Just yesterday as the kids and I were getting ready for church Elizabeth was playing with an old (real) cell phone. She came to me and as she clicked it shut said, “Mommy, it was Jubilee. She said you need to come and pick her up.” I got all teary-eyed and said, “Elizabeth, let’s pray…

Dw just called. Someone who reads my blog and has connections in high places read about what is going on. They are upset about the injustice. They are “going to go to bat for us”. Please keep praying and to all of you who posted comments – thank you for caring so much! The minute…

I knew something had to be wrong….I had just talked to Dw a few minutes before and knew that he had some things he was doing (meetings, etc.) and so for him to suddenly walk thru the door was completely unexpected. When I heard the door I called, “Dw, is that you? What’s wrong?” As…

Give thanks to the LORD, for He is good; His love endures forever. Psalm 107:1 NIV This Grateful/Thankful Thursday I am soooo grateful/thankful for so many things: The privilege of helping chaperone some of our youth girls to California a couple of weeks ago…..and while there Emma & I were able to spend an afternoon…

What If My Family Isn’t Really Into “It”?

October 23, 2009 Linny Saunders99 Comments

I receive tons of emails each week (which I love getting, by the way) from many of you. With all my little cherubs I am unable to answer them all (although I often try like crazy!). Every now and then though there is a sudden recurring question in the emails and when that happens I…
