bed and thought...

My four-year-old granddaughter and I were playing in the ocean yesterday. She had on a puddle jumper (super duper flotation device) so we played freely. The waves were pretty manageable and she’s a bold girl. Before I knew it she was drifting farther away than I’d...

I pray this is the craziest summer we’ll ever encounter. There is no rhyme or reason to what day it is. I have to consult my calendar to even remember the month! June 14 was my birthday and I asked myself, Was it really only a year ago that I first...

I’ve had a top notch job as Mama for 30 years. I knew it wouldn’t last forever. It is, after all, a job you really hope you work yourself out of. But I hadn’t thought much about my next. God began a good work that He’s promised to complete in me. I am confident that...

I don’t have a green thumb. I can plant a seed and get it to break ground. But more often than not the plant doesn’t fully mature to produce what I anticipated, whether it’s a beautiful flower or a fat, juicy tomato. I’ve made peace with this fact. But I asked...

It would not do for me to be a runway model. Aside from the fact that I am 5’2” (eyes of blue) and very curvy, models never look where they’re going. I confess I’ve always envied that cool stare straight ahead as they saunter down the catwalk in those crazy heels....
