    The daily stuff has crowded out all time for writing.  Lots of changes lately.  The door was firmly shut on desired plans and I’m glad to embrace the plans of my Sovereign Good Father.  I’m actually looking forward to what’s ahead. In April Connor turned 10, got a BB gun…

    It rained mud last night. It’s 9pm and I just stopped cooking. This crazy Music Man of mine is charging me to dive into entrepreneurship, but I have NO idea what I’m doing. He’s convinced I’m just a few short steps away from success with my homemade paleo mayo and…

    It’s Saturday. Two thousand plus years ago on a day like today You were dead to us. Hidden behind a stone. You came to us full of grace and truth and we thought You’d make our circumstance right, right away.  But now it’s Saturday and you seemed to lay defeated…

    Determined not to complain, but rather give thanks in all things, I’m just going to share something that has spoken to me this week as I have been going through this season of Lent, meditating on what Christ has done for me:  When asked how they know they are Christians,…

    (My rockhound kids with his geode finds from Payson last weekend. More on that another post.) I’m still here. It’s been a full couple of weeks. Mostly full of sickness. UGH! Tomorrow I get to teach the 3rd and 4th graders at Pathway one of my favorite sections of the…

    (Flattering and sophisticated we are)  It’s been a long day.  It started at 2 am with a cacophony of coughing.  I’m convinced that those people who do such things probably employ long nights listening to distressing coughs as a form of torture.  I’m hoping tonight is better.  So far they’ve…

    I’ve had several post topics in mind but the last few days have not allowed for blog post time. It really started last week on Wednesday night when my little guy with asthma coughed a terrible cough that keeps a mom up all night long.  I took him with me…

    Ugh, it’s been quite the week. Besides the decisions that weigh heavy on me as a mom, and the energy expended as a school nurse, I’ve been fighting a virus all week.  And now the heavy production of mucous has caused me to develop an infected lymph node in my…

    So Ryland has decided he wants to be a Rockhound.   He’s been telling us how much he loves rocks for about a year now.  His room has about as many rocks as Lego people scattered on every surface.  But about a month ago there must have been a geology…
