Don’t Forget Your Joy

Don’t Forget Your Joy

If there was one piece advice that you could give someone, what would it be? Mothering advice? Family raising advice? Cooking? Cleaning? Fashion? In this day and age we are all full of opinions. We all have advice to share and stories to tell. We have experiences that...

Sunday Prayer: Fall

Dear Lord, Thank you for allowing us to live through another season. Summer has ended and while it was fun, we are looking forward to new experiences. Please keep our hearts light and full of love as new things come our way. Even if we feel like we are doing the same...

It’s The Thought That Counts

  For the longest of time, I thought that my home had horrible lighting.  Normally, we don’t get direct sunlight through our windows but we do get light. With our regular go-to cameras, the light that I was getting wasn’t good enough. Mr.C. has seen...

Sunday Prayer: Final Stretch

Dear Lord, It always seems like time is speeding by when we come to a deadline. It’s almost as if we were hoping that by putting off the task, it would be easier if it was done later. Also Lord, it feels like no matter how much preparation you think you have...

Life is What You Make of It

I have heard the phrase, ” Life is what you make of it” countless times. In fact so many times that I am not really sure if Eleanor Roosevelt was the first one to say it. But since that I have matured (and aged)–I can understand it and see the truth...

It’s All About Our Perception

This Memorial weekend, aside from spending time with family, I can honestly say it is a great wake up call. I am not a military person, and those who I know who served in wars have long passed away, but I can’t help to think about what they went through. Not...
