Unique
This picture perfectly depicts my two mini-mes. One lives her life perfectly by the book. She’s a little Swiss engineer in the making. Everything in her mind has a process, a place, and a perfectly good reason why it functions the way it does. The other one could care less about process, order, and functionality……
When the sail catches the wind
Waiting. Sitting in silence. Seasons of waiting are the hardest. But when beauty is found in the waiting… when perseverance prevails… then the very moment when the sail catches the wind and carries us into the next chapter of our lives – that moment becomes so much more beautiful. It is beautiful because we took…
Leaving an intentional legacy
Your past doesn’t define you. It refines you…
Your past doesn’t define you. It refines you… if you let it. The past few months I keep being reminded of where I come from, the seasons I’ve walked through, the stories I’ve lived, the testimonies I have and the mighty God I serve. I’m a master at making excuses about sharing my stories because..…

The sun is slowly peaking over the snow-covered mountains on the horizon. The trees look like crystal masterpieces as the rays are…

Over the past several days or should I say weeks I have found myself encounter the difficulty of making animal sounds. As I am trying to teach my 10-month old the names and sounds of farm animals I wonder who is more amused by it, she or I. Whenever it comes to the goat I…
It’s A New Season – In A Dirt Kind Of Way
Finally, peace! As I plop down on the couch, exhausted, I catch myself smiling at how God communicates to me. I have been chasing my, today, 10-month old daughter around the house, digging potting soil out of her mouth and from underneath her fingernails, closing cabinets behind her, and picking kitty hair out from between…
