The Harvest Message was originally written and published in October 2017. Skyler was born on July 1, 2016. It wasContinue reading “THE HARVEST LETTER”

FOR THE LOVE OF CHILDREN
I love children; always have. Even as a child, I enjoyed it when a baby cousin accompanied an aunt or uncle visiting our home. I always thought babies had their own uniqueness; soft skin, sparkling eyes, and a sweet, fresh smell all their own. Unless they needed a diaper change! My love for children continuedContinue reading “FOR THE LOVE OF CHILDREN”
A SWEET HEAVENLY SKY
This morning, I got up before the crack of dawn, poured a cup of piping hot coffee, then turned on the news. I watched for a few minutes and realized that I didn’t want to start my day with the sadness that was being reported. So, I turned on Christmas movie, put my feet up,Continue reading “A SWEET HEAVENLY SKY”
Around Every Corner
Each day when we wake up and our feet touch the floor, we are guaranteed a brand-new start. It doesn’t matter whether it is sunny or raining, cloudy or foggy, or snowing; it is a promise from above. A new opportunity to make better choices, to help others, to love our family and friends unconditionally, toContinue reading “Around Every Corner”
A Prayer and a Nudge

My goal in writing is to make a difference. My stories develop through my faith in God,Continue reading “A Prayer and a Nudge”

A LITTLE ANGEL TOLD ME SO
I love sitting on my front porch. Whether it is reading a good book, listening to music, taking in the beautiful summer flowers, or talking to those walking by. Since I live in an old Victorian house, my porch reflects the period. In the corner of my porch, next to my glider with the floweredContinue reading “A LITTLE ANGEL TOLD ME SO”

Then, with the twists and turns that life brings, has her dream come true of having her veryContinue reading “My Special Angel, Lee Brodt”
FROM MY HEART FRIDAY
When my children were little, I enjoyed every minute with them. I loved watching them grow, witnessing their, oh so different personalities, listening to their dreams and wishes, and experiencing their loving hearts. They were kind children who grew into even more compassionate adults. They were taught at a young age to be responsible, andContinue reading “FROM MY HEART FRIDAY”
A CAN OF WORMS
When I was about nine years old, Dad asked if I wanted to go fishing. Of course, I said, “Yes!” I had been to the river, but I had never gone fishing. Dad got an empty can and off we went to dig up icky, really disgusting looking worms. I watched as Dad dug and filledContinue reading “A CAN OF WORMS”
