Restoration VS Relief
This is a phrase I read in my current Bible study, and it has stuck with me. And I mean, really stuck with me! I think in our fast-paced, modern lifestyle, we are more stressed than ever before. We rush…
Use Your Words…..
This is a phrase I often said to our kids when they were little. Instead of crying, stamping your feet, or grunting…..try using your words! It worked wonders for calming them down or making sense of what they were crying…
The Importance Of A Little Yellow Journal…..
I have a little yellow journal. And I cannot tell you how much I love my wee journal. I bought this journal when I knew we were going on our Sabbatical break. It wasn’t expensive and it’s not flash, but…
Where To Begin…..
Well, it’s been a little while since I have written. It’s almost a little hard to know where to start. So much has happened, so I think I’ll start with a wee update and go into detail in later blogs!…

New Year, New Me….Nah, Just Kidding!
Isn’t that how the saying goes? “New Year…..New Me” To be honest, I don’t want a new me, mostly I’m quite happy with the me that I am. Sure, there’s always room for improvement, but actually, I have worked so…
