Coming!



As many of you know, I'm a big animal lover. I have three dogs and a cat, which all keep me very busy. Starting next week, I'm going to be interviewing some author friends (one a week) and their pets! I'm really excited about this! The interviews I've received so far have been tons of fun! Can't wait to share! So be sure and check back here every Wednesday for those fun interviews, which I hope will not only spotlight some of God's little critters but also some really talented authors in a whole new light.

Above, my little black puppy is Muffet. She's been gone 4 years now, and I miss her still. What a sweetheart she was! Then there's a picture of Belle watching our labradoodle puppy takeover Belle's bed.

Prayers for Belle


Belle is my sweet llasa. She was a gift to me from my husband the first year we were married. She is now 14.5 years old. But she has bladder stones. Poor baby! So she is having surgery today to remove them. Please pray that all goes well and that she heals quickly.

Did you see it?


In Marfa, everyone looks for the lights. Orbs that hover near the horizon. Scientists have not found an explanation for them. They are a mystery. And so, of course, when we traveled to Marfa, we searched for those lights. There's this little roadside stop that was built especially for searching for those Marfa lights. But alas, it was too cloudy, too hazy and we didn't see any. At first, we were disappointed. The kids were ready to see aliens. Even though none have been spotted. Where do they get their ideas? But as the weekend progressed, we were struck by the friendly people, the beauty of the area, the sheer vastness.

It made me think today about how sometimes we are searching so hard for something, trying to see it, trying to achieve it, that we miss the beauty of the landscape, the splendor of a setting sun, the majesty of the mountains in the background, the simplicity and friendliness of a genuine smile. It's good to focus but not to the exclusion of everything else in our life. So take a moment, breathe deep, look around, find something of beauty and allow God to speak to your heart.
