Reflections
Don’t forget that many of the troubles and stresses that come in life are not your fault. Nor are they your loved one’s fault. They just happen. Work together to overcome these obstacles and you can grow closer rather than creating a wedge. … Continue reading
April 19, 1995 ~ May We Never Forget
April 19, 1995. The day that forever changed Oklahoma. We became a ball of fear, caution and grief. But at the same time we turned to each other for comfort. We leaned more on our faith. Hugged our children tighter. … Continue reading
Changed
I am a firm believer that we do not stay the same. We are constantly changing. So I ask myself, am I changing today for the better? I hope you have a couple of minutes to listen to this song by … Continue reading

A Mama’s Hope
Good Friday. I really never understood why it was called “good”. I’ve read the account repeatedly. I could understand Easter being called “Good Sunday”. But Friday was a horrific day for Jesus. For those that loved Him. For His mama. … Continue reading

Amazing Grace
“Amazing Grace how sweet the sound, that saved a wretch like me. I once was lost, but now am found, was blind, but now I see.” (by John Newton) This is the song that is stuck in my head this early Sunday … Continue reading

President Nixon ~ On His 100th
I knew a little girl, years ago, that was infatuated with Richard Nixon. Maybe it was because it was the first time she was aware of this thing called “politics” or a presidential election? Maybe it was simply because her … Continue reading
All In A Day’s Work
He left his normal early time in the morning. Thirteen hours later, we reflected on his workday/birthday over dinner. Bosses, demands, schedules, orders. A little delivery to a local food-bank. That was his birthday gift to himself. Several families would have … Continue reading
