Invited Back



“I have also long held the belief that one's tears are a guide, that when something makes you cry, it means something. If we pay attention to our tears, they'll show us something about ourselves.”

Morning Manifesto

Sometimes in this world there are songs that go right to your heart. 
Atlantic ocean after the storm - Holden Beach, North Carolina
Straight to you, past everything....all sounds and voices and distractions, and right to the place you needed to be tended.  I think that God does that to remind you of Himself and that you are, as a beloved person that He has made, being seen and talked to in your day.

Year 8 Begins


It's the first day of school. 
(!!!!!)

I am 8 years into the life of this profession, and I am happy to say that while I still picked out very carefully what I will wear, there is no longer a pit inside my stomach on these days.  I feel happy to be Miss Christians again.  I feel excited to meet 186 people again and welcome them to my class.
