Launching my First born!
Perhaps this is too personal to put on this blog. It is the letter I wrote to Emily this evening. It sort of captures some of the feelings I am experiencing as she moves to Biola to start her college experience tomorrow. Dear Emily Ruth, I am sitting here listening to you laugh and sing…
God, Hold the pieces of my heart!
2 Cor. 2:7 “God’s secret purpose framed from the very beginning is to bring us to our full glory” I know that everyone has regrets. No way around it. It has been my goal, however, to live with as few of them as possible. That said, I do hold that idea in tension with the…
Floribama!
Most of you know I recently went to Florida and Alabama, while my kids were in Chicago, for a much needed visit with my relatives. It was fantabulous! Highlights include parasailing with my Aunt Crystal, a fresh shrimp boil, trying alligator (tastes like chicken), a free t-shirt (and food) from Milos, Tortugas pizza (best in…

7 Months is Forever!
Another month has gone by since my best friend and life partner went to heaven. I don’t know when it will get easier. Maybe it won’t. I miss him. A lot. Many have asked me why I don’t write more often. Well, working full-time and managing solo is really hard and quite frankly I am…
