The Gift of Three Years
I bought a blue and pink painted piece of Quartz to commemorate a very special anniversary—the three year anniversary to be exact—at my current job as a PPEC nurse. The blue and pink represents all the baby boys and girls that have touched my heart. I’ve learned a few things since working at this job.…

The Gift of Summer
The heat of summer reminds us all to do the things that refresh us. There’s nothing quite like the taste of watermelon in July or finding shade under a wide-reaching tree. We begin to look forward to the rain. These are the things that refresh our bodies but what about our souls? Always remember to…

The Gift of a Good Morning
I have a fascination with watching people’s morning routines they post online. I love to see someone romanticize their morning and make it their special time. What is it about mornings that make them so special? It’s a fresh start, a new beginning, a chance to let go of everything from the previous day that…

The Gift of an Artist Named God
As I was looking through my rock collection recently, I began to recall all the beautiful places I’ve been. Our God is many things—Father, Friend, True Love, and Artist. When I look at God’s creation in all its beauty and glory, I remember that the very same God that created it all also created me.…

The Gift of God’s Light
Last Friday, during the wee hours of the morning, I (among thousands of others) lost power due to the heavy winds of a thunderstorm. The next day, there was absolutely no light at the end of the tunnel; we couldn’t even get an estimated time of restoration. I felt the proverbial light exit right out…

The Gift of What God Gives
I recently spent the afternoon with some ducks at Strawberry Patch Park. As I fed them, I watched them each race to get the bite of food. I had plenty for them all, but they didn’t know that. Instead of slowing down to enjoy their meal, they saw the experience as a competition. It frustrated…

The Gift of My Angel
It was one of those days I just needed someone, someone who had been away for far too long—Ms. Angel, a dear coworker, a dear friend who broke her wing and had taken two months to recover. She would finally be returning by the end of that week, but Friday just couldn’t come soon enough.…

The Gift of a Heart-Shaped Rock
Today I just wanted to share a little something with you—my weird hobby. When I tell people I collect rocks, they often respond with “Rocks? What kind of rocks?” It’s not the type of rock that makes it special; it’s the place it was found in, the memories associated with it. When I take my…

The Gift of a God Thing
I saw something recently that shockingly would change the entire trajectory of my life and my heart. There before my eyes was a photo of an autism awareness tee shirt. I loved that tee, and I had to have it! This tee shirt was a very good thing for me—good message, good color, good design.…

The Gift of Seeing Magenta
It was Saturday, and I couldn’t wait to get my day started. As I made my way to the car after dropping off a nice fat check to my CPA, I stopped in my tracks when I saw a beautiful magenta plant spread out against the backdrop of a bright gray sky. How does one…
