On Thursdays I post from the vault. This post is from August 2009. My sister, her husband, and their 15-month-old daughter have been visiting with us this week. It has been so great to have them out - it's been way too long. The last time they came out was right after I had India (when I took a road trip to Vegas with a 4-week-old. 'Cause I like to keep it classy like that). This was a much more mellow trip, although we are all a bit sleep deprived. My three kids shared a room while they . . .

Wednesday’s Child: Meet Aiden
Every Wednesday I feature a child recently highlighted by a local Wednesday's Child newscast to share the stories of children from around the country who are waiting for a family. My hope is that this can broaden exposure for the children highlighted, but also serve as a reminder that these children represent thousands of children currently in the foster-care system. Perhaps their stories will inspire you to consider opening your home to a child needing a family. For more information and to . . .
Let’s talk about the elephant in the room around churches and reopening: money
Let's talk about the elephant in the room around churches and reopening: money. Churches are struggling because people many folks only tithe in person. When the offering plate isn't passed, there isn't money to pay staff, rent, bills, etc. So churches are feeling desperate. And they aren't necessarily desperate because they are greedy. (I mean, some are.) But most churches are desperate because, like so many other businesses affected right now, they are having to make really hard decisions. Like . . .

Risk prevention | On Thursdays I post from the vault. This post is from July 2009.
On Thursdays I post from the vault. This post is from July 2009. Jafta has acquired quite the collection of costumes in the last year, and dressing up as a knight/superhero/spiderman/fireman is his favorite thing to do. I used to store his costumes in a big box on a ledge over his closet, so he had to ask me to get a costume down. The other day, he came strolling out of his room dressed as spiderman, and I was wondering how he got access to the box. This is what I found: A . . .
