In honor of Halloween, I thought I’d share some things that terrified me as a child (some still do). I know you might think they’re silly, but the fear was very real for me…
At some point during my younger years, someone told me the story of the ‘Lady and the Skinny Toe’. The [...]

Many (I mean many) years ago, I knew a young girl who was an only child. She was being brought up with plenty of love, and a whole lot of freedom to express herself. Her parents were very young, and she thought her life was perfect exactly how it was (why would she [...]

My son just got a Transformers mask that he plans to wear on Halloween. When he first tried it on, I was amazed at how much it covered up. I couldn’t tell if he was smiling, angry, or sticking his tongue out at me. (Not that he’d EVER do such a thing!)

I’ve been experiencing an enormous sense of burden. There are many reasons for this, but I realize that I have a choice to make… I can continue to let these situations weigh me down, or I can stop and remember that I’m not alone.

With Halloween just around the corner, I felt the need to repost this story. This was a huge event that we still have ‘nightmares’ about on a continual basis in our home…
There is a new video at the bottom that we now love… but don’t know who he is or what it means!
My Fun [...]

This past April I signed up on Twitter. I wasn’t sure how I felt about this new venture, and it took me a while to stop ‘lurking’ and start ‘engaging’. As I began to meet new people, I came across @katdish who quickly became my Twitter Idol. She seemed to have just [...]

Two weeks ago my friend and fellow blogger, Peter Pollock, hosted a blog carnival (thanks Peter, you did an awesome job). Those of us who were part of that carnival wrote about ‘Obedience’. It was a huge success… there were over 20 posts, all from very different and unique perspectives. Many [...]

Do you have times where you feel you don’t measure up? There might be issues a) in the relationship with your spouse b) with the kids c) with your work. What about when it’s d) ALL of the above?
Sometimes I think the ghosts of our past come back to haunt us and make us [...]

So as most of you know, the theme on my blog is… One Word at a Time. I’ve begun to make Fun Friday fit into this ’structure’ as well, by making the titles consist of only ‘one word’. So, this week I thought I’d pick a word above all others…songs have been written [...]
