Purposeful escape. Honest connection. Encouragement to seek God‘s truth on every path. A workout for the heart. A reason to laugh – sometimes at ourselves. Permission to enjoy the journey. And a reminder that we are never alone – Jesus takes every step with us. It’s all here.

“Though he may stumble, he will not fall,
for the Lord upholds him with His hand.”
Psalm 37:24





Welcome!

The last place I would expect to find myself is on the pages of a website. But you are here, so I know I’m exactly where God wants me to be.

I wrote my first book when I was eight. It was a whopping ten pages and was received with critical acclaim—my mother loved it! For as long as I can remember, I’ve had a pen in my hand and a passion in my heart to find words that breathe life into the wonder around me. 

My husband and I live in a red brick house on a hill. Our three children are grown with families of their own, but the home where they were raised still rings with chaos and laughter whenever we are all together. 

Like family, God created us to walk through life in the company of others. Supporting, sharpening, and affirming each other along the way.

In a world where we often struggle to find our footing, I’d love to offer you a soft place to fall, a friend to lift you up, and encouragement in God’s faithfulness as we walk together with Him.

  • Mimosa Leaves and Butter Beans: Paving a Memory Road that Leads to Home

    Yesterday, driving down a neighborhood street, I glimpsed a mimosa tree. The muscle memory of stripping the thin leaves of its drooping branches still lives in my fingers. Did you know the small leaflets look like tiny green beans when you collect them on a plate? My eight-year-old self discovered this three feet up the splendidly climbable…

  • Locked and Loaded – What To Pack for Your Family Vacation and What To Leave Behind – A Marriage Story

    “Hold on! I need to make sure I brought…” My husband stopped me before my feet hit the driveway.  “Get back in the car. I can tell you right now there’s nothing left in the house. You packed it all!”  While we said we were going to abandon the U-Haul and take a minimisist approach…
