Do you have a favorite author? Or two? In the past, I held back from reading my favorite author’s latest book until a new one came out. That way, I always had one to look forward to. These days, I have another favorite author whose books I’m willing to pay full price for. I enjoy …
Last month, my daughter got married. This week, she officially changed her last name to match her husband’s. She announced it to the family on an iMessage and Hubby asked if she kept Hamilton as her middle name. Nope, her Social Security card no longer bears the name Hamilton. And we’re good with that. But it …
I don’t know if any of this is worth posting but since I can’t think of anything else to write, I’ll just jot down a few things that caught my attention recently. Weather–Actually, as I write this post, I’m sitting in a closet with the dog because we’re under a tornado warning. There are …
I’m a day late here, but did you know yesterday, May 18, was No Dirty Dishes Day? There doesn’t seem to be any record of who initiated this day. Someone suggested it was probably a teenager trying to avoid his or her daily chore. In my opinion, it could just as easily be a mother …
From time to time, I enjoy promoting other authors, especially if I can help them promote a new book. Today I’d like to introduce Jo Huddleston, whose book Wait For Me released in March. First, a little about Jo. Jo Huddleston is a multi-published author of books, articles, and short stories. Her debut novels in …
With the first of my children getting married in a few days, I’m having a hard time thinking of anything worth writing a blog about. So I thought I’d share with you what keeps running through my mind as the wedding approaches. Enjoy this melody and scene from Fiddler On The Roof:
Three weeks from today, my third and last book in the Rustic Knoll Bible Camp series releases. WooHoo! See No Evil is Steven’s story, the blind but capable camper whose cheery encouragement and friendly manner made him a favorite in the first two books. I love the colors and the picture, don’t you? Here’s the …
Moving to a new place always results in that awkward in-between stage where you know a few people, but none of them well enough to call and say let’s hang out together. Have you been there? A couple months after going away to college, when the newness had worn off, I vividly remember wishing I …
House-hunting has given me a new understanding of the importance of foundations. Our rental house shows several cracks in the brick siding that indicate the foundation is shifting. While the slab itself appears to be intact, sitting at our kitchen table gives one a slight sense that the floor is sloping toward the back yard. …
Happy Resurrection Day! He is risen. He is risen indeed!
What was it like the day God died? When they took him down from the cross, wrapped those linens around his body and laid him in a borrowed tomb? When they rolled the stone across the opening, sealing inside the dead body of the son of the living God, the Messiah? I’m reminded of September …
Kids have a knack for speaking truth in all innocence. Years ago when our kids were young, a job change meant we had to leave the house we’d come to love, the neighborhood where friends lived, and the place where so many sweet memories were made. In time, we settled into a new environment, made …
