Padded Bikini’s for 8 year olds?

Usually Monday is "Music Monday" around here and I post some music for your listening enjoyment because I love my music...and it makes me happy to share the tunes I enjoy with you! However, today I felt I must send you over to MomLife Today and ask you to read the post we ran on Friday afternoon. And then I'm hoping you'll go one step further and place a link to that post on your own site, or facebook page and spread the word. You will be … [Read more...]

Teen w/a Tude? Here’s help…

If you read my post yesterday you may have thought, "Well, she must have the world's best daughter!" Actually, no, but she does have the advantage of the Holy Spirit to guide her...however, sometimes the Holy Spirit cannot guide teens because parents are wimps! (Me included!) Join me over at MomLife Today where I share the latest "round" I had with my teen daughter and how God used it to teach her (and me) a little something of His … [Read more...]

Point of Grace – Music Monday

OK, I can now share why I have been silent for over a week...we were on the FamilyLife Love Like You Mean It Cruise!!! Can I just say...AWESOME!

No Time = No Posts

Hey there, ho there! How you be? I be swamped!  Major deadlines at MomLife Today that have kept me running around on my computer and to meetings whenever I have had some time to myself.  Which has been seldom and at strangely odd times.  Why you ask? Could it be because there have been three...count them three snow days and my teens have been home and I have had a constant houseful of extra teens so the last thing I have time to do is … [Read more...]

Family Matters Blog Shout Out

One of the best books I have ever read on parenting is Raising Kids for True Greatness by Tim Kimmel. I never would have imagined when I read that book that someday I would be blogging on his FamilyMatters Blog! How crazy is that? I think God really enjoys blessing us in ways that makes us literally giggle! I hope you will join me over at their site today as I give a bit of advice on how to keep your children from being terrified of … [Read more...]

Snow Day Mom Melt Down

All this snow day talk amongst mom bloggers, facebookers (I just invented a new word - I'm sure Wikipedia will be calling soon!) and the news outlets sucked up out of my cluttered brain the memory of a blizzard I lived through when my teens were little bitties! It was February and outside the landscape was covered in a blanket of white snow.  Inside our cozy two story home I sat on a warm carpeted stairway, my newborn infant son in my arms and … [Read more...]

MOMzilla Speaks!

My daughter is one amazing girl. Better than I will ever be. Maybe her wonderfulness is due partly because of me...but I suspect it's mostly in spite of me. That's the wonderful blessing of being a mom - if you do it right. Day in and day out dealings with my growing children cause me to really see myself. It's almost as if those little souls daily hold up mirrors that expose worse than deepening wrinkles and graying hair - those mirrors … [Read more...]
