October 10, 2019 Big Brother Blessings Sometimes God blesses you with an awesome gift and you totally know it! From the time I was pregnant with Thea, Lucas was totally in love with his little baby. It was “my baby.” Lots of people tried to get him to choose “new [...]
October 3, 2019 Sixteen Sweet Years The one who first called me mother is sixteen years old. Thank you, Jesus. I am so grateful for being blessed with Christina! I can’t imagine life without her. I truly understand that God entrusts us with raising his children. There is such a [...]
September 23, 2019 Questions I love how children ask questions. Sometimes their questions make you go search something. Like “what is a rainbow?” or “why are leaves green?” Sometimes their questions mirror your own; but those you won’t speak. You know, questions that your doubting mind asks but your thinking [...]
September 21, 2019 Thea’s First Roller Coaster There’s this wonderful place a few dozen miles over the Georgia line that pops up out of the long fields of cotton and orchards of pecan trees with vibrant colors, exotic animals, and fun! Wild Adventures. This place has a great history for [...]

July 6, 2019 Fireworks and Family We have only missed one “Fireworks Over the Matanzas” in all of Christina’s 15 years. We were at Wild Adventures park in Valdosta and Christina wasn’t even one year old. Every year we go downtown. Louis monitors the weather so we’ve avoided being soaked [...]
