Embracing the Moment
I am currently sitting in my quiet home office listening to the rain/snow hit my window. It’s very still in my home, very peaceful. But there is an atmosphere of change occurring because of the threat of this COVID 19 virus. So many emotions enter where I feel a bit frozen in my fingertips to…

Parenting Mirrors aka Children
I have a child who has his own story to one day share. It is not mine to share, nor do we know the scope of his story yet. But I do have my own story to share- as a mom. I had four children in four years before the age of 30. There were…

Saltine Crackers
I sat in angst over the big decisions I needed to make. I felt like it was all I knew. I was so tired of sitting in the indecisive place. I sat down with my hot tea and my good friend who has already walked this season of life in a neighborhood coffee shop. I…

Grief
A heaviness filled this air yesterday as we turned on the Pro Football game. The news of Kobe Bryant and daughter’s death being told over and over again. My 38 year old body feeling the slam of the news. I look to my husband who looked up to this man, and he is somber. We…

Losing the Guardrails
I’m walking along the road which has been “my road” for quite some time, and I notice the guardrails are no longer there. The path narrows to just a crease in the ground. It no longer looks like what I had imagined. It went from a well paved road to a dried up river bed…

The Whole Vulnerable Cleanse
The past few days I have been prepping for a 10 Day Transformation that starts on Monday. It will include a cleanse and fasting and more importantly, some revelation of my relationship with God, relationship with myself, and my body and food. This is big for me. Huge. Ginormous. I have started to uncover some…

Blooming
When you see your child blossom…be still my heart. This boy who has dealt with the deep dark and dense soil that surrounded him…this boy whose left and right was black and white on some days. Some days I wondered underneath the dirtiness, the filth, if there was a seed planted down underneath the top…
