One of the decisions I’m trying to make right now is whether we should start a “reward” program in Twinkle. For those of you who are new to the blog, Twinkle is our program for girls in grades 3 through 5. Here’s what we’re thinking: we’d send a small box to each school program filled [...]

I called our local Habitat for Humanity office a few days ago and let them know that I had some things I’d like to donate from my old townhouse.  They said they’d pick it up this morning and, sure enough, they were right on time. As the men began loading up my boxes of discarded [...]

This time I had handsome Sam as my model! I’m friends with Sam’s mom; she and her husband adopted Sam and have been blessed to have him in their arms since his very day of birth.

A few minutes ago, right after I crawled into bed, my cell rang. It was Allie, also known as the female half of The Most Awesomest Couple Ever. “Hey, are you awake?” “Yeah… what’s going on?” “Well, I’ve got a gift card for Roomie and wanted to give it to ya’ll tonight. Can you come [...]

After church and a quick lunch yesterday, Roomie, Allison and I headed out to set-up some baby registries.  It was quite obvious that Allison and I were far more excited about this than Roomie, as she isn’t the type of person who like putting a list of things out there for people to buy for [...]

Just got to see this picture that one of my Starlite leaders, Magen, took of me at a sleepover we had for middle school girls earlier this year. There’s no telling what I was saying to the girls… it was taken right before we took them into a church service, so I was probably telling [...]

Several months ago, I met a guy named Tyler when he showed up to fill a last minute vacancy in the band that plays for Starlite’s sleepover events.
