Recently retired from home educating my three children, I thought I would have nothing to do. Ha! God had other things in mind. I am currently writing a novel, a non-fiction book, have a children’s picture book manuscript being reviewed by a publisher, all while I am learning to be the Executive Director of a non-profit organization.

My husband is the one friend I couldn’t live without. He is my biggest cheerleader, and thinks I can do no wrong. What’s not to love about that?

The members of the church I attend are the brothers and sisters I never had. They have stood by me through thick and thin for almost 25 years now. I love them with all of my heart.

My children are the best children in the world, so if you think you have the best, I am sorry, you are wrong. All three are in college. One is working full-time at our church. They are all so creative, and I’d choose them to be friends if they weren’t already my kids.

Most importantly, Christ is all in all to me. Truly He is. He is the reason that I continue to breath. He is all that matters. I am grateful to be His girl.

Lastly, I love finding the extraordinary in the ordinary and finding lessons in unexpected places. Won’t you join me on the journey? My journey toward epiphany?
