As a homeschooled kid, I didn’t have classmates. Well, I had Sunday school classmates, but Valentine’s Day doesn’t usually fall on a weekend, so I didn’t have anyone with whom to exchange Valentine’s Day cards or candies.

There are those days when you feel like you have your whole life together — everything is moving forward exactly as you’ve envisioned and designed, with big things on the horizon. Then there are the days when it feels like everything is falling apart, or at the very least, stagnant. The days when you just […]

Florida is called the Sunshine State, so you’d expect it to be sunny here. Every few weeks this winter though, we’ve gone through a dreary, rainy patch of weather that has lasted several days, and felt like it will last forever. After a couple days of dark gray skies and rain-slicked roads, I truly feel […]
