I was briefly scanning over my local paper online this morning when I came across an article that sparked interest in me.  It was an article about how Minnesota students/schools are starting to lose ground to students around the nation.

Starting tonight at 6pm and ending Wednesday at 6pm, I want to challenge all of you to eat like more than half our world eats.
Our church is asking all of us to do this and I am extending it out to all of you and praying you extend it even further.
For 3 days, I ask [...]

Catchy title isn’t it?!
This morning I was laying in bed and was reading all my news reports to see what is happening in the world and I was struck with the thought, “I wonder how many people who protest really know what they are protesting”?

So, how to start?  I have been catching glimpses here and there of stories about the shooting [...]

Good Morning Everyone!
This blog is going to be short and sweet, my dad is coming over this morning to surprise the children before they go off to school so, I only have a few minutes.  By the way, have you ever noticed that you can type super fast when you are not in a hurry [...]

Good Afternoon Everyone!
I am in such a great mood today I can hardly stand it!  I got a 3 hour break from the baby today and was able to get the convertible out of the garage!  It is so nice and sunny out there with no wind that I even got warm and had to [...]
