It was inevitable, y’all, that I’d declare a blogging break.  If your a reader you’ve probably seen this coming for awhile now.  And, at the end of the day, perhaps I’m nothing if not consistent; I also declared a break on May 26, 2011 & June 18, 2012.  Senioritis anyone? Only this time, I’m taking a […]

Around this time last year, I made the mistake of putting off enrolling Rhysie in 3′s pre-school for the Fall.  When the Fall rolled around I couldn’t find a single school that would take him except the pricey private schools.  Man, that was an oversight.  All year, Rhysie’s asked when he gets to go to […]

books for establishing depth

For almost 3 years, I’ve been using the Seeking God’s Face Devotional Prayer Bible as my primary quiet time entry point.  I have a 3.5 yr. old son.  It’s been a wonderful tool as I’ve weathered the grueling life stage that is raising small children.  Ain’t nobody got time to bust out markers & print […]

People say the hardest person to lead is yourself.  While I find that to be abundantly true in my own life, I’ve realized I’m also the hardest person to have grace on. Lots of people say I am aptly named.  I believed I was named by God and gifted with grace.  I believe I have […]
