Heartache and Hope

Your Point of View

Your Point of View

Dear Judson, I so often wonder whether you see me now, whether you see how you remain part of our daily lives and conversation, whether you see all the amazing ways you continue to touch people’s hearts, or the little things we do to honor you.  Today was especially one of those days.  I was

Thankful Thursday Week #25

Since the documentary has been on my mind all week, this Thankful Thursday reflects my gratitude for all the things surrounding the documentary. 1.   I am still in awe that Sun and Angela Kim read our story in a magazine (winter of 2008/2009) and through the prompting of the Spirit of God felt lead to

Ever So Gradually

Sunday, June 6 Whenever Jessie gets an injury or wound, I often state, “Isn’t it amazing how God made our bodies to heal?  And I bet you’ll heal really quickly, Jess.” In fact, last Saturday she fell and scraped her face pretty badly…yet, today, less than a week later, her abrasions are practically gone.

Jessie-isms: 7th Installment

1.  As we were walking out of the building of our local nature center Jessie exclaimed, “I liked the gecko inside.”  “Oh really, I didn’t see the gecko while we were in there.  Where was it?” I responded, perplexed.  “No, mama, I liked the sound of the gecko when I was talking in there!” she
