  • My Baby Turns 2 and How to Leave a Written Legacy

    My Baby Turns 2 and How to Leave a Written Legacy

    Today my youngest baby, ME, turns two, and boy do I love her with more love than I can hold! I say youngest “baby” because I still call both my girls my babies, and I always will – at least behind their backs.

  • A Prayer You Should Be Praying for Your Daughter But Probably Aren’t

    A Prayer You Should Be Praying for Your Daughter But Probably Aren’t

    I have this friend who has something I want so badly but will never have. She has a lot of women in her life.

    My friend has a sister. She has some aunts. She still has her mom. And she even has her grandmother. Not to mention the women on her husband’s side of the family, too.

    What makes them even more of a blessing is that they all live fairly close to her, they’re all healthy, and they all spend a lot of time with her and her children.a-prayer-you-should-be-praying-over-your-daughter-1200x627

  • Who are You Leaving a Legacy?

    When I write the word “legacy”, who is the first person to come to your mind? Most likely it is your children. We are constantly in pursuit of how to leave a legacy to our children, and rightly so. Our children are who we are commissioned to in order to do just that.

    But what if there’s someone else who we should be leaving a legacy? What if there’s someone who’s not even in our family, but there, on the outside, needing someone to invest in her?

    My hunch is that there is a woman in your life who needs you to mentor and to leave a legacy.

    Today I am writing about finding this woman over at Leaving a Legacy, a blog that encourages women to leave a legacy. Will you join me there?

  • A Mother’s Legacy of Gratitude

    This time last year my mom was here at my house in North Carolina.  We were celebrating Thanksgiving all together with my parents and John’s parents.  It was the first time for John and me to host Thanksgiving.  It was a lot of work and a lot of wonderful memories.
