Well hey there friends! Today was an awesome day! We are having the annual FamilyLife Staff Conference and we were blessed beyond measure with the worshipful experience of time spent with the amazing band Sanctus Real! This is a band that is well loved by the youth of America - and their parents. It is an odd thing to see standing before you the men that you have sung with through your i-pod and daily Christian radio. Gaining an … [Read more...]
Family Reunion
Time marches on. For me that was easily and eerily obvious this past weekend when I gathered with extended family at a family reunion. How in the world can "cute little Jackson" be the father of an 18 month old? It literally blew my mind to see him chasing that little guy around the yard. Him a father...really? Wasn't it just a couple years ago that he was bragging about finally being able to drive? Obviously it was more than a couple years … [Read more...]

This Mom’s Strange Habits
Singing for no apparent reason. Making up new words to other people's songs. Talking to myself...and answering myself. Checking to "be sure" the oven and stove are turned off. Stopping by my "in box" to see if anyone e-mailed me. (To avoid doing something that really needs to get done.) Dancing for no apparent reason. What's with that photo on the right? Being shocked and appalled every time I find that no one else will … [Read more...]
Disgusting Jelly Beans “Ew”
Has your kid ever wanted to willingly share his jelly beans with you? Probably not. If he does, I suggest you may consider saying no...especially if he is insistent! Did you know there are jelly beans that are described as skunk spray, ear wax, and booger? Oh yeah, and if your children have not had them yet ... it's just a matter of time. So, there are these little boxes of jelly beans called Bean Boozled with 20 jelly beans in a box, … [Read more...]
Heaven Is The Face – Music Monday
I recently had the pleasure of having a lovely conversation with Steven Curtis and Mary Beth Chapman - both amazing people. If you have not yet gotten a hold of his latest DVD, you need to...all of the songs were written as they were grieving the loss of their sweet Maria. Listen, lift up a prayer for them...and spend some extra time today loving your own children. … [Read more...]
Tiger the Mean Cat
So...my friend called me and said, "Because we are moving, we need someone to take our cat...would you be willing to? If not,we are going to have to put her to sleep." Yeah right, how do you say no to that? Pretty sneaky of her eh? She described the cat as mean and explained that she really won't much allow anyone to pet her and that she kinda has a tendency to bite. Lovely. She also shared that she was one tough cat and had made it … [Read more...]
Peach Preserves-YUM!
Another summer memory in the making! Literally. I woke the teens up at 7:00 a.m. loaded them into the X-terra, met up with some friends, went to a nearby orchard and we picked us some yummy peaches...sticky juice running down our chins, as it is totally legal to nibble while plucking! As if that wasn't enough fun, we stopped and got some jars, a 10 lb. bag of sugar and high tailed it back to the kitchen. Oh yeah, this little Mama made some … [Read more...]
