Everybody is talking about Rona and you KNOW I had to join the conversation. No, but really, I get it.

Just turn on your phone and look through the news app and you will see exactly what I’m talking about. Our personal lives are no different. On the out...

Summer is FINALLY here and with that comes warm sun shiny days, laying by the pool, vacationing and more. As for me, this summer has come with the T word... transition. I have been tempted to say to God: "this again?! Can we not?!" I have heavily disliked transition because it has revealed some fears I didn't know existed. But throughout every period of transition, I have learned how to maintain my peace and not let the worry, fear, and anxiety of a new season overwhelm me. So, If you find yours...
