"LORD, you have assigned me my portion and my cup; you have made my lot secure. The boundary lines have fallen for me in pleasant places; surely I have a delightful inheritance." Psalm 16:5-6


Ours is a story of what God can do with two silly teens, starting off with no clue;

And baby thrown in, just for good measure. We didn’t know that God would increase our treasure

With four added on in rapid succession, filling our lives with joy and hard lessons.


We’ve had our share of valleys and hills, of times of abundance, and unpaid bills.

We once thought success would bring us bliss; we’ve learned that loss does a better job of this,

As we lean on our Savior, Who always delivers, regardless of the size of our quiver.


Although we’re grateful for the times of ease, the hard times are useful for learning to please

Our Heavenly Father, learning to walk in His Truth, of which we often talk.

May the Lord help us humbly and faithfully serve, staying mindful that the next generation observes.


Prop up your feet and grab a cup of coffee or tea while I open up

The book of my life, without further ado, and narrate the musings of my heart to you.

February 2012: Month of the Wish


Don't worry. 
I'm not superstitious, and I don't make wishes. 
I believe fully in the sovereignty of God.

Still, what stay-at-home-mom doesn't "wish" for more hours in her day?

Well, it's leap year, and that means that we get 24 days' worth of an extra hour per day.
The beauty? 
It's all crammed into one day!
So, the way I look at it is that I get an entire day to devote wholly to doing all the things that I can't seem to accomplish most days.
And I have 28 days to plan.

Is this recognized as a national holiday? 'Cause it should be. Maybe we can have a party...
