The older I get (rather than the wiser) I believe less in coincidence and more in a divine plan.
I met an old friend for lunch yesterday. He actually hired me for my first job at Accenture. Not COINCIDENTALLY, he also hired Tim. We both graduated from the same Masters Program [...]
This post is dedicated to all of the people, families, churches, and organizations who made our combat holiday season - a great one!
Thank you all for your continued prayers, letters, postcards, care packages and tireless support of our soldiers!
Every package sent, was either; wrapped and put under our Christmas tree for soldiers to choose from, [...]
There is no gray for most people when they see me with twins. They either say in an exasperated tone , “Oh my gosh, I would not want twins.” People actually do say this. Or in a longing tone, “I always wanted twins!” None ever say, “It might be nice.”
So…I loaded [...]
I suppose I should add to my list of talents for Emerson…her ability to use a duck call and to get her eldest brother to follow her lead. Hey Tim…thanks for sending these all the way from Iraq! When there isn’t enough noise with four kids why not throw a couple of duck [...]

Please [...]

Briggs:
Did Daddy ever have any other girlfriends?
Me:
Yeah. In fact, one of them didn’t like me too much.
Briggs:
He did? Did he kiss them?
Me:
Yeah. I guess. (Me thinking…oh my…where is he going with this?)
Briggs:
But I thought you had to marry the first person that you kissed? (Side note: He just kissed Sara…his [...]
I was driving around today and felt compelled to call Tim’s voice mail. I called twice. I even left a message. I just missed being able to randomly pick up the phone to call my husband. I actually had to think about what his number was though.
It reminded me of a different time in my [...]
