Holy Saturday – the Day After — the Day in the Middle
Here we are — the day after Jesus died. The day between death and life. A pause. A spacer. In the middle there sits the silence of Holy Saturday. If it were our loved one, today, we would be going to the funeral home to attend to the details: the coffin, the funeral, the music,…

I’m a Sap for a Good Love Story
Take for example, my second oldest grandson, he and his girlfriend just had their one-year dating anniversary.

I Love a Good Love Story
One of our favorite movies was the blockbuster, “Love Story”, with Ryan O’Neal and Ali MacGraw! While I love a good on-screen love-story movie, there is nothing like real life ones. The first chapter of my own love story began when I was a little girl seeing the adoring love that my mom and dad…

The Greatest Love Story Ever Told
I love hearing people’s love stories. In fact, that’s one of my “asks”, not just for table-talk, but I sincerely love hearing how couples met, fell in love and got married. Maybe I’m living vicariously through their stories, and while I love a good on-screen love-story movie, there is nothing like real life ones. I…
Happy Birthday Eve! I’m Still Here. I’m Not Done.

There’s No Age Limit for Love and Romance
They say love strikes when you least expect it. And yesterday it was proven 100% to be true. Nancy, my “single-for-17-years” dear friend lived just across the pond from me. We were among the first who moved into our brand new Hyde Park community in Tulsa in 2012. And, Bill and his wife, moved into…
