I have made it an annual practice to sit down and write out a list of things I love about my husband. I think February is the perfect time of year! This list is not exhaustive or in any particular order! 1. He lets me share stories about him! And I do always share with,… [continue reading]
Will Your Expectations Kill Valentine’s Day?
Valentine’s Day is usually a big deal at our house. I have always loved Valentine’s Day–the colors, hearts, chocolate, romance. . . . What’s not to like? At the beginning of our marriage, I think my attitude was typical. Though I loved doing something special for my husband, the real excitement was: What was he… [continue reading]
The Unsubmissive Wife
It all started when we were in the process of buying our house when we were living in the Dallas area. The previous owner had long since moved out, but the tenant had left a house full of unwanted furniture and personal items. There was a plastic playscape in the front yard to one side… [continue reading]
Bloopers from Our Wedding Day
We’re celebrating 20 years married today! What better way that to remember what all went wrong on our wedding day? Ha ha.

What? You want more children?
What? You want more children? That is the question, isn’t it, for any family that has more than two or three? Some people ask it out loud and aghast while others are just pleasantly curious.

I Kissed Dating Goodbye
This time of year I see so many dating ideas going around, and I think that’s great! But yes, I kissed dating goodbye. Sound kind of funny coming from a married woman? I majored in Biblical Counseling at the small Bible college that I attended. So as a part of the program marriage was a… [continue reading]
Pitch a fit
It was me. I pitched a fit. My husband was standing behind me telling me what to do. I was trying so hard to get it right. He was making me very nervous with the things he kept calling out for me to do. Though I was trying, I just knew I’d end up with… [continue reading]
Marriage: Gotta Laugh!
While Jason was home during our Christmas/New Year vacation, he tried to get some things done around the house when we weren’t playing games. A piece of the floor had come off months before and he had thought he’d get a new one since the existing one was very scratched up, but with all the… [continue reading]
