Running away to pray

Yesterday was one of those days. A day that made you want to run away. Too much crying, arguing, complaining, hurt feelings and aggravation. (And that was just from me. Heh. Just kidding. Kinda.) I haven’t been up early to do #hellomornings lately. Even before I woke up this morning I could hear the kids arguing. [...]

Begin Your Summer with Growly

Growly Circle Begin

This week is the first week of summer vacation. It has been absolutely glorious. We’ve worn pajamas half the day, driven almost nowhere, made cookies and even went out to eat once or twice! We finished Farmer Boy and have read lots of picture books from the library. I also started (and finished) a new book by Erin [...]

Helmet & Sword

full armor of god 001

Asa has been waiting and waiting to get to the helmet and sword in the Armor of God. (I’m sure you’ve been waiting, too. Do you like the way this series has literally taken me five months to complete?! Just trying to be an example of how every little bit counts. *wink*) We suited up [...]

Several months ago we met Yancy and her family in downtown Atlanta to visit the World of Coke. I have no idea why we picked that place but after we sampled every kind of Coke product imaginable (and I was reminded why I don’t drink soft drinks), we hung out in the parking garage chatting. [...]

I have loved Adventures in Odyssey since Whit’s Flop. Stories are bread and meat for me and the stories of Odyssey are up there with Narnia and Disney in my world. When I was little, my brother and I listened to our Adventures in Odyssey tapes over and over. I learned about siblings from Donna [...]

Praying for the Whole Wide World!

May 17, 2013 By 10 Comments

When I was a little girl, I heard a story about a tribe in the deep jungles of who-knows-where who were worshipping trees. Their worship never brought any results so they stopped worshipping trees and began to pray to “the one who made the trees”. In fact, they prayed that someone would come to their [...]

A Birthday and a…Birthday!

May 15, 2013 By 15 Comments

Today I turn 36. I really don’t get freaked about getting older. But, there is something weird about my last day of 35. Of my kids only knowing me in my 30′s. I’ll be spending this 36th birthday at Lydia’s school leading hula hoop races and bubble blowing contests for the last day of school. [...]
