It’s been a scary few days in the Mississippi Delta. We’ve fared much, much better than our neighbors in Arkansas, Northwest Mississippi and the Memphis area, but it has been really alarming hearing the tornado sirens go off in our town a few times. I’m ashamed to say we completely slept through one siren the [...]
You know your kid is growing up when he proclaims all of the kiddie rides at the fair as “lame” and prefers to do this instead.
Especially today, I’m appreciating the ultimate sacrifice that was made to take away MY sins. Especially today, I am thankful that I can worship my Savior with my family in the church that I grew up in. Praise be to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ! In his great mercy he [...]
We have a new sweets shop in town (appropriately) called The Sweetery. My cousin Jessica and I had never had a cupcake from there, but drooled about the flavors of the day we would read about on Facebook. I’m glad to report we remedied that situation today at lunch and taste tested the Snickers and [...]

I remember my mom had a dried flower pressed between the pages and I thought that was [...]

Our life has suddenly hit the accelerator. Our house sold and we are in the throws of packing, t-ball season has started, and the last thing I have time for right now is to plan and cook elaborate meals for dinner. We’ve been needing things fast and in a hurry around here. I’m sure many [...]
For my 12th birthday (waaaaayyyy back in 1986) I got my first pair of contact lenses. I had worn big, thick glasses since third grade and felt so much more confident starting junior high without having to wear them. Unfortunately, by the end of the school year I developed a corneal ulcer and the contacts [...]
