		<title>Sorry, Not a Winner</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Don’t you love those  scratch off game pieces?  You know, the ones that always say “Sorry, Not a winner.”  Couldn’t they find a better message to print?  I mean, you’re already disappointed to find out you didn’t get the prize, but then the shame of having to read that you’re not a winner.  What does [...]]]></description>

		<title>Proof that My Daughter&#8217;s Life Mattered</title>
		<description><![CDATA[A Mother’s Day post in memory of Ashlynn God never fails in showing me His love, and I’m touched by the His unexpected gift tonight… a perfect gift on Mother’s Day. Some years,  Mother’s Day is hard for me because I’m keenly aware of Ashlynn’s absence.  This year, however, I was camping with my middle [...]]]></description>

		<title>The Ultimate Guide to Life</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Much of my time and energy is spent trying to figure out what God wants me to do.  Perhaps this sounds strange, but I’m one of those people who is always thinking and processing.  I also run a small speaking and writing ministry so I feel the need to have a plan.  There are business [...]]]></description>

		<title>Celebrating God&#8217;s Creativity</title>
		<description><![CDATA[My children don’t particularly look like siblings. While there might be a few resembling features, they don’t look like my husband or me either. Likewise, their personalities are varied and unique. Even though they’re being raised in the same household with the same parents, they’re each very different from the next. As I’ve reflected on [...]]]></description>

		<title>Peace (with no explanation but a few ramblings)</title>
		<description><![CDATA[After my daughter’s death, I wanted to preserve every thought and mention of her name.  I wanted nothing to taint my memory of her.  I wanted to live in this house forever because trees had been given to us and planted in our yard in her memory. I wanted the garden that was created with [...]]]></description>

		<title>Waiting for the Resurrection</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I feel unsettled.  It’s a gorgeous spring day, yet I’m reminded that it’s the day that bridged the crucifixion and the resurrection.  As I reflect, I try to imagine what Jesus’ friends and family must have been experiencing today.  He’d tried to assure them. Yet, they were filled with grief and anguish. Heartbroken. Devastated. Hopeless. [...]]]></description>

		<title>Embracing the Unexpected</title>
		<description><![CDATA[My son, who doesn’t particularly like to color or draw, called to me and said, “Come see what I made with my markers!” With great anticipation, I hurried down the stairs to see what masterful piece of art he’d made.  I chuckled when I rounded the corner and saw his creation.  It was indeed representative [...]]]></description>

		<title>Recalculating</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Traveling with a group is fun.  We were filled with excitement and on our way to an evening promising good times with Natalie Grant and Chonda Pierce.  I was excited to be out with a group of adult women. No kids. No husband. No responsibility. Just the girls. OK, so there was one little responsibility.  [...]]]></description>

		<title>Finding Balance</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Balance &#8211; noun; a state of equilibrium. Ah, something I long for: balance. And yet, I struggle to find it.  I struggle to find balance in my schedule, vacillating between working tirelessly and being all out lazy. I have periods of chaos that are chocked full of must-do items yet when I arrive in a [...]]]></description>

		<title>Do You Pass or Fail Loose-Leash-Walking?</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I failed the loose-leash-walking portion of doggie obedience school.  In case you’re wondering what that is, it’s when the human is able to control the walk when out with the dog and the dog demonstrates respect to his owner. The leash remains loose, not stretched and strained as the dog pulls. Not the case with [...]]]></description>
