Anyone who knows me in real life can pick up on my sarcasm easily. One of my best friends even … Continue reading That Time I Got Beat Up By a Girl

Hanging Out at the Pottery Barn
Last week I went to a children's ministry conference with the children's ministry staff from my church (which is a great story in and of itself, so I'll let you know when it's posted).

We All Scream
Several years ago, I noticed something odd in my mother's neighborhood. During the summer, late in the afternoons, a strange sound would come from outside. The first time I heard the sound, I was immediately transported back to a more innocent time. A time when I was young. A time when you could chase a … Continue reading We All Scream
Nostalgia’s Still a Thing, Right?
Do you ever wish you could go back and do it all over again? It really doesn't matter when or what.
