I asked my family at our Christmas Day Brunch recently. Julie said she had learned from a girl at school who’s always very insulting to her friends to be NICE. I said I had learned that what others think and say about me is really NONE of my business. And our eleven-year-old son, Emmie, surprised …

I said to my hubby, talking about a customer he had to visit early this morning. This person showed up in our life years ago and I’ve never met anyone like him – extremely humble, loyal, faithful, wise and close to God. We had a little get together at our house to celebrate Joshie’s birthday …

This is where I’m going to PUSH myself to be more often. I have my wonderful hubby to thank for another important life lesson. It was after we an argument on the way home from work screaming at each other that I said to him that we should not let the devil in our homes. …
Sing with me… “This is the day, this is the day. That the Lord has made, that the Lord has made. We will rejoice, we will rejoice, And be glad in it, and be glad in it. This is the day that the Lord has made. We will rejoice and be glad in it. This …
