Ever wonder why God blessed the Earth with prophets during bible times, but not now? I believe He still does. Come hear a prophets voice this weekend and see for yourself!

Friends
I’ve been reminded of the blessing of friends this week. I returned to teaching after a week off for spring break (Though it felt like a month) and was delighted to catch up with my students. They are so dear to me. I loved meeting Olivia’s new puppy hearing about Bill and Katie’s trip to…

Easter 2013
Happy Easter! We were fortunate to have a gorgeous Easter weekend. The weather was warm and sunny Friday and Saturday, though a bit rainy and gray Sunday. We enjoyed coloring eggs on Saturday, and enjoyed egg sandwiches, an egg hunt and a delicious Easter dinner with friends on Sunday. Tom carried on his tradition of…

Rainboots
I’m seriously considering purchasing a pair of Hunter rainboots. I bought a pair of Sperry’s two years ago, and they have a three inch crack down one side- and look terrible.

It’s been a whirlwind week for us. With the reality of our imminent move to the West coast we decided to capitilize on Tom’s time off, and our nearness to Adi and Cass and drive out and visit them one last time before we head off. We were nervous about the 20 hours of driving,…

Conversations with Scotland
I love that Scotland carries on conversations now. He also comes up with funny observations. Last week he was out visiting teaching with me. Mary started asking him a few questions. At one point she asked, “Are you a big boy?” Scotland looked at her for several moments- with his big open-eyed thinking face and…
