One of the things I have found difficult to master since our puppy Theo came into our life is figuring out how to maintain a balance between our normal (old) life as a family of two and the new one…

Shortly after Theo turned 10 months old, we had to take another trip with him to the small animal hospital emergency department. (Click here for the first incident.) Like many accidents, it could have been avoided; but it happened…

In November/December of every year, I start to keep my eyes open, and pray, for a Scripture and word that speaks to me to help ground and guide me for the following year.
