Following His Path To Something Beautiful
By faith Abraham, when God tested him, offered Isaac as a sacrifice. He who had embraced the promises was about to sacrifice his one and only son, even though God had said to him, “It is through Isaac that your offspring will be reckoned.” Abraham reasoned that God could even raise the dead, and so [...]
Charlie wasn't listening again. It has seemed to be a huge pattern lately. So while laying in bed about to read him a book I decided to ask him what would make him a better listener. Jesus. He said. (It happened, and I have the video to proove it) Yeah, do you think you can [...]
Olivia may have mono. The thought made me sick to my stomach. I couldn’t believe I was even thinking it, let alone bringing my daughter to the doctor because of it. I thought for sure that the doctor was going to think I was crazy for even considering the thought. But the symptoms were the [...]

Tuesday night brought quite a bit of fussiness from him mixed with a lot of not listening. Bed time wasn't going well. I wanted him to put on his pajamas, [...]
This past week has been a whirl wind. I was preparing for a work trip not only in the office, but also at home. It was a week of transitioning to Mike putting Olivia down for sleep, as I usually do it, Charlie getting diagnosed early last week with a "little cold" , and pretty [...]
