Musings Travels Devotions ConnectFinding the Dance Within —a Morning Ritual
I’ve been thinking about things that contribute to the grace and creativity and joy of a life or family or community, that allows it to thrive, to become beautiful and uniquely its own in this time and place in the world. In my own experience, the movement—Grace,...Read MoreHaiku On A Fall Day

There's a saying about two men riding in a wagon, one looking forward and one looking back, that asks the question, 'which one are you?'. It's a good reminder to not get stuck in the past, to keep moving forward, but this morning I had to ask, where's the man in the...Read MoreOn Getting Married, Geese and Grace
I’ve just returned from Arizona. I went to surprise my niece for her Bridal Shower Reception. I love surprises. (I kind of gave it away though by posting a picture of me at the airport.) I’m home now, (in bed, actually, I caught a bug. But!) I have had time to reflect...Read MoreI Just Love Surprises!
Whenever we prepared to get on an airplane, my mom used to pray, “May God send His angels concerning you and protect you in all your ways.” Now my sister says the prayer. Little did I know, though, all the ways that prayer could be answered. I was flying to Tucson to...Read MoreMiss Fannie and Mr Sam

Wait! What if love is Food? What if love is Wine? What if love is a Lifeboat in waters too deep? As if I had been too preoccupied previously, Love spoke up. “I am the Bread of life, I am the Cup of Grace. “I have saved you in the storm. I have renewed you—mind, body...Read MoreWhat Love Is Or Isn’t
“What is love? How would you answer that?” I asked my husband on Saturday night at 8:43 PM after he’d watch a great storm roll in from the front porch with our dog while the cat was hiding. I’d no idea where the cat was but she had a mouse trapped earlier, I knew she...Read MoreWhose Story Is It?
It was just an ordinary morning filled with extraordinary little moments. That happens when I step out of myself and into the flow of the day, heart full of God’s Word, eyes and ears open, watching, listening. If there hadn’t been a lakefront full of smelly dead fish...Read MoreUnexpected Guests
Have you ever had an unexpected guest travel along side you as you take a walk—-in front, behind, above, beside and bop you on the head kind of guest? Funny Monarch.

We were at the doctor’s office because of a fall. Honestly, I thought he was having a stroke when he couldn’t touch his nose, but it was dehydration again. The doctor had called paramedics to help me get him to the hospital when all of a sudden he broke out into a...Read More “This is what I call a Master piece in every sense.

Conversations With Dad – The Book
Told with tenderness and humor, this is a love story—the love of a man for his wife and family, his love for his work and church, and the love of a daughter for her parents. It is rich with memories of her father’s life adventures and career as a noted architect.Layered with the author’s personal account of her walk with her parents as they aged, their health declined, and the eventual loss, Conversations with Dad grew out of time spent together—father and daughter—sharing the stories of those who paved the way for her.Purchase your copy today.
