Living in the Peace Zone
At my beauty shop a few days ago — I saw something that wrapped me in peace before I even had time to name it. There I was, getting my hair cut — snip, snip — when I caught sight of another stylist two chairs down. Nothing out of the ordinary, until I saw who…
I love encouraging women about their place in God’s great scheme of things. The Bible speaks of older women training the younger women – and that’s not only in age but in spirit. I’m here, Girls, to show you – you do survive!!! How’s that for encouragement to your world today? I love our Wednesday…
On this special day, I want to extend a heartfelt Happy Mother’s Day to all the incredible women who embody the spirit of nurturing and love. Whether you’re a mother by birth, adoption, or simply by the overflow of your heart, your impact is immeasurable, and your love knows no bounds. As we celebrate Mother’s…
My co-worker and I at the family center are having a little conversation about how God formed and knitted us together in our mothers’ wombs. To think that our God of the universe, the same ONE Who created the heavens, the earth, the waters, the stars, the trees, the animals — is the same ONE…
Three weeks previously, I was at Karen & George’s for a week to help with Mom and give them some respite. Mom was with us in body, but the dementia had taken so much away from this dear one. The only one she recognized occasionally, was Karen, her daughter. Mom could still manage her walker…

I took my liberty with this photo that includes my grandmother, my mom, my…
Goodness gracious! I checked my blog archives and realized that it has been five years, 2015, since I gave credit to where credit is due for ME! Besides God, of course, it is to my dad and precious mother. Today is Mom’s birthday and the cast of characters for this 109th birthday celebration includes Father…
And that is YOU even if you’ve never borne down in the battle cry of birth or not! Of course, I honor my own precious mother today because if it weren’t for her – I wouldn’t be and neither would these children and grandchildren of mine. The best of me came from her. I thank…
