My husband loves to quote movies. Thus, the title of this post. Can anyone tell me who said it? Or what movie it’s from? We get lots of advice from people, don’t we? Solicited, Unsolicited…it doesn’t matter, some people just like to advise. Let’s be honest, we have all been given some bad advice

A New Thing
Right? I think this is one of the most beautiful realizations we come to when we are saved by God’s grace. I don’t know about you but when God started showing me me, I realized I don’t have any time to worry about competing with other people. I’ve got some serious work to do in

Camp
I’m thinking about camp. I just picked my daughter up and it was our first time. The first time for all of us…me, my husband, and our daughter. We were all tentative and excited and scared and hopeful. I have realized that one of the best things you can do to feel alive is to
