So, Team Pruden was up early this morning, going about our normal activities, when lo and behold, we heard the familiar "beep beep" of the "refuse collector" coming on our street! We had not put the trash out, so Aaron scrambled to get the trash out to the curb, while Moo was instructed to catch…

Wildflowers and Waiting
Have you ever been waiting on something/someone/some miracle? This summer has been a slow flower season for me...I was not able to do a lot of planting flowers and planted seeds instead....and I hate planting seeds!!! They just take too long to grow and you don't always know what you are going to get....anywho, many…
A SMILE ON MY FACE AND A GOOD ATTITUDE
Moo was a little late getting going with the walking this morning, so I started off without him...and I started thinking back to a few years ago, when we would have what I call "morning wars" - me yelling for him to get up, him not getting up, etc..., which made for some stressful mornings...Moo…
Monkey on My Back
I mean it never fails.....every morning when I wake up, that monkey IMMEDIATELY jumps on my back....the monkey of negative thoughts and "what ifs". This monkey has been my constant companion, seemingly for years. I can't tell you when he arrived, what sparked his appearance - all I can tell you is that he is…
Waiting……
I have a confession to make....I am like Jay-Z says, "I got no patience and I hate waiting..." My friends and especially Team Pruden (my husband Paul and my sons Aaron and Bryant, aka "Moo") can share with you a gazillion stories that usually end up with me yelling "Hurry up!".. I know that I…

My Flowerbeds and The Unfinished House
This is another fb post from 2011...read and be blessed.... Recently, through email and facebook, I shared with people my process of a spiritual awakening and how I likened it to an unfinished house in my neighborhood and my flowerbeds....I would like to add to those analogies with more thoughts, so bear with me:- So,…
What My Flowerbeds Have Taught Me
This is a Facebook from 2011....So, I had not been able to tend to my flower beds this year due to being busy/being sick/being lazy, so about 3 weeks ago, I decided to start the process of cleaning them out......and boy, what a mess!!! As I was cleaning them out, the thought came to me…
Where Do I Put My Hand?
In the picture above, my niece Mya was holding my husband Paul's hand as they walked from my son Aaron's football game to my mom's truck. My brother Dexter and his wife Yemi were deployed to Afghanistan at the time. They put Mya in my mother's hands/care while they were gone, trusting that she would…
I CUT THE CORD!!!!
So, last night I went to bed and I prayed, "God, please wake me up at 6, so I can walk and cut some bushes." So promptly at 6, He woke me up, and then I prayed, "God, please let me sleep one more hour." So He did, and I woke up promptly at 7....and…
