• Christ Is Risen Indeed

  I do hope your day has been bright, beautiful and blessed, indeed. Easter Morning holds cherished moments, memories and such splendid peace that only Christians can understand. Honestly… this morning was a first for me. No Sunrise Service and hot breakfast waiting for me at church. Last year I remember eating breakfast with a mother…

• Easter Movie Night

  Timing. Timing is everything with God. From the moment I saw the previews for ‘Just In Time’ I knew it was something I wanted and maybe needed to watch. The night it debuted was Monday, but I had forgotten and missed it. I kept thinking I will watch this and each day I forgot until…

• It’s Good Friday, Again

  Today is a day for self reflection and for family conversation. Not all families get to be together today or this weekend though do they? Israeli and American hostages are still in Hamas hands. What are their thoughts today? How do they get through this weekend knowing what’s happened and how different it is from…

• Ship Container Crash

  In the early morning hours in Baltimore, Maryland a shocking event was enfolding. The Francis Scott Key Bridge is essentially gone now in the blinking of an eye. The Patpapsco River and this bridge were synonymous for nearly 50 years. This bridge is integral for commuters all around. This morning a container ship or cargo…

• What is your favorite type of weather?-Writing Prompt

  The weather has different seasons for a purpose. I love each one for their specific features. I love that the 4th of July is in the middle of Summer and I equally love that we celebrate Christ when it’s sometimes freezing with that white stuff some people loathe but I enjoy just not necessarily in…

• Life and the Internet Colliding

  Friday morning I woke up to a laptop that would not load up. I couldn’t talk to my boyfriend which in itself was horrible. Plus he was also having service provider problems himself at the same time. He got his back on yesterday I only got back on within the past hour and it is…

• Who I Am

  Four years later… and her presence and laughter are so missed in our lives. Grandma Rosie is here in the right corner with her younger sisters and the surprise younger brother that her Mom was expecting while she was expecting my Mom, her second child, herself. Then on the opposite corner is my Great-Grandmother Jeannette…

• Emotional Troubles

  The past twenty-four hours have been long and emotionally exhausting. One text message from the man I love sent me into a tizzy. Not to forget that I have been writing articles about my Grandma this week because of the leading up to today. I even made Mom tear up when she read ‘A Remembrance.’…

• A Remembrance

  Today is March 18th, by this time my Mom and Uncle Tony could only call Grandma. My cousin and her daughter tried to visit for a final goodbye, but it was a rainy day. It was frustrating to say the least for our family when they had promised us time with her knowing without Covid…
