The laundry basket was spilling-over full. Muddy paw prints all over the entryway floor. I forgot to start the crockpot (again!) so there was nothing planned for dinner and a rough day at school sent me home with a pounding headache. I just wanted to close my eyes for a few minutes. Long enough to … Continue reading When You’re Weary (Encouragement for Moms, Part 3 of 5)

“I was the Lion”
Recently I've been re-reading C.S. Lewis' Chronicles of Narnia. They are some of my favorite books and this is probably my fourth, if not more, time reading through the series. I never tire of the stories and always seem to find new truths when I re-visit them. Last week I finished The Horse and His Boy and … Continue reading “I was the Lion”

Five Minute Friday: Limit
I'm trying something new and participating with a link up today. The challenge is to write for five minutes on a one word prompt. This was tough for me since I usually spend a lot more time writing and re-reading stuff, but it was fun too! Here's what my flying fingers were able to get … Continue reading Five Minute Friday: Limit
