I’m a follower of Jesus Christ, a choreographer of dancing words, a challenger of the status quo, an admirer of all things colorful, and a lover of life who finds great comfort and joy in knowing I’m completely adequate to do whatever it is God calls me to do! I’m a wife to one, mom to two, grandma to five, and I live in the middle of the United States of America with my husband, and a cat named Mufasa who believes he owns our home!
My hope is you’ll find inspiration, encouragement, truth, and even a bit of humor in my words penned in this blog!

Generational Storytelling: The Workshop!
As I write this, the sunshine outside my office window is beckoning. "Come...come enjoy my warmth," it seems to say. With the Kansas weather being so ever-changing, it is indeed tempting, but I will pause first and write a note. It's been a busy month here. I've been...
