I become very anxious at the thought of doing something new and about 5,000 fears run through my mind, especially fears of failing. I would rather stick to one thing no matter how good or bad I am [...]

Lots of Traveling
About two weeks ago, Mark and I went to Dallas to go to two conferences for his job. We had a great time with my family and learned some pretty interesting things at the conferences. We became particulary interested in hearing about work being done among refugees in Greece. For some reason both of us [...]

Its Just a Season

Visiting the Grandparents
While Mark was out of the country, Liza and I stayed with my parents in Denton. I had a great time seeing my family and I think they really enjoyed seeing Liza. I miss getting to see them often like we did when we lived in Ft. Worth, but really they aren’t too far away. [...]

Happy Father’s Day!
I have fallen behind on posting but I figure better late than never! Mark and I both had the joy of being a mom/dad on mother’s/father’s day this year! Liza is definitely blessed with a great earthly father and an even greater Heavenly Father. Mark really enjoys holding Liza and doing fun things with her. [...]

If you are having a baby in the DFW are, you should definitely consider using Michelle for pictures! She is great!
On a side note, [...]

Liza’s birth story
I love birth stories! I love hearing how God brought new life into this world. Each story is unique and there are always challenges faced in each story. Prior to Liza’s birth, I was reading a book called Birthing from Within. It was an very interesting book (not written by a believer) that attempts to [...]
