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…

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…
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…

I also explained…
