Christian Crafts for Easter to Teach About the Resurrection

April 3, 2017

Easter is coming up, and as any of you who follow along here know, I love a good art or craft project. There’s just something about creating and working with your hands that is good for the soul! It makes you pause and focus on something that’s not social media, entertainment or (let’s face it) ...

Overcoming Anorexia.

October 1, 2014

Today is my birthday and so I naturally reflect on living into my God-sized dream this past year. It causes me to remember these words: "You're not an anorexic but your life is." Words spoken to me over 12 years ago by my therapist. While that may seem like along time ago to you it seems like ...

October: Pin God 1st!

September 29, 2014

Hello October! It is my favorite month of the year mostly because it is my birthday month. Yep! I totally love my birthday. Arizona also teases us with cooler temps. It goes down to 95 and then back up again but at least we get to play peek-a-boo with something below 1oo degrees! This month I ...

Pin God 1st Gets A Makeover!

August 27, 2014

September! That sounds like such a dreamy month. I am envisioning parts of the country that are cooling off and watching things change colors but here in Phoenix we consider it painful. It SHOULD feel like Fall and instead it is still over 100 degrees and the sweat...it just keeps dripping. We ...

August Printables

August 4, 2014

I was on vacation last week. Like a real, live, whole week long vacation. I don't think we have ever done that as a family. Usually, it is just a few days here or there. But, a full seven days really allows vacation mode to actually set in. And let me just say it was good. I had every ...

Whistle While You Work.

July 14, 2014

One surefire way to know whether or not you are on the wrong track is to watch your children. When my daughter began praying each morning at breakfast, "Dear Lord, please help us to finish school early, so we can have some fun today" (OUCH!)...I knew I was doing something wrong. At first blush, ...

Generosity of Joy

June 30, 2014

Do you ever find yourself nit-picking your friends, your children, your husband? There are definitely times when I can be a little snarky with my husband. When he gets home, he leaves a trail from the front door to the kitchen of the mail, his work out clothes, his lunch dishes...you name it. ...

Abiding in Obedience.

June 23, 2014

I LOVE the movie The Princess Bride (amazon.com link). There is a great scene where the villain, Vizzini, keeps saying that what he sees and hears is, "Inconceivable!" He uses this word it again and again, and what he is doing amounts to denying the obvious. Finally another (great) character ...
