The picture is faded because that’s what old Polaroid’s do. They place perfect memories onto imperfect paper. The paper can’t keep the images from blurring forever, but the memories can’t fade from our minds. What old Polaroid snapshots can do is stir up the memories. I call this week my dad’s birthday week.

He wasn’t conceived in the same manner, but that’s another story for another day. This advent season I am focusing … Continue reading UNTO US A CHILD IS BORN

Women empowering women
Hosted my first bible study this morning over my first book, “Through Their eyes.” Since it is Halloween, I thought, “What the heck? I’ll just get into character for the study.” I became one of the women I mentioned in the book. Reply back as to who you think I may be and with the … Continue reading Women empowering women
