Please pray for our family. My precious mama has passed on to her eternal home.

I’m not sure why, this picture just made me think spring. This little one just makes my heart smile.

Finding Joy

Thou art the Lord who slept upon the pillow; Thou art the Lord who soothed the furious sea, What matter beating wind and tossing billow If only we are in the boat with Thee!

Hope Chest…

In the midst of this season, I’ve been trying to sneak in a moment or two for hope chest projects. This is a fleece blanket for Jessica’s collection. Fleece is easy to find on sale right now.

This Week

First, thank you Aunt Judy! Your card arrived, of course, on a day when I most needed it. Yesterday, I mailed my mama’s hair off. I didn’t think it would bother me, but it did. In fact, I don’t think I made it out the door of the post office before the tears began to fall down my cheeks. You…
