I overslept this morning!!! I think my body knows that Fall is coming and is starting to rebel. Anyway, I only argued with myself a couple of seconds and jumped up and called out to Moo so we could get some kind of walking in before work. I explained to him that because it was…

While I Have My Being
I just read a scripture that was powerful to me and I wanted to share: Psalm 146:2 - I will praise the Lord while I live. I will sing praise to to my God while I have my being... The last part of that scripture, "while I have my being," really screamed at me. The…
Brillo Pad
So, I just finished cleaning my shower. I truly hate doing it, I mean I hate it, just about as much as Moo hates cleaning his room and hanging his clothes up. I looked at the shower floor and realized I needed some heavy duty help in cleaning it, but what did I have? I…
Stop, Look, and Listen
As is my custom on Sunday, I was ironing the boy's clothes this morning, in the quiet of the day. I began to think about this time that I spend of Sunday and how it has become special to me. It is a time when there is no sound, nobody calling my name, or looking…
Gratitude in All Things
I was texting a friend this morning and at the end of the text, I wrote, "I am learning to be grateful in all things." And it hit me: this is yet another lesson that God has been trying to teach me. Instead of trying to control the outcome of my environment and then having…
The Small Things
I really struggled to get out of bed this morning. I mean, really struggled. I laid in bed and argued with myself - that's how bad I didn't want to get up. But I pushed myself and Moo to get up and get out the door. And the minute I walked outside, I immediately smiled.…
Comfort Food
This summer has been a slow one for Team Pruden. We normally "eat, sleep, and run the road". That's what my mom said Paul and I used to do when we were teenagers - and it didn't stop when we got married and had kids. I think back to when I had Moo at the…
My “Apple whatevers”
Head of Household
Work Break Note - I can only speak for myself when I say that I would not want to be the head of a household...now before anyone gets their panties in a bunch - I am speaking as I know it, lived it, and live it now, first with the infamous James Holley, and now…
For Our Good
Before Moo and I set out to walk this morning, his father informed him that he would be moving up to the next age group in football. And contrary to what I normally do, I decided not to say anything to Moo about it while we were walking. I wanted him to process his feelings…
