Oh, Yes, We Matter
My Bryson turns 17 today. He is my youngest grandchild and has been such a bright light in my life for these 17 years. He represents the finale of grandchildren. I’m okay with it because my life has been so full of so much joy for so many years that I am full to overflowing…
Romans 8:28 – The Good News of Bad News
We are known as an optimistic family. We reinforced optimism in our children with “You are champions. You can do anything if you set your heart and mind to it. “I can’t” not accepted in this house! With God all things are possible.” We purposely spoke: “God is good — all the time” regardless of…
Was Jesus at Your Table?

This love celebration started with a precious…
It’s Potato Salad and Chocolate Cake Time
That sounds like a crazy combination, doesn’t it? But in my day – in the South – if those words are said together, it means that somebody passed away. That’s just what we do. When there’s a funeral, there’s always a dinner that’s provided for the family. Or, the dinner is taken to the home…

Friday morning, I took Larry his requested “Granny’s Chocolate Cake” for his birthday — well, it’s her recipe, but now I get to take the glory for having perfected it! LOL! Since I’m going to be out of the country on his birthday, June 9th, and since we’re a family that one day of celebration…
I LOVE Chocolate!
I have a confession to make. I LOVE chocolate so much so, that I should be a member of Chocoholics Anonymous (if there is such a group)! One of my earliest kid memories was my Mom’s chocolate gravy, and after Sunday night church, my Dad taking me to the little store next door for a…
