In the Garden

I just added this video shared on YouTube of Alan Jackson singing In the Garden, live at a concert.  This is one of my favorites from his CD Precious Memories.  I just love it.  I find myself many times during the day singing this.  It brings tears to my eyes just listening to Alan singing [...]

The gears are winding

It is a little weird for this mom to listen to my son talk about his future, not that is weird, I know its part of growing up and part of them becoming adults, growing and getting out on their own, but to listen to him talk with his friends online about different careers he [...]

I remember mine

I been browsing to find some graduation announcements and invitations to get ready for my son’s upcoming high school graduation, and found a pretty communion invitation and it reminded me of my first official communion.  I had been going to church with neighbors who lived across the street and I had invited Jesus into my [...]

A lesson in pruning

I wish my daughter would take a lesson in pruning, so that she can understand that sometimes in the path of our lives, we have to be pruned.  She has  a few toxic friendships, when I say toxic I mean not healthy.  It brings her spirit down and then there is much tension between us.  [...]

Last time for reshaping and retip

Today I dropped off my wedding ring set to Alvin’s Jewelers for the last time to have work done “under warranty”.  Unless I am making a meatloaf for dinner, or working with something like that, I don’t take my rings off.  Since they are “going out of business” and those of use who paid for [...]
