This past week, Ridley and I traveled with my hubs to Oak Ridge, Tennessee for his work training.  It was so nice to get away for a few days. We stayed at a fabulous DoubleTree Hotel where we were treated like royalty.  Ahhh! Ridley and I explored the town which we found is full of history.  Seriously, [...]

My Child Is The Energizer Bunny

April 26, 2011

On Saturday evening, Ridley and I drove exactly one mile down the road from our house to “the farm” where my parents, Memaw and my Aunt and Uncle live.  I had to roll Memaw’s hair for church on Sunday, so my mom {Ridley calls her Yaya} played with Ridley outside. When I was done with [...]

My Friend “A”

May 26, 2010

There is a very special person that God brought into my life a few years ago.  In this post I’m calling her “A” for privacy purposes. It has just been totally on my heart to share what an inspiring person she is and what God is doing through her. When I first met A at [...]

This is the longest blog post I’ve written in months…consider yourself warned! The last two days have two of the toughest in my career as Ridley’s mommy. I have not been the trophy mom totally in control of herself. Absolutely not. When I saw him trip and fall face forward into a wooden chair and [...]
