7th Month Heaven

Dearest Micah,
As I am writing this, you are currently kicking and squirming, and doing flips for all I know, the way my belly is moving!  I appreciate that you have only jabbed me a few times that have been painful, so far.  It is such a strange, but wonderful sensation, to know that you are [...]

Life in Motion

I am 22 wks today.  Time is flying by so fast, it’s incredible.  In the past five weeks we have had a 4-d u/s, finding out we are having a boy, gone home to OK for a week, Aaron was commissioned as an Elder in the United Methodist Church (I am so proud, and now [...]

Pregnant Pause

There was this moment, before I looked down at the pink stick to see one or two lines, that just paused, just a few seconds.  A moment before knowing that my whole life would change.  Then I bravely watched as the two, bright pink lines appeared so rapidly that my heart stopped and I had [...]

The Tiger Christmas Letter 2008

We bring you Christmas tidings from Central Kentucky and wish you a Happy New Year!  We are just past the halfway mark of our adventure here in the Bluegrass State and thank you, our family and friends, for your prayer and support for us over the years.  We miss everyone back home, but we have [...]

Abiding in Comfort and Joy

 
I know it has been awhile since I have written anything; a whole season has passed!  Life has been crazy, busy, overwhelming, entertaining, hopeful, and outstanding.  As I write these words through a haze of exhaustion, I find my mind settling not on those times that have been painful or a struggle, but rather, on [...]

Fall Thoughts

Haven’t had much to write about lately.  I’m actually working on a novel so any creative juices are being channeled there, or into ideas for a future event planning business.  One of my co-workers brings new decorating and cooking magazines in during the week, and there are so many ideas I want to try and [...]

A Penny’s Worth of Love

My friends’ pet passed away today.  Tov was his name.  Tov was a hedgehog, and Tov will be missed.
Kel and Leanne Penny are Tov’s parents, and they are wondeful, loving parents. 
How do I know this?  Because their love of Tov exceeds rational behavior.

Soundtrack of Life

What would define a life-changing moment for you?  If we all lived in a movie, we would have our own personal soundtrack playing as we lived our lives.  Some moments need a strong overture of instruments while others, a simple melody.  I don’t think movies would be the same without the scores that guide our [...]

Fashion Me a Break: Rachael Ray’s Scarf vs. Malkin’s Slant

I’ll admit it:  I love Rachael Ray, nonsense words and all.  She’s got a lot going for her between at least two Food Network shows, a magazine, morning talk-show, cook-ware line, Dunkin’ Donuts ads, and remaining one of the most genuine, real women out there in the Hollywood and fashion, size 2 now equals fat, [...]

Midway

It is a beautiful day in Kentucky.  Streaming sunshine, just the right amount of cool breeze, and a trip to Midway.  Add in a couple of wonderful friends, a town right out of a Mark Twain novel, and a genuine steam engine and we had one brilliant day. 
Now, I enjoy trains as much as the average [...]
