If you’ve been around my little corner of the Interwebz for the last few years, first of all— thank you! Secondly, you know my family has been through the ringer. A few times. I’m currently on my fourth job in as many years, we’ve lived in two foreign countries and learned as many languages, I’ve been diagnosed with Hashimoto’s, and …
Stepping Into the Fire
The Christian life is often one lived in the tension between promises given and promises fulfilled. We find ourselves, perhaps more than we care to admit, in circumstances which frighten and threaten to shake our faith. I’m delighted and honored to be sharing over at (in)courage today, talking about that tension. About how sometimes we have to step into the fire …
Why We Celebrate St. Patrick’s Day
I don’t think I ever really understood St. Patrick’s Day until I lived in Ireland. There was just something about being surrounded by those lilting voices, celebrating Ireland and a man who brought them hope so many years ago. (Okay, so not all of them think about the hope thing, but I can’t help but) Since our time in Ireland, …
Clarity in the Night
They come far too few and far between. Moments of stark and complete clarity. Moments when the mist thins and the things that seemed so crystal clear before, you now realize were smudged at best…completely distorted at worst. I had one such moment recently while caring for our son through a bout of croup. I’m talking about it over at …

I have since started following her blog and reading her books and, guys, I’m hooked! I’m honored to have her here today – the 100th Anniversary of the Titanic sinking – sharing about how the …
It’s All About “The Baby” {Guest Posting at The Better Mom}
When our son was born, we thought we were doing a good job of balancing our time and attention among the three children. That is until our six year old wistfully sighed one afternoon, “I wish Isaac had been born first and I had been born last.” I’m delighted to be over at The Better Mom today discussing what helped …
