  • Happily Ever–When?

    I’m a great expecter–with massive expectations of what my life should look like. I fully expected to get through college, find a job and get married. Did that. The fact that I’m still married to that guy I dated all those years ago is a testimony to the grace of God. I fully expected to have…

  • Treasures Found Where Life Is Happening

    Perspective changes with circumstances. Several years ago, we invested in “freshening” our home. New floors, new paint, new counters. Twenty years of wear and tear, six children, several dogs and most surfaces having been peed, pooped or puked on made it feel necessary. It was a big deal for me. As frugal as we were,…

Not knowing how the others had been dealing with personal grief, I wondered how we’d embrace each other where we were.…

  • What Will We Do With What We’ve Been Given?

    When presented with a conclusion to an epic experience, the only possible way to finish well is to party. True celebration is a gift. It’s an opportunity to become excited with those who are filled with hope and anticipation. It’s also the chance to empathize with those who’re disappointed and hesitant of next steps. We…

  • Mismatched Or Misunderstood?

    Mismatched socks. The bane of my existence. I had no trouble with this–until I had kids. Then my dryer developed an appetite for socks–and insisted on never eating a whole pair. My youngest has dealt with the issue by wearing them mismatched. That’s not something I do comfortably. I want agreement on my feet. Endings…
