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!

Good Morning, Friends. It's December 11th - and Day 11 of my Creche Countdown! Today I'm featuring one of my recent finds at an antique/flea market in nearby Wichita. I've had it a couple weeks - one of the 'seasonal displays' people put out in their booths before a...
Creche Countdown – Day 10
This 2020 holiday season is 'different.' Much has changed and continues to change. There is no 'normal' anymore. But, different doesn't have to be bad. How we respond matters. To the best of my ability, I choose to celebrate what's 'different' in 2020. I hope you can,...
