Funny isn't it? How a simple comment...or lack of comment... in an everyday conversation can stick with you like sticky bread dough on the hands. There have not been too many times that I've shyly bore my insides and let someone in to know that I..I...I want to be or...

Heartbreaking mommy moment #?: "Mommy, I'm a dork." So we have a talk about words. We talk about who we most truly are. How we can believe what God says instead of what our feelings say. In the course of any given week, it is possible for me to hear many...
