Last week, I sat down at my computer and wrote a few thoughts about my life after having children. I shared my heart based on our own experiences as a family. I didn’t know the number of people those words would reach or the impact that they would have on the hearts...

I came back into the living room from hanging up clothes, and there he was, curled up in a ball covering his eyes behind our couch. His face was pressed to the carpet and his little four year old booty was up in the air. “Umm. Sweet boy, what’s wrong? What are you...

There is a picture that hangs in my parent’s living room. It is a picture of the prodigal son’s return, one of my dad’s favorite sermons. I know the story well. I know that the father of the prodigal son was thrilled, joyful, even relieved that his...
