Friday was all around [...]

It Takes A Village…Or Just a Church
A friend of mine is going through some hard times with her church – specifically her church’s nursery. While writing her a note of encouragement, I realized why it doesn’t bother me that my church got rid of the nursery.
The nursery has been gone for about a year now at church for predominantly monetary reasons. [...]

Notes From The Week
I don’t have a specific topic today, so I’m just going to list some news and notes:

Old?
How do you know you’re getting older and may actually be an *gasp* adult?
When your daily to-do list includes the following items:
re-work credit card

Speak Loud
“Everyone who listens to these words of mine and acts on them will be like a wise man who built his house on rock. The rain fell, the floods came, and the winds blew and buffeted the house. But it did not collapse; it had been set solidly on rock. And everyone who listens to [...]

Crank That
Yes, I know. I am the whitest girl alive. (though right now I’m various shades of white and red and tannish, thanks to the zoo, field day and other random outdoor activities).
