II Peter 3:9 Sunday was Little Bit's Birthday!! We didn't have a huge party this year, but it was still a very exciting and exhausting day for a seven-year-old: two church services, all the presents, all the cake, all the playing... So, Monday morning was not so exciting. The tired Birthday Princess definitely woke up … Continue reading Longsuffering

Displaced, Part Two
After thinking about how Jesus was displaced in the most extreme ways, I went on to ponder how I should follow His example... First, I can remember that this world is not my home. "For in this we groan, earnestly desiring to be clothed upon with our house which is from heaven:" II Corinthians 5:2 … Continue reading Displaced, Part Two

When Mama Ain’t Looking

With these new abilities, I try to give her some freedom and the chance to make more decisions for herself. It won't be long until she heads off to school, and I … Continue reading When Mama Ain’t Looking

Blessed Beyond Measure
Shopping is usually a stressful experience for me. I head out with a specific goal in mind, something that I feel is simple and straightforward, but come up empty-handed after searching high and low. I don't know if the problem is more with my expectations, the selections available, or my refusal to pay ridiculous prices … Continue reading Blessed Beyond Measure
Because…
It's time to wake up. Why? Breakfast is ready. Why? Let's brush our teeth. Why? Don't draw on your baby doll. Why? Use a nice voice. Why? Let's go outside. Why? Time to sing. Why? You have to listen. Why? That's pretty much how it is around here with Little Bit nowadays. It really doesn't … Continue reading Because…
Backseat Driver
True Story: I am a horrible passenger. I don’t mean to be, but I seriously do not feel safe sitting close to the white line! I don’t know if it’s an anxiety thing or something with my perception, but I feel like I’m about to land in the ditch most of the time (Surely it’s … Continue reading Backseat Driver
