Hebrews 11:1
If you are a Sex in the City fan, like me, you might remember the little episode where Carrie has writer's block. She is so desperate for a story that she contemplates writing a comparison between French fries and men. That episode reminds me of where I am right now. I am deep into writer's... Continue Reading →
Nineteen years. That's how long my hubby and I have been married. I had a starry-eyed view of what my marriage would be at 25 years old. Being that 19 years is a long time, I am definitely older, but am I wiser than when I said, "I do."? Grandma: You know, when I was... Continue Reading →
I jumped ahead on Saturday to Ephesians 6...because my heart needed it. Did your heart need it too? So, let's finish out the summer Bible study finishing with Ephesians 5. This is the post I have put off writing. "As the church submits to Christ, you wives should submit to your husbands in everything." Ephesians... Continue Reading →
I remember when my husband and I first started dating. We were so infatuated with one another. We wanted to fulfill each other’s needs. We listened to one another. We spent a lot of time together connecting. But after 18 years of marriage, kids, careers, and basically, life, it has gotten harder to find time... Continue Reading →
Hubby: We got married in '93? Me: No. Hubby: '94? Me: No. I am really getting a kick out of this. It was '95. Hubby: Really? Me: Yes, really. We were married on Maui. I remember it was a Thursday. Who gets married on a Thursday? Anyway, we both have always had trouble remembering if... Continue Reading →

After much debate we finally decided on Panzano at Hotel Monaco in Downtown Denver. What I mean by "much debate" is that... Continue Reading →
My hubby and I celebrated our 16th wedding anniversary this past weekend. After 16 years it’s sometimes hard to find time for romance. Okay, with 2 kids it’s almost impossible. What says romance better than a great steak? Maybe that is just my husband’s idea of romance… After asking around, “What is the best steakhouse in Denver?”... Continue Reading →
Dear my fully grown husband, 9 (going on 29) year-old daughter, and 4 year-old-wild-child daughter, Enough is enough. I have a full-time job. I have a long commute. The last thing I want to do is come home and start a second job as a housekeeper. How is it that I leave the house in... Continue Reading →
As time goes by our lives change. We change jobs, friends, family. We even change our feelings. We are constant companions, Sharing our lives, family and love. We are incomplete as one. Alone and seldom happy. You have spent more time of your life with me than even your Mother. You've shown your love, fears... Continue Reading →
3 reasons I ♥ my husband right now. He says, "No, Honey. The meat is dried out because it was a bad cut of meat, not because you over-cooked it in the crock-pot." He refuses to go to a strip club because of his moral beliefs when he is invited to a bachelor party. He... Continue Reading →
