When The Salesman would travel regularly to Chattanooga he would bring home a beautiful brown bakery box of lemon cookies iced with a thin glaze that would puddle in tiny pools surrounding each cookie. The first time he brought them home and announced what they were, I had a question blip across my mind: "Why did he bring LEMON cookies home and not raspberry, or oatmeal, or..." I am so glad that the conversation only went on in my mind, because once I sank my teeth into those light, lemon ...

Scripture Memory Team – Verse 10
I got a tattoo. Are you surprised? . . It's a Bible verse! . . Oh, it is only a temporary tattoo to aid in Scripture memory. Gotcha, didn't I? I will never forget when my youngest shared with me about a tattoo she was thinking of getting. Some conversations will be forever etched in my mind; but, not that one, because the details were impertinent. It was the way she chose to share with me. Yes, I will always remember the honor she gave me in communicating her thoughts ... Read More about Scripture Memory Team – Verse 10
Finding Beauty in Every Face & Place – Following a Butterfly
I went in a different direction when I started my morning prayer walk around our yard and was I ever glad I did because I saw a beautiful yellow and black butterfly floating around the Abelia blooms.

I just followed along as he went from the blooms that were up high to blooms that hung ... Read More about Finding Beauty in Every Face & Place – Following a Butterfly

Finding Beauty in Every Face & Place – A project completed
This picture is so beautiful to me. It was taken at the Biltmore on January 3, 2018 while The Salesman and Victoria Leigh and I toured the grounds. As I remember the day, it was the coldest one ever; but, the people and the place warmed my heart and we really enjoyed our time together. I had it on my mind to share this favorite picture because I finished a writing assignment and though I have many beautiful pictures from this last week, I just kept thinking of this one. I felt like I agreed ... Read More about Finding Beauty in Every Face & Place – A project completed
