I know we’re well past the craze of New Year’s posts and lists about best blah-blah-blahs of two thousand eleven, but I’m still mediating on these unforgettable moments of the former 12 months. I’m giving myself permission. I hope you don’t mind. ;) And now, in no particular order (no seriously, these are not in any […]
The One with Our Daily Bread
For the past week my heart has been so happy, so full. My husband and I made a commitment to spend a half hour together every single morning reading our Bibles, discussing, and praying together.

The One with the Last of 2011
