What were your parents doing at your age?-Writing Prompt
Farming. It was our life and our livelihood. They had three kids and I wouldn’t have been quite a teenager as of yet. We as the Alsman Family were closer when we farmed. Grandpa Freddy was our rock and our foundation as a family. He kept us glued together. He prayed for us and with…

Thinking About Eve Again
Maybe it’s because I had that childlike faith growing up in a God-fearing family and church family or just because this is a story from the beginning of time in Genesis.

Since January I have been formulating ideas for not only a baby girl, but for my Preacher’s family. I didn’t get them all finished but the baby is not due for a little while which gives me a little bit of time. Some distractions didn’t allow me to finish in the time-frame I could very…

Activities or hobbies I have outgrown?-Writing Prompt
The number one idea that comes to mind is my gymnastics and all that crazy fun stuff I did as a younger girl. I could still do handstands and cartwheels as a teenager, but I think I am officially over those types of movements. They were fun and kept us limber and helped to tire…
