My Sweet, Comic, Valentine – My Top Marriage Tips
I never thought I would have a man like the one I married. God definitely knew what I needed in my life. He is unlike anyone I have ever known. He and I are nothing alike. We have two things in common: Jesus and our love for each other. This man is everything I wanted…

It was Back to School Sunday at my church this weekend. We always send our kids back to school with a bang! This year our service was called “Mascots” and my pastor used live animals for illustration in the sermon. This was my favorite Back to School message yet. DISCLAIMER: I am an animal lover…
