Here it is, Saturday already.  We’ve worked on homework for the past several hours, and now the boys are glad to be able to play video games for a bit.  New restrictions will change their playing time, and you can imagine they aren’t very happy about it.  But, hey, their grades might really improve!  OK, […]

I took Parker to meet up with a bunch of friends at the movies last night.  We saw Coach Carter, and it was really great.  No, I didn’t sit right with them, and I didn’t talk to them.  I know my place!  It was good to see a movie, though, since I don’t go very […]

It’s great that Friday is here!  What a week…Parker back in school, Chip in Mid-State practices all day today, and a good report from the doctor who did my surgery.  She’s released me from her care, so I know things are looking up.  She is a terrific doctor, though, and I am so blessed that […]

Home again, and I’m so glad.  Centennial is such a nice hospital, but there’s no place like home.  I’ve been poked, prodded, and stuck with needles until I’m sure that I just won’t tell anyone if I don’t feel well anymore.  No, that’s not true, because I believe in keeping the body healthy, but why […]

Happy New Year!  Any resolutions?  It’s almost time for school to start back.  Hope all of you have a great week!

Would you pray for our friends at Gallatin Presbyterian Church, please?  Their sanctuary caught on fire last night, and the organ, stained glass window, and pulpit were ruined.  We had a great day with my brother’s family yesterday, and then my mom rode home with them.  We’re really going to miss having her here!  For […]

It’s been a good Christmas…though my energy level has surely been on the low end!  Yesterday was awesome…we left home around 11:00 and went to Opryland Hotel for lunch and then to the IMAX to see The Polar Express.  It was an amazing thing to see it in 3-D!  I think everyone in the family […]

Only a few more days until Christmas.  This isn’t the happiest time of year for some of you, though.  You have parents in two different homes, and some have lost a parent altogether.  In the adult world, there’s so much pressure to get just the right gift for the kids and to keep everyone happy.  […]

Only a few more days until Christmas!! Aren’t you about to pop with excitement?  I am just so glad that so many people will stop their busy-ness to celebrate the birth of Jesus!  He is everything, or your life is nothing–nothing that He wants it to be.  Do you know Him?  Oh, please get to […]
