Project 365 – #235 You shall love the LORD your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your might. And these words that I command you today shall be on your heart. You shall teach them diligently to your children, and shall talk of them when you sit in your house, and when you walk by the way, and when you lie down, and when you rise. ~Deuteronomy 6:5-7~ Project 365 – #236 It is often said that kids should come with parenting handbooks, but, in some ways, isn’t that just what the Bible…

Made for Me

Project 365 – #229 Growing up, I never imagined that I would be married to an active duty Marine. That wasn’t even remotely on my radar. I always thought that I’d live close to family, and that my kids would grow up with my sister’s kids. We’d have that perfect little house, and my kiddos would grow up doing activities with extended family. Becoming friends with D back in junior high would change my life (for the better) forever.
