I drove 6 boys down to Sky-zone today. With a car full of boys, there are always a lot of smells and a lot of energy. I stopped at Barnes and Noble and grabbed myself too many books! Lol, and came to let them play as I read the day away. I decided to pick […]

To some, it comes easy, to others it is a struggle. I am a grown woman that has to be careful to not fall back into tying my worth to what I do, my accomplishments, my fantastic behavior, and how many books I read . The narrative that goes like this, “I do well at […]

Real Life… unfiltered… I have never had my eyebrows done, I have never watched a YouTube make-up video, I use cover girl and Mary K make-up. There is a whole world out there of beauty supplies, tips, and procedures, that I know nothing about. I was recently part of a community where Larry and I […]

I had a friend that was helping coach me through some of my stuff, particularly embracing vulnerability. I told her one day, I thought I took a step because I was doing my hair and I usually would check the back with a mirror and fix it if I needed to and today, I didn’t […]

This incredibly smart man, Dr. French, was driving me home yesterday from our Spring Break in Colorado Springs, it was delightful. He said to me, “the more I think about it the more I am amazed at your dad.” …Hmm, tell me more. He said “I look at you and you make things better everywhere […]

I started thinking more about King David, there are so many things we love about this iconic figure. I have been encouraged over the years as I contemplate his life and specifically what he did in the “waiting”.David was a young man, a young boy maybe about my son’s age and in his family, he […]

As I ran on our beautiful pathfinder today, I took in the new sights of Spring arriving. The birds’ songs have become loud and vociferous, as blue jays, cardinals, and scissor tails, swoop, and dance from the tree branches. I heard a woodpecker overhead, a fantastic, intriguing sound, that everyone should get the privilege to […]

I was so excited, I downloaded the Trail Link app and was exploring new trails around Grandma French’s house. I did 5 miles on the Cricket Frog Trail on Tuesday and was looking forward to the Rockdale River Trail today. It was raining and I decided I was going to go anyway. I started at […]

I ran today after over two months of nursing a sprained ankle. If you read my blog “Own your walk of pain,” it tells the whole story. The temperatures turned this week, and it was glorious outside today. Seventy-One degrees and March 1, 2022, I’ll take it! After not running for two months, uh you […]
