Hello! Let me introduce myself.
I am the mom to four grown kids and wife to a farmer, living on the southern prairies of Canada, where the skies are large and the sunsets stunning. I am a Proverbs 31 ministries COMPEL Writers Training member and write with a desire to push back the dark, especially for those struggling with anxiety and depression. I am also an advocate for those with Down Syndrome, as our youngest child introduced us to this extraordinary new world.
I love to create, whether with my hands, working my flower beds, arranging blooms in jars, bringing new life to an old piece of furniture or stringing words together to create a picture or emotion.
When we are not busy on the farm, my husband Art and I like to camp, find a warm beach to relax with a book, or volunteer our time in Guatemala, where we help teach village kids English and learn more about Jesus!
I hope you will follow along as together we dig for JOY!
Sometimes, God gives us not what we want but what we need, and the realization comes that what we’ve been given is all we would want.
She helped me rediscover my voice, giving me the desire to shout her worth and to share valuable lessons we are learning along the way
