I have a single Aunt who lives alone in a house generously bestowed with windows. You can imagine how scary it must have been to find a pair of eyes watching her move around the house. Even though the police dealt with her unwelcome intruder , she had to live with the fear that someone was watching her every move after that. Ever get the feeling you're being watched? My kids go through this every time they step out into the ...
Wordless Wednesday/Wordful Wednesday
Sibling love is…
. Sibling love is... sharing your Easter eggs with your big sister because she didn't get a lot of eggs during the church's Easter egg hunt and later organizing a thank you Easter egg hunt in your backyard, for your little brother, because you were touched that he shared his loot so lovingly. I hope you had a good Easter. We did. And these two memories made the weekend one of the best ever, for this Mama. ...
Today a Reader {Word-filled Wednesday}
My mother loves books. She lives in a two bedroom apartment or rather a one bedroom apartment as the 2nd bedroom has been taken over by her books.

I'm blessed to be married to an incredibly ...

Every cloud has a silver lining {Almost Wordless Wednesday}
In the end it's how we look at things right? A verse from the Bible that always encourages me is one from Romans 8:28- And we know that all things work together for good to those who love God, to those who are the called according to His Purpose. Life doesn't always go as planned but when you know that God has His Hand on it, your perspective changes. Be blessed in knowing that your cloud does have a silver lining. ...
