How we look forward to summer days and those beautiful trips we take! If you are like me and have a husband that is a teacher, we get so excited as summer draws closer. We love planning fun summer getaways. As the days get closer the kids get more excited. Now as a...
Fighting for Joy
Today was a really beautiful day. Like most days, there was a lot of good tinged with a little bit of sad. Playing in the blowup pool in the backyard with my kids, making them water balloons and enjoying their laughter and carefree childhood. It reminded me a moment...
Come As You Are
I just finished this long-overdue painting of my boys. Because my hands and eyes are rusty from not painting oil for a long period, this is not an easy start for me. Often times I was frustrated and discouraged. I had to repaint some areas over and over. But in the...
