Hello! God has a way of smacking me upside the head and helping me see more clearly. That’s exactly what happened to me when I viewed this YouTube video: I have two autistic children, and yet if I’d met this woman on the street, I’d have had absolutely no clue that she was so brilliant, […]
What mother doesn’t feel great about the fact that she can kiss bruised palms and scraped knees and see tears instantly disappear? Last night while I was busy bathing Zoe, Riley somehow managed a nasty scrape on the top of her foot. Don’t ask me how. Thirty seconds before the scrape appeared, she had been […]
It’s a good thing that God has used my children to teach me to have a sense of humor about myself, because lately I am just “cracking myself up” all the time. The kids and I started a tradition a few years ago wherein we spend the week before Thanksgiving celebrating some of the people […]
Ms. Jaime, Harris Creek Elementary’s OT, told me a “Riley story” today that is so classic Riley I just had to retell it here. I love hearing the words, “I’ve got one for the blog!”🙂 Apparently Riley stopped in to visit Ms. Jaime one day before Halloween and initiated a conversation (YEA, Riley!!). “Ms. Jaime, […]
I looked up this morning from my Bible, and there was Adam, coming down the stairs with his shirt on backwards and as usual, a big grin on his face. Me: Good morning, Adam! Adam: Good morning! Coffee? Me: Yes, you can have a little, but it’s not ready yet. It has to brew first. […]
What a blessing it is that God uses our kids to help us have a sense of humor about ourselves. I just love the things they say. Just this morning, Zoe was studying Kevin’s face carefully and said, “Daddy, you have a very sneaky nose.” I almost choked on my cereal. Just last week, my […]
Hello all, So many of you have said, “I haven’t received any updates on the kids lately (a comment for which I feel extremely blessed—that you pray for us and want to know means more to us than words can say),” that Kevin and I thought we’d start a blog that you can read if […]
“Your public speaking ability radiated your passion for Jesus. There was a true sense of comfort and peace as well as joy and truth.”
“Having Elysa speak for us has been such a blessing. She speaks with such a level and ease and comfort. It is like sitting across the kitchen table with your best girlfriend and a cup of coffee. Elysa has such an incredible passion for God’s Word and it is apparent as she speaks with great knowledge and understanding. We at Essex Village have had the pleasure of seeing God’s handiwork in Elysa throughout her life. She has allowed the Potter to mold her and make her His Workman.”
