Life. Love. Jesus. Everything in between.

Just keeping it real bc that's the only thing I know how to do. If you are a person who cannot be happy for other people... If you are a person who simply cannot smile or clap for other people who are doing well... If you are a person who would rather see someone fall than rise... If you are a person who is busying putting people down instead of lifting them up... If you are a person who blows out other people's candles in hopes that yours will burn brighter... IT. HAS. GOT. TO. STOP. There's no sense to it. And if you call yourself a follower of Christ you better check yourself...and listen up. I heard a preacher say one time that the prodigal son came home and though his father was thrilled...the brother of the prodigal son was ticked. You heard that right.

This year my daughter will be headed for Kindergarten and my son will be in 2nd grade. My prayer their whole life has been that they would always have that kind of education that they started out with.  This year God has answered my prayer again, but this time it's my turn to step up to the plate. The beginning of the pande

Tonight was dance class night for the little girl in our household. This is the designated "I'm not cooking night" bc I will gladly take full advantage of being busy and not home at our usual dinner time.  We left dance and headed straight to our favorite pizza place to grab one to-go.  This is where I had a revelation that some people are not taking their job of social distancing to heart.  We have gone camping, got together with our families on a small scale and been out and about some during the great quarantine. We've been "smart" and used common sense when it comes to hand-washing and all that jazz. I been hand-washing when hand-washing wasn't cool, y'all. But tonight.  Let me tell you about tonight. Tonight, I walked into the pizza place and stood in line.  I noticed the door had a sign that said "no more than 4 customers at a time". Two people were in line so I went right in and kept a good distance from the man in front of me.  The
