Stitching With Disney
In Elementary School, I’m not sure which grade or how old I was I remember one specific school trip. We went to see ‘Beauty and the Beast’ in the theater up at Terre Haute. I want to say it was behind the mall, but I can’t say for certain. As a little girl the show…

Thoughts of Frustration
This afternoon they were all stomped into submission. Another weekend of being stomped on literally by bullies had been quite tiresome. This is what happens when you give them half an inch then they want to dictate to you the terms of your submission. Today though, was a good day for a practice session. It…

Grandpa & Italian Beef’s
The year after Grandpa died I began a tradition while I was at college. On days like today, I would eat something he would have enjoyed. Subway was on that list right before he died. The Chicken Teriyaki was by far his favorite from that sandwich shop. So it became a family favorite for most…

Last Sunday… Thoughts
Honestly Sunday was a wild card for me. I had no idea what was going to happen. I had heard high school students would be at church so we, the choir, would have to practice down in the basement. It’s been nearly a week so I am trying to remember everything that happened earlier that…

A Prayer …Peace
My Heavenly Gracious Father, I Thank You for those you have put into my family! Looking over the photos of my Bishop family has been a wonderful time consuming labor of love. It’s funny how I can see now as an adult the various family members and how they look so similar to each other…

My Thoughts This Very Sad Sunday
This past week had been a good week. Monday and Tuesday we said our earthly goodbye to my Great-Great Uncle Dick who had already been reunited with loved ones and who finally got to meet Christ. It was sad only because we are left behind, he no longer deals with pain or tears. We even…

Forgetful
This morning I plugged in my phone to get it a little more charged. It was just shy a few percentages of being completely full once more. I hate having it less than when I go to an appointment and don’t know how long I will be gone. So I didn’t predict this happening, but…

When you were five, what did you want to be when you grew up? Writing Prompt
Music, music, music. I couldn’t think of anything else I wanted more. Singing and playing piano was what my parents did. Dad was the Music Leader at Church and Mom played the piano. I wanted to be just like both of them. God gave me the skill and talent to do so. It was my…
