Every night at dinner my husband asks the question, "Tell me one thing about your day" and the conversation starts flowing. Each of my other family members had shared their one thing...and it was my turn. So, as I was going into an enthusiastically exciting sharing time about two meetings I had about MomLife Today and some exciting opportunities that are developing for 2011 my son raised his hand and started squirming in his seat. His … [Read more...]
Board Dinner (no pressure there!)
So, when asked to host the Board of Directors of FamilyLife for dinner at my home I readily accepted, thinking...that'll be fun! Really? Fun? What was I thinking? OK, it did end up being fun, because they are an amazing group of men, but I am here to confess I jumped into my crazy cycle for a little while. It went something like this, oh no... my home is too small what will I prepare? how much will they eat? my home is too … [Read more...]
Random MOMents
My daughter and son going out to dinner before Youth Group – just so they could spend some time together! The blessing of good health – I can take walks daily in His Creation! Sweet memories made during an amazing camping trip with six Godly families. Panic…no chocolate – then remembering, chocolate morsels meant for baking…satisfaction found. Finding a photo taken of me and my amazing Grandmother and setting it right next to my … [Read more...]
Dr. Phil…Almost Right
I try to watch some of the offerings made available on television – I think it’s important to know what’s going on in the world even as I strive to remain not of the world. Not surprisingly, more and more, there are programs I simply cannot view. Hollywood has sunk pretty low and there are few moral or meaningful programs offered. I am also weary of unauthentic representations of Christians. That’s one of the reasons I think blogging is so … [Read more...]

New Header Time?
OK - I am so excited...my very creative and artistic daughter is going to make me a new header for my blog! She has always been my biggest supporter when it comes to me following my dreams! (Well, her and my hubby!) I think she has a keen appreciation for the fact that I had a boomin career, but set it aside and "retired" upon becoming a mother so I could concentrate on momlife. She has always tagged along and been quite helpful as I did my … [Read more...]
Teen Modesty Applauded!
Sometimes adults make me crazy when it comes to appropriate dress for children and teens. I mean, it's bad enough I have to see adult women scantily clad on every magazine, billboard and television screen. It's like an assault on the eyes - and I'm not even a guy and we all know it's a whole different kind of an assault on males. But, it is a whole different kind of stupid when adults actually encourage and promote immodest dress amongst … [Read more...]
Mama’s Song – Music Monday
Today my teen daughter came to me and suggested today's choice for Music Monday...after listening to the song you'll understand why her choosing the song made me smile. Someday the man her father and I have prayed so long for will come along and this song will then have much more meaning! Enjoy Carrie Underwood singing Mama's Song... … [Read more...]
