source Pin It A sweet friend replied to my text with these words of wisdom. We have a choice. We can either try to feast on crumbs in the dark corner or come out into His light and have a seat at the feast by abandoning ourselves and trusting HIM!!! Crumbs or a feast. Darkness or light. Us or Him. It is our daily ...

First Trip to the Dentist
source Pin It A repost from four years ago (March 2009). Bubs has been to the dentist three times. The experiences were: okay, horrible, amazing. In that order.

Do You Like Raw Eggs?
Pin It Sometimes I wonder, "What did I do to deserve this?" or "Why did God do this to me?" In my own little pity party, I get frustrated with my failed expectations.

(I'm serious!) And because biking is such a huge part of our lives, we enjoy family bike rides. With Peanut in ...
Where Are You Looking?
source Pin It I just finished writing a long note to Bubs' therapist. We are between a rock and a hard spot believing that there is more to Bubs' disability but not sure where to turn for answers. The social and anxiety issues appear to be intensifying. He struggles more and more to find the words he needs to explain his thoughts. We ...
Review: God, I Need to Talk to You About…
