Bunny Trails That Give Bunnies a Bad Name
So I’m still caring for this pint-size Yorkie who, BTW, is about to get “shipped out” because she keeps telling me what to do. “Treat? Go for a Walk? Scratch my tummy! Put me as close to you as I possibly can get!” And, I yield to her, almost every time. Those big brown eyes…
The Security of a Teddy Bear
On February 15, 1903, Toy store owner and inventor Morris Michtom placed two stuffed bears in his shop window, and advertised them as Teddy bears. Michtom had earlier petitioned President Theodore Roosevelt for permission to use his nickname, Teddy. The president agreed and, before long, Teddy bears were being made by toy manufacturers everywhere. I…
A Different Valentine’s Day
It’s 5 am, Valentine’s Day morning. Nothing new about that. That’s my usual get-up-and-go time to first thing post my blog for this day. But, something’s different about this day. It’s 28 degrees outside – the coldest morning so far this year here in Frisco. And, I’m all geared up in my husband’s ski-pants, my…
It’s Just a Matter of Time
I preplanned taking my watch in for repair while I was in Tulsa last week. My jeweler recognized me, and my watch, though it’s been years since going in to see him. As a matter of time AND fact, 13 years. He keeps good records. This 18 kt gold watch is a treasured possession that…
I Raise a Hallelujah
I heard the story behind Bethel Music’s anointed song, “I Raise a Hallelujah”. A few days before Christmas, 2-year-old, Jaxon, was airlifted to intensive care and the church began to fight for his life. A symphony of prayer rose up. Two weeks into the fight, Bethel songwriter, Jonathan Helser, received a text from the dad…
God Sees in Cinematography
I remember, as a kid, trying to count the stars – but, oh my, it was overwhelming. I remember my Biology Class gazing into a microscope and was amazed at all the activity going on in a mere drop of pond water. Larry and Staci, my two Frisco kids, just returned from a trip that…
Remind Me, Dear Lord
Remind Me Dear LordI’m in my cozy chair. I’m a little dozy. I take off my glasses, shut my eyes, and a few minutes later, I’m awakened by this old song in my mind: “Roll back the curtains of memories now and then. Show me where You’ve brought me from and where I could have…
Disappointment or APPOINTMENT
I’ve given it few days since CNN’s headline: Kansas City Chiefs, led by Patrick Mahomes, pull off epic Super Bowl comeback”. Whether you are a 49ers or Chiefs fan or not a football fan at all, if you tuned into the Super Bowl game last Sunday night and watched it all the way to the…
A Match That Was Literally Made in Heaven
Happy 23rd Anniversary to my two children – Larry and Staci Wallace! I am so grateful for your choices, your commitments and your devotion to God and each other. Today, my blog is dedicated to honor you and your example of a “match made in heaven”. And you followed through by treating it that way…
Our President’s State of the Union Address
I wanted to give my response to President Trump’s State of the Union address with Godly words and wisdom. But, instead, I will give you Dr. Jim Denison’s words that pack-the-punch that I wanted to provide. Thank you for allowing me to step back for Dr. Denison to tell us how we should react as…
