Love Stories and the Greatest Love of All
Here I go again — another love story unfolding in our family! Last month, on Valentine’s Day, my fourth grandson, Brennan, proposed to his sweetheart, Kylie, marking the start of a beautiful new chapter. And just three weeks later, on March 8th, my only granddaughter, Alexia, said “yes” to her sweetheart, Winston. And just like…
I’m a Sap for a Good Love Story
Thursday night we attended a Christmas Open House at the home of dear church friends. How precious they are, and how welcoming they were to many people. As beautiful as their home is – in more Christmas décor than a Christmas store — is this couple, Lester and Barbara, and their story. He is 91;…
Learning to Lead AND Follow
It all started one Wednesday night at our church’s weekly family dinner. We overheard two couples chatting about their next dance class. We leaned in closer to hear more! Turns out, several couples from our church gather for a meal and then dive into dance classes. Take that a “dance-step” further – we jumped into…
It’s a Test Worth Taking
During my last Wednesday night’s Bible Study, one of our gals shared a sweet love story. She told our group that she and her husband were in bed, and he commenced to pick up his Bible and read this to her: “Leah is patient. Leah is kind. Leah does not envy or boast. Leah is…
The Greatest Love Story
I love hearing people’s love stories and I love telling our love story. I am a hopeless romantic.

Not Missing God’s Invitations
How thankful we are to have finished a successful estate sale at Carl’s home! Three days of crowds who were welcomed and immediately heard beautiful sounds of K-Love’s Christian music playing in the background. Many people said: “I love your music!” We sold that vintage stereo system with its Hi-Fi, double cassette player, 5-CD player,…
Annivesary Blessings & Month-a-Versary Blessings
Today, July 8th, 2023, I am remembering a life, a life journey, a love, the adventures of love, the children and grandchildren that came from those adventures AND, the ability to carry on living life to the fullest. Fifty-seven (57) years ago today, I married my best friend, my Ron. Since he graduated to heaven…
The Chapters of My Love Story
The first chapter of my love story began when I was a little girl seeing the adoring love that my mom and dad had for each other. I witnessed their sweet affection for each other. In fact, my dad couldn’t keep his hands off my mom. “Roscoe, QUIT!” She would cry out when he was…
Love Keeps on Giving and Forgiving
The day after Valentine’s Day, I took down the photo of my husband and I and the plaque that read: “A True Love Story Never Ends” from my entry shelf. But, since it’s still the “love month”, I replaced it with the one seen here. This plaque reads: “You are so loved”. I hope it’s…
