If you’ve read my first novel, The Australian Pen Pal, you know that the main character, Rachel, stumbles on a cathedral in Sydney, Australia, and buys a rosary in the gift shop. What few people know is that Rachel’s experience is based on my own foray into a cathedral two years ago when I last traveled Down Under. (To find out why the rosary is significant, you’ll have to read the book!) After the trip, the rosary sat on my desk until this past spring when I thought it was time to…

Today I sit knowing my life will never be the same. The places I go, the people I see all remind me of you. My reality is forever changed.
I don't know how to move on or even if I really want to. I feel a tugging deep in my soul. I believe God is attempting to open doors for me and I'm afraid to go through. Without you by my…

What brings you here...I am feeling pretty good today, yesterday my daughter brought a friend over with her little boys, 2 and 3 years old. They were so sweet and wanted to eat all my tootsie pops.

I think of Mom and Dad everyday and my…

Often after a loss in my life, I find myself digging through my mental archives trying to remember conversations and experiences with the person who just died. And many times I am disappointed at how little I remember. I can’t remember the many discussions…
