And the LIGHT Keeps Shining Brightly
Day 4 of 365 days of my photo inspirations for 2015: Tonight I was taken with the lights on many homes that are still brightly lit and shining in my children’s Texas neighborhood. While many Christmas lights have been put away for another year, I, and many others will conclude our Christmas season on January…
Babe Magnet Captures This Babe
Day 3 of 365 days of “Seizing the Moments” in photos this year. What could be closer to our Heavenly Father than the purity and preciousness of a baby? This little angel was across the aisle from me on my flight from Seattle to Dallas today. His shirt said “Babe Magnet” on it. He was.…
The First “Seizing the Moment” of the New Year
Day 2 of Photo Inspirations — The First “Seizing the Moment of the New Year”Three years ago, my New Year’s resolution was to be on purpose, every day, to make Facebook my place of celebrating life, giving hope and inspiration, sharing God’s faithfulness and expressing my great passion for sharing His love with others.

An Entire Year of Awesomeness Awaits Us
Day 1 of Photo Inspirations — An Entire Year of Awesomeness Awaits Us A happy and blessed 2015 is my prayer for all of my FB friends today! Being with my two youngest grandsons made New Year’s Eve so special. We had lots of fun making videos (or should I say, Brennan made videos).…
Happy New Year’s Eve! 2015 is Almost Here!
This was the headline from Sydney, Australia at their midnight this morning: “Kiss 2014 goodbye! Sydney kicks off New Year celebrations with seven tonnes of fireworks in spectacular display over Harbour Bridgen.” But it’s still New Year’s Eve to us in North America — and my celebration, tonight, will include my little grandsons who will…
God With Us
Since a child, I always loved the sweet and tender atmosphere of Christmas. I’m still captivated by the beauty of all the faith, friends and family traditions we enjoyed — precious times — laughter, joy, and making lots of memories. But those times are past — just momentary — so what consolation and reassurance we…
Magic is Still in the Air
It’s a “Silent Night”, here in Washington, as the children are nestled all snug in their beds, while visions of sugar plums (or at least the last piece of Jesus’ birthday cake they ate tonight) is dancing in their heads. But before now, it was a full, busy day! Baseball practice, buying some things with…
And His Name Shall Be Called Prince of Peace
“And His name shall be called…………Prince of Peace.” Isaiah 9:7 Of all the scriptures that we hear during the Christmas season, this is one of my favorites. That’s because I have first-hand experience of knowing that peace that can only be found in knowing the Prince of Peace. He has kept me calm, assured,…
Seizing the Moments — Wahoo Style
Seizing the moments! That’s the way I live today….more than ever. I know how valuable and precious those moments are as each day, month and year goes by so quickly. So I define the moments. I don’t let them define me. My sweet husband was a man of many skills and talents. His artistry…
They Gave….Then Bowed Down and Worshipped Him
“On coming to the house, they saw the child with his mother Mary, and they bowed down and worshiped him.” The Magi (Wise Men) worshipped — and brought very costly gifts to the newborn King. The gifts were gold, frankincense, and myrrh. Not such practical gifts, but most definitely…valuable gifts. A gold brick in today’s…
