For I know…

29 Jun

“‘For I know the plans I have you,’ declares…..”. Funny how when I took this to be my life verse some time in high school; I never knew how often I would try to rewrite it to say  ”declares me”.  I had my life mapped out from the time I was old enough to figure [...]

Finding my inner “girliness”

11 Feb

I am not a clothes shopper.  I wouldn’t know how to properly apply make-up even with a how-to manual.  And my hair and I have never seen eye to eye!!  BUT that is why God gives us good girlfriends.  Ones who patiently work you through the comfort zones where you have chosen to barricade yourself.

The Puzzle Gene

Where Oh Where have the Leonards gone?

Still here….plenty to write….lots to say…very little time to say (type) it. Hoping after this next weekend, things will slow down, and I can do an update as well as share pictures from our recent adventures. If anyone still checks in, “Hi!”

Just too long for a status

25 Feb
