I rarely talk to others about God, the Bible or any part of my religious beliefs. Is it because I'm afraid others will disagree? Is it because I'm embarrassed in some way? Is it because I'm not confident in what I have been taught? I think the most honest answer is I don't want to be [...]

An Honest Moment…
I want to talk about some things that have nothing to do with the kids. My personal junk. Earlier today I began to get that Sunday panic feeling. The chest tightening feeling that comes along with the racing thoughts of Monday morning. Once I get to work I'm fine. I don't even know what it is [...]
Be Thankful!
It's a cold and rainy day here in Charlotte. Isaiah & I ran down to the bus this morning and I was laughing saying...this is what a Monday looks like 🙂 My Facebook timeline is filled with reasons why my friends and family are thankful. Every November a few of them will be consistent all [...]

Last night my husband asked me to take down notes for a song he's learning on the piano. He plays by ear. He listened to "Healing" by Richard Smallwood on YouTube and called out the notes for each part. After church he went to find my notes so he could practice. He immediately walked into [...]
How to tell your child needs more structure
I was sitting just a few rows back from the front in church this evening. Aaron went to sleep before the praise team was done singing so it was just me and Isaiah. He had an activity book and was struggling with a crossword puzzle. Isaiah: I don't know how to do these. Crossword puzzles [...]
