2019 ACFW Carol Award WinnerI was at the gas station the other day- (I feel a rabbit-trail coming on – focus Kim, focus!) After unlocking my gas cap, and preparing “Little Gracie” (that’s the name my children gave our ginormous automobile) for her “meal,” I settled in by the pump to watch the numbers soar far above where any logical human being should ever …
She Keeps Me Hoppin’
A while ago, I was about to speak to a great group of homeschoolers. Holly and I were laughing and getting to know the crowd. I told a story of one of our many adventures – while Holly was walking to the back to get me some water (she’s so awesome, if you hadn’t guessed it, yet.) Anyway, a member …
The Joy of the Lord

I haven’t added up the pages, and …
My Katie – Girl, We’ll Miss You!!

Can You Say, "Loopy"???
I’m on muscle relaxers and pain killers for some horrific pain I’ve had in my shoulders and neck. About a week ago, our incredibly powerful, custom security alarm went off — REALLY early in the morning (meaning, I was NOT awake yet, nor was anyone else!) I scrambled to get out of the bed trying to reach the control panel, …
