God taught me something today - through the eyes of a little child. Let's call him E. He is less than 1 - I think about 6 or 8 months. I play in a worship band every Sunday. We are all over 40-50+. Yet we have fun worshipping the Lord Almighty and bringing his people... Continue Reading →

Hallelujah! It's baby time. Time for birthing new things! Yes, carrying this 'baby' was hard, and long - but wait until you see what comes! Yes, it was labor. Yes it was hard. But get ready for your new 'baby"! Remember finally delivering? Remember that first cry? And holding your baby for the first time?... Continue Reading →

And hey,... Continue Reading →
Another new car? Seriously? The ex pulls in the driveway with yet another car. That's the third one I've seen in the last few weeks. Yes, he is in trouble with the law - again. And yet I am court ordered to let him see our two kids. Sometimes he shows up. Sometimes he cancels.... Continue Reading →
