How did I get here? How will I find a way out? We heard a message that took us through the two questions. The man shared his life story and his purpose found within the organization of Convoy of Hope. The message was perfect timing for my husband and I as we faced some events…
Carry something beautiful in your heart
I lost a birthday card from a friend. I purposefully did not open the card. I wanted to savor for later. With travel and other happenings, I came back to my desire to read only to not be able to find the treasure. I got up early this morning to cook, meditate, and spend alone…

Culpeper, VA
I can’t begin to tell you how much I’ve enjoyed going back through the years to see recorded events and adventures. It has inspired me to keep a journal in the category of “meaningful places” on my blog. We have a beautiful couple we’ve known for years. Watching her grow up and being a part…
How do you love?
How do you love? Each of us has a love language according to Dr. Chapman. We love differently when our child is two years old than when they are 32 years old. The love is the same; yet, the way we love looks different. As you reflect on the many relationships you’ve been involved in…
