Alzheimer’s and Marriage
I have wanted to write a post like this for some time now, but it very personal. I just wasn’t sure if this is something I wanted to put out there. But it’s Alzheimer’s, it’s this disease and it’s what I work through every morning when I wake up for school and leave Curt sound …

Silent Night
When I was a kid my all time favorite Christmas carol was, “Silent Night.” I loved the magic of singing it on Christmas Eve as I carefully lifted my just lit candle during the Christmas Eve candlelight service. But as I grew up, I realized I cherished the “moment”, but had really never “listened” to …

I recently reset my alarm clock to 5:30am. The reason, I wanted to hit the snooze 3 times instead of 2 before I get up. Tell me that makes a lot of sense. But that is my mentality these days! Every school morning for the last 5 month I feel as if I am stuck …

Dead Trees and Life
We had a very dead tree come LOUDLY crashing down in our woods this past week. It was a ways down in the woods by our creek, so it really did not damage much…….thus it was quite fascinating to look at. And let me tell you, I don’t even know how this tree remained standing …
