More About Me...

I am a wife, mother, follower of Jesus and friend. I live life by faith and understand that God's plans for me are always better than any plans I can have for myself. I don't consider myself a writer, but I love to write. I blog about my experiences, my passions, my thoughts and my failures. It all matters to me, but only some of it may matter to you. Enjoy.

Just a Little More...

My tagline is significant to me because I truly believe that "the rest is still unwritten" - I've learned to simply live each day with gratitude and happiness. You really, honestly don't ever know what tomorrow holds. So, just enjoy the journey.

I’ve never felt so [...]

Journey to Sierra Leone: Day 4 - Part 2

After our interviews in the War Wounded Camp, I asked Joan if we had another interview set up and she gave me a look that perfectly reflected how I was feeling at the moment…. I just can’t handle any more right now. Agreed. There are hundreds upon hundreds of stories to be told in Grafton, [...]

Journey to Sierra Leone: Day 4 - Part 1

Tuesday morning dawned bright & beautiful with the generator serving as my alarm clock at 5:00 a.m. Devotions were good, again, as we sang my favorite worship song, Chris Tomlin’s God of This City. I just love the lyrics…
You’re the God of this city
You’re the King of these people
You’re the Lord of this nation
You Are
You’re [...]

Journey to Sierra Leone: Day 3

Monday arrived bright and blurry-eyed with the generator kicking on outside my window at 5:00 a.m. - giving me a little time to drift in and out of sleep until 5:45 when Bridget and I needed to get up and get ready for devotions. One good thing was that I didn’t have to take much [...]
