No More “Same-Oh, Same-Oh!”
Carl and I recently decided to spice things up — not in our chili, but in our choices! After realizing we’d been eating at the same-oh, same-oh restaurants, we heard Austin has over 4,000 of them. So we made a pact — no repeats (unless we’re with friends). We’re now at 145 new places and…
The “Ber” Months of Wonder
Call me slow on the uptake, but after all these years, I just realized something: September, October, November, and December all end with “ber.” Who knew? Well, apparently everyone but me. But here’s the thing — I’ve decided to celebrate my discovery. Why? Because it reminded me that life is full of little “aha” moments…
Let the Children Come to Me
Jesus said: “Let the little children come to me!” Big or little — Old or Young — We are His children. Sincerely — I know my age and I know I am not qualified to ride the 12 and under rides. But, I am still riding the joy-of-life bandwagon. Let’s be honest — some folks…
If You’re Wondering and Wandering…

The Wonder of It All
Many photos of sweet, newborn babies are sure popping up on my FB newsfeed lately. I still wonder about the way God knits babies together so perfectly in their mother’s womb (Psalm 139:13) and then they make their debut into this great big world. I was in awe and wonder when mine were placed in…
The Curiosity and Wonder of a Child
The Curiosity and Wonder of a Child This post was inspired by a friend who explained how she was off and running, after her baby started walking and was getting into EVERYTHING! Our lives come in stages. The first stage is infancy when that precious newborn can only cry, sleep, eat and provide reasons for…
Joy of Life Bandwagon
I’m still on the joy-of-life bandwagon to help others (those who get all caught up in the seriousness and practical demands of life) get back the joy of life.They get focused on making a living and they succumb to everyday routine. They forget the child within them and they lose a lot of the flavor…
