I love Easter, don’t you? It’s not just because of the crispy, candy-coated, malted milk ball-centered Robin’s Eggs I look forward to all year. But hey … YUM. (Introduced my grands to those decadent delicacies of spring this year and now we’re all addicted.) My heart affinities for my Savior are always lavishly renewed at ...
Stop and Smell the Blossoms
As a heaven-sent follow-up to my last week’s post on how spring has sprung here in central Florida, I witnessed a super cool scene yesterday that’ll resonate in my memory as a unique-moment snapshot for years to come. It happened as I was driving along a main thoroughfare – in a hurry as usual – ...
Sprung
Spring has sprung in central Florida! I know many of my BBFFs (Blessed Blog Friends Forever) are still toasting their toes by the fireplace, so I thought you might enjoy a few pics from the flower state in prep for your own lovelies bursting forth before you know it! Our wonderful community of sisters love ...
Squishy Cheeks
Call me a quivering pile of mush. Go ahead. It’s true. I’ll admit it. So when this exquisitely squishy face needed a temporary home during the month of Feb – not coincidentally the month we celebrate love – I couldn’t help but raise my hand. The only trouble is that he’s older than Methuselah. He ...
Makin’ Moonshine
With my ancestry roots deeply embedded in the rural red clay of Georgia, I’m quite sure some of my forefathers were not above whipping up a batch or two or moonshine if the occasion called for it. I just never thought I’d be whipping up anything of the kind. Actually, lest you worry about the ...
BFF Club Winners!
I’m happy to announce the three winners of last week’s BFF Club’s impromptu giveaway (I seem to do that an awful lot!). If you’re unaware of my BFF Club, it’s my inner circle of girlfriends who’ve volunteered to help me and my ministry by prayer support, encouragement, personal feedback, and spreading the word about my ...
Happy Pal-entines!
Just a little love note for all my BFFs (Blessed Friends Forever) on the day we celebrate love: Happy Pal-entines Day to you! Papa God cherishes you … and I do too! P.S. I’m double-celebrating! I get to eat my first choco-treat in SIX WEEKS (been dieting since Christmas. I lost 15 lbs WOOHOO!). ...
Some Things Are Hard to Explain
In my role as the preschool Bible Story Lady at my church, I found myself presented with the daunting task of explaining the Trinity to 4-year-olds. Now, many adults – make that most adults – find the concept of the three-in-one nature of the Almighty Creator of the Universe difficult to grasp. So imagine trying to bring ...
We Have a Winner!
I’m thrilled to announce the winner of my Deep Waters Giveaway! But before I do, I’d like to say how very meaningful it was to me to lift the prayer requests of all my BFFs (Blessed Friends Forever) who trusted me to pray for their needs. If you recall, the only requirement to enter the ...
May I Have a Word With You?
A fresh new year is now firmly upon us. I waited a few weeks into January to broach this lets-start-out-right nugget so that if you’re like me and feel like your feet are stuck in suction muck, you’ll have had a little extra time to get your act together. For many, the first of a ...
