I’m Just A Girl Who Is Searching For Peace

I’m just a girl who is looking for her peace. At this point in my life, I expect the peace to live my life fully ME. To love who I am, both inside and out, and to accept and appreciate my one-of-a-kind blueprint… even when. Even when I’m not on my low end of the…

Her Thoughts On Our Mornings

I’m sorry, Mama. I know you wanted me to eat my breakfast. I was just so excited for another big day. Besides, pancakes are the best food for building. I just couldn’t wait to make you a castle. A pancake castle for a princess. Poor Mama. I saw you holding my pants open for me,…

My Children Will Love Your Children

My Children Will Love Your Children

Right now, while my children are young, I have this beautiful chance to instill in them a passion for loving others. I have the chance to instill in them an awe of the beauty of every skin color, every language, every culture. To instill in them a true appreciation of differences. And I have a…

Last Night, We Brought Out The Sick Tent

Last night we brought out the sick tent. My kids each have their own — just a standard child’s play tent that sometimes serves a special purpose. I had a sick tent when I was little, too — a seemingly small piece of childhood that actually looms large in my memories. I remember my mom…

I Wonder Who She’ll Be Someday

I Wonder Who She’ll Be Someday

I watch her sleeping peacefully, and I wonder who she’ll be. I wonder what will matter to her. I wonder who she’ll let through her walls, who she’ll trust with her secrets, who she’ll love. She doesn’t know how long I prayed for her. She doesn’t know how long I dreamed I’d be a precious…

You’re Always Going To Be Too *Something* For Somebody

You’re Always Going To Be Too *Something* For Somebody

Truth time? You’re always going to be too much or too little for somebody. So am I. So is everyone else. Just don’t let that somebody be you. Don’t believe those little lies. Sometimes you’re gonna look in the mirror and convince yourself you’re too wrinkled. And it might make you wonder when you got…

Love Means Never Having To Say You’re Sorry

Love Means Never Having To Say You’re Sorry

“Love means never having to say you’re sorry.” It’s the catchphrase of “Love Story,” the iconic 1970 film that catapulted Ryan O’Neal to true heartthrob status. I fell for O’Neal and this somber romance as a pre-teen (in the 1990s, thank you very much), and the movie stuck with me. But I really hate that…

Here’s What No One Tells You About Marriage

Here’s What No One Tells You About Marriage

When you’re planning to get married, they tell you it’s gonna be hard. Marriage is a lot of work, they say. It demands relentless effort. Nurturing. Forgiveness. Compromise. Communication. And all of that is true. But there’s one thing no one tells you before you say your vows. Truth be told, I think the sweet…

An Intersection of Lifetimes: A Tale of Two Generations

An Intersection of Lifetimes: A Tale of Two Generations

What strikes me about this picture is that it captures the intersection of two lifetimes. It’s a beautiful, if inevitably too brief, overlapping of life’s most precious seasons. These two special girls, one in her spring and the other in her winter, share this fleeting moment in time, and somehow, I’m blessed enough to be…

When Grief Stopped By To Visit…

When Grief Stopped By To Visit…

She first noticed Grief when he peered through her window, but she didn’t dare let him inside. She’d already lived such a long time with Shock and Denial and Anger and Sadness. By now they were dull, but familiar, and she was comfortable with that arrangement. So she let Grief wait outside for a very…
