Happy birthday Rebecca! 24 is such a nice perfect number… And I’m 42. (Numbers can be cool as long as you’re just looking at them, not trying to add them or anything.)

I love my girls. They’re both sweet, smart, funny, beautiful… (I could go on and on.) My son, though, has taught me so much about the heart of my Father. Alan’s had a tough week. He’s in a new school this year, and all the anxiety seemed to crash in on him at once. On [...]

Born in Ashland, KY during the Summer of Love, raised and educated in the Commonwealth. I met Jesus Christ on Mother's Day 1975, and I've followed Him on an incredible journey. I've wandered off the path more than once, but He waited patiently for me each time, and welcomed me back. In 1992, He gave me the MOST incredible gift- my husband, Jon, then He followed that in 1997, 2000 and 2006 with three beautiful kids (and they are, not just because they are mine). These days He's giving me the opportunity to write, homeschool and raise those little ones.
