Life as a wife, mom, nana and follower of Christ; hoping to share from lessons learned
There is something both familiar and entirely new about finishing a book. I remember the first time, the mix of excitement, uncertainty, and the quiet question in the back of my mind: Will this matter to anyone else the way it matters to me?

I sat upon the bank atop the mossy bed.Settling in, I watched it pass, while visions filled my head.What tales could old man River tell?

Spring is trying to break forth but winter stubbornly holds her back blowing a north wind with all his strength. Yet I see buds and blossoms and the birdsong is different. They know change is coming and they gloriously and expectantly herald its arrival. The eerie wind shrieks and hisses in response as if trying […]
