Recently I began following another blogger whose posts I have enjoyed. Her post that caught my eye was listing five things she liked about herself. Check it out here: http://cyranny.com/2020/01/15/5-more-things-i-like-about-myself/ The whole point is that we are quick to find things about our self we do not like, things we want to change, things that […]
Yesterday I posted about heroes, pointing out the difference between our fantasy super heroes and the “real” heroes of history. Check that out at: Who is Your Super Hero? But today reminds me that we have so many heroes to thank for our freedom, not only for the USA but much of the world. Today […]
This is a repost from earlier last year. Since this month is Women’s History Month, I thought I would share again. While I only shared about the last three women on this list in this post, check out some of the others for some interesting and informative stories of women we do not hear about. […]
My latest prayer When I was a little girl I had beautiful red hair and my mother fixed it in curls like Shirley Temple. Everywhere we went people would comment on my hair and I felt special. As a teenager I always felt like I was not “pretty” but I still took comfort in the […]

Getting ready for a fall road trip, I recently opened some pictures from a fall road trip taken three years ago. While driving through the scenic St. Croix River Valley in Minnesota we found an amazing outdoor sculpture park. Founded in 1996 Franconia has an active artist residency program. Each year the park has over […]
It’s Friday and time to take a look at another gospel song. As I thought back over the many gospel songs I grew up singing, I noticed how many had the same name listed as the author….Fanny Crosby. Songs I have loved: Blessed Assurance To God Be the Glory Rescue the Perishing Jesus Keep Me […]

However, since I am a country girl at heart with some southern roots, many of the old songs I love would probably never […]
When I was first diagnosed with breast cancer 17 years ago my oldest daughter bought me a small porcelain doll – a little clown. All through my treatment the little doll sat on my desk at work smiling at me and encouraging me that I was going to make it through this tough time. As […]
I don’t know where I got this story – so I can’t give proper credit to the writer but it really makes me think as we approach another Thanksgiving season – one that is full of chaos and difficult decisions. Do we keep our gatherings small? Do we ignore warnings and enjoy our family and […]
