Welcome to our journey. The purpose of my blog is not only to journal our life experience, but also to share what God is doing in our lives. I do not claim to be an expert in parenting, marriage, or even the Bible. But I do have a heart to share my experiences and the true love that God has for each and every one of us. You can read our testimony by clicking on the top of the page. And if you'd like to know about the Homeless Ministry my husband started, you can click on the Homeless tab. I hope you will comment freely on my posts and in my community.

Susan, thank you so much for all you did to help with the graduation. (Larry too!) And for everything you've done to support us, love us, guide us and be there for us at EVERY turn in our lives. We are blessed!



Of all these, Dave is most certainly my best friend!

His legs are like marble pillars set in sockets of finest gold. His posture is stately, like the noble cedars of Lebanon. His mouth is sweetness itself; he is desirable in every way. Such, O women of Jerusalem, is my lover, my friend. Song of Solomon 5:15-16
I can say that, can't I??? I mean after all it is from the Bible. :)
You didn't think I would forget you, did you? :)

And I didn't forget the most special friend to have. The one that will never leave or forsake me, my Jesus! If you do not know Him, then I invite you to seek Him. Ask Him to show Himself to you. I promise, He will. Jesus longs to be your best friend.
q
For everyone who asks, receives. Everyone who seeks, finds. And to everyone who knocks, the door will be opened. Matthew 7:8 (NLT)

I thank God for my friends, each and every one of you (whether you're pictured here or not). Those far and near, you hold a special place in my heart. For those far, I miss you! For those near, I miss you too! Because the truth is, there just are not enough hours in day to get everything in. Although this is one area of my life, I'm trying really hard to be more intentional about. :)

Love ya all!
