How We Raise Children

I wish children were able to stay innocent. I wish we could protect them from the harsh realities of pain, disappointment, failure and rejection. How I hope they never experience the stereotypes and discrimination of prejudice. These wishes would hold true in a perfect world. Childhood is about... Sign in to see full entry.

Winding Things Up

I can’t wait to see the children. We didn’t go to Kindergarten last week, and I miss them. Hard to believe the end of the year is fast approaching. What would you give the children as an end-of-the-year gift? I would appreciate your input, as I wind up my time in Kindergarten next month. Glad you... Sign in to see full entry.

A Lifelong Journey

It has been a few weeks since I have helped in Kindergarten. I have really missed the children.

Volunteering in Kindergarten, I am blessed to... Sign in to see full entry.

Mr. Right Is Real!

Today’s quiet time lesson focused on marriage. I am 27, yet in no hurry to marry. I want a man who loves me and knows Christ. I need to wait on the Lord, but I know the right man is out there for every woman, even me. He will come along in God’s time. The Lord loves you. Glad you stopped by. Have a...

A Clean Slate

What a beautiful day! The message today at church centered around John 10. When we accept Jesus as our Savior, we understand that he died on the cross to pay for our mistakes. Due to Jesus’ death and resurrection, we as His children were given a clean slate, free from paying for sin, with which to... Sign in to see full entry.

The Waiting Game

I am still looking for a full-time job. I am not discouraged, as this has given me time to volunteer. I know the Lord will provide the right job for me at the perfect time. After all, His timing is much better than mine will ever be! I have really enjoyed teaching, freelancing and ebaying. For those... Sign in to see full entry.

Method Of Choice

I had a wonderful day! I went out in the beautiful Spring weather to volunteer at the elementary school. A busy lady, today I had double the fun! It was a special treat hearing the children read to me. My friend and I also helped at the Book Fair, the proceeds of which go entirely back to the school... Sign in to see full entry.
