Thursday Thoughts–New Things
There is some excitement in trying new things. Trying new things can also be scary. You might fail. You might look foolish. You might hate that new thing. But then you may LOVE it. It may be THE thing that leads to other really cool things.
I remember as a kid, I wanted to be on the swim team. I loved swimming and went to a local lake every [...]
Tuesday Take–Coming Alive
I have had my camera for several years now. It is a Nikon D3000 and I got it for the purpose of taking pictures of the jewelry that I was making at the time. This has not been what I have actually used it for, however. I have taken some pics of my jewelry, but mostly the pics are of people and the places we have visited. Most of the time, I [...]
Monday Music–Encourage Their Pa...
I think all children love expressing themselves in some way, whether it is through music, art, writing, movement…they all have an innate ability to tap into that place in themselves that allows them to create freely. Seeing this develop over time is so inspiring to me.
Allowing that creativity to flow without obstruction. Allowing the [...]
Sunday Spirit–Faith
“The world…is full of resurrections… Every night that folds us up in darkness is a death; and those of you that have been out early, and have seen the first of the dawn, will know it – the day rises out of the night like a being that has burst its tomb and escaped into life.”
― George MacDonald, The Seaboard Parish
Thursday Thoughts–Creativity
I am thinking today about creativity and most importantly, how you find time to pursue it. We all love to get our kids engaged in all forms of art that they are passionate about pursuing, whether it be visual, musical, written or creative expression.
But what about you? What calls to you and makes your soul smile? For me, it is music and cre [...]
Monday Music–Guitar Dylan
Having musicians living in your house can be quite entertaining. Sounds emerge from different rooms and you can just sit back and listen. Sometimes I listen when they think I am not listening…
Dylan is an amazing guitarist. He has incredible ability to listen to music that he loves and be able to play it extremely well. I hear him play [...]

Thursday Thoughts–Challenges
Challenges…that is what is on my mind today. We are finding ourselves at a bit of a crossroads in our life journey. Living full time in an RV is an amazing experience, but it does take sacrifice and patience. And mountains to climb that seem way too overwhelming to even fathom. I have been fighting the challenge, saying “I want o [...]
Sunday Spirit–A New Day
Sunrise in North Little Rock, AR
“Write it on your heart
that every day is the best day in the year.
He is rich who owns the day, and no one owns the day
who allows it to be invaded with fret and anxiety.
Finish every day and be done with it.
You have done what you could.
Some blunders and absurdities, no doubt crept in.
Forget them as soon a [...]
