There are certain moments in my life that I would love to live all over again. Several childhood days stand out as good enough to relive – most of college I would relive – not a ton of high school though! One of those memories that I would love to walk just one more time […]

I’m delayed getting this up, but wanted to finish out Missions Week with this family. Dan and Sue Jenkins, along with their three children, will head to Costa Rica in the next couple of months to serve as permanent missionaries. Rather than try to sum up what they’re going to do, I’m going to let […]

This next organization is near and dear to my heart because it is founded and run by my aunt and uncle, Dusty and Corinne Cooper. I’ve already told you about the amazing heritage of my family. Starting with my grandparents, my family has a long and rich history in the Caribbean. I am proud of […]

Missions Week – Day Three: Servant’s Heart Ministry Sometimes, it seems that if you listen closely enough, you can hear the hollow strains of an orchestra in the forground. If you stop, open your eyes and strain your ear intently, you’ll hear the soft beat of a well played harmony… I can testify personally to the […]

I was a little late in getting my requests out to the people I want to feature this week so I’m still gathering the information I need for the rest of the features. I was planning on this being my last post of the week, but I’ve decided to post it today in order to […]

I’ve written about Compassion International before, and they are a large organization, so what I’m going to tell you may not be new information, but it is information that bears repeating. I love this organization. They are well run, well led and are really making a huge impact worldwide in children’s lives. I’ve been to […]

This week, I’d like to dedicate my writing energies to focus on people and organizations who are faithfully and passionately following God’s calling in their lives. Whether they are planting churches, helping children in need or simply pouring into the lives of others, these dedicated individuals are all making an eternal impact. As you read […]

August 23, 2009 by
On Friday night, we hosted our first sleepover. Sloan had two sweet friends over and they spent the evening playing Star Wars, watching Star Wars, eating S’Mores, playing UNO, and altogether wearing Lee out. In typical sleepover fashion, they hopped up on junk food and got very little sleep. But they also made sweet memories. […]

Thanks to everyone who participated in the conversation yesterday regarding vaccinations. It’s an important topic and I’m glad people are talking about it. And thanks for being so respectful of one another and of the differing opinions. It was nice to read the different perspectives without feeling any tension. You guys are great! On Wednesday, […]
[Continue reading...]On Immunizations
August 20, 2009 by
So, it’s been awhile since I discussed immunizations on my blog. Some of you will remember reading about my concerns with the current immunization schedule promoted by pediatricians, which I wrote about here, here and here (the second post is particularly lengthy as I was in the middle of my quandry on what to do). Lee […]
