My wonderful friend, Unveiled Wife, has a gorgeous and practical blog on marriage encouragement. She graciously gave my hubby and me the privilege of posting a little of our story, coupled with a bit of marriage grace and advice on her site today! I hope you will head over to…
Today on The Better Mom, I’ve written a post with my children about 5 ways we have shared our faith at school. We have a Back To School series going on over there and the articles have been fabulous so far! At dinner tonight, our family had a discussion about…
There are some things I just can’t do. At least not well. Ok, not at all. Rather than delve into all the things I can’t do or have never tried, I thought today would be a great day to salute women everywhere with a wish list of Olympic events. You…
One of the reasons I love blogging is because of all the wonderful people God crosses paths with mine. People I might not get to meet otherwise. They live in other states…or even other countries, at times. My friend, Gina, writes with me on the contributing team at RooMag. She…
This week we’ve been trying to soak up as much sun and pool time as we can. So difficult to believe that school starts back in two weeks! Aghhh! Sorry I screamed in your ear. The pool has been beckoning me; the kids have felt the call too. Taking the…

I had a wonderful weekend at the Proverbs 31 ministries She Speaks conference!! I just had to tell you that. I should also tell you that my husband is a stellar dad. And I mean STELLAR! 🙂 It’s a new busy week on the blog. Today I’m writing for the…
