College might not matter all that much…

Tonight was Good Friday church. And true to its name, it was good, really good. In the middle of a powerful and one of my most beloved songs, “The Old Rugged Cross” something came to me. I was overwhelmed with what was consuming my attention, in the middle of my most beloved worship song, I [...]

I became “that” Mama…

Well, on Saturday, I became “One of those moms”… You know the type… Isaac and I were playing at the little park by our house, it was nice outside. We were both looking a little bed headish. I had 3 day old hair, he had on a onesie and some ratty shorts. We were having [...]

Swimming and Spoons

Your Mama Loves YOU!

 

Hey buddy -
As I look back on the last year, I smile when I remember what I was feeling the week before you came. I was so excited to meet you, to see you for the first time, to kiss your face and hold you close. I would lay in bed at night and watch [...]
