I love a small town where I can make 5 stops in less than an hour. With 3 kids in tow. A town where I can cash a handful of checks at the bank, even if one of them didn't exactly have my name on it. A town where I can send 2/3 of my kids into a storefront alone, without any hesitation or worry ...
The 3 Random Reasons Why We Love Church (And You Should, Too!)
We all have our reasons why we attend church, or don't attend. Sometimes I struggle hard with not wanting to attend and be fully present there, other times I don't struggle at all, I just get in the van and go. This is just a random post, folks. I do have some deep feelings about church, religion ...
Watch For God
This was part of my view during worship at church this morning. I could complain about the mosquitos, but instead I'll rejoice at the sounds, the beauty, and the people that surrounded me. My son gave me a bracelet from Vacation Bible School that says "Watch For God". I've been ...
Thursday Thoughts
What's on my mind? This. I get so tired of the religion debate. Lutheran, Methodists, Baptists from the west side of town, Baptists from the East side, Catholics, etc. Whatever. I mean we're all children of God. And if we were all living like Christians, truly ...
The Scare; Finding Peace
It rained all day yesterday. My hubby took the day off of work to take me to my doctor appointment, the one for the breast exam. I told him I could've went on my own, but he knew better. I needed him there with me. My mom watched the kids, and for that I'm so thankful, since it ended up being a ...

Mom Needs Shoes
So there we were, a family of 5, hauling butt through a parking lot so I could make an impromptu stop at the shoe store, and still get everything done on my errands list. In our Circus Operation we had: A dad head up, looking forward, strutting his stuff with a new haircut. A preteen holding ...
I Love You to Death, Marry Me, and Have Fun
A couple weeks ago I was sobbing big ugly tears as I was digging through my keepsake box for a specific picture of an old friend. I couldn't find it and felt so defeated. It was just one of those days. I did find something else though, from the same time period as the picture I was looking ...
