Due to the fact that the stomach flu has been making the rounds in my house (boooo!), I'm a little behind in my writing. So the next part of the "Once Upon a Summer" series will be posted next week. My apologies for the delay. In the meantime, if you've missed any of the installments … Continue reading A Short Break

Happy Blog-iversary!
Today marks exactly one year of the blog. What a year! What a journey! As I look back over the last twelve months, I am awestruck at what God can do in such a short period of time.
