For He satisfies the longing soul and fills the hungry soul with goodness. Psalms 107:9. MEV I have been told that I have a voracious appetite for a little person. Quite honestly, I cannot disagree. As far back as I can remember, I’ve always loved a great homemade meal — or any great meal for […]
I arrived early with mama, but I made sure to keep a ‘safe distance’ from the other children as they made their way to the spot of gathering. It was the first day of school. There they were, those familiar scrutinizing eyes, examining me from head to toe. I could feel my palms began to […]
The blaring sound of the alarm penetrated the room like an invasion from outer space.
