George Eats Pie Crust
George Eats Pie Crust
Times tables. Â Cursive handwriting. Â Parts of speech.
These stand amongst the most memorable and usable things I learned in the third grade, but through the years, another practical tidbit from a gifted Sunday school teacher continues to rank among the top five.
George Eats Pie Crust.
G – Galatians
E – Ephesians
P – Philippians
C – Colossians
I have no idea if she developed this helpful acronym…

Took a Little Spill Ever have a messy home accident? Last week, I took my turn.  I unexpectedly landed full body weight on my knee...the impact radiated up my spine, through my head, jarring my head, causing a concussion and a TIA (mini-stroke).
Foot Rub
How often do you get a foot rub?
My sweet girls jump in every so often with their glittery lotion and keyed-up theatrics, but my dedicated husband is the one who at the very least weekly rolls up his sleeves, lathers up with green, gooey aloe vera gel, and does the dirty work.
Wonderful man, that Christian.
I once attended a funeral for a remarkable young woman named Laura Beth Wollenhaupt.  Her…

Fifteen Minutes with a Stranger
Fifteen Minutes with a Stranger
Have you ever benefitted from a seemingly negative circumstance?
I have. Â Profoundly.
As we’ve searched for a second vehicle over the past several weeks, the kids and I have relied on Uber to get us where we need to go when Christian is at work, and one afternoon when both of our cars weren’t available, I found myself in the unique position of catching a ride to an appointment alone.
The Uber…

(To read full post, please click here.)
What was your favorite thing that you did this summer?
I confess I don’t have a favorite.  There are definite highlights, but narrowing an entire season into one particular moment proves impossible for me.
One of my favorite activities without a doubt was creating the sketch above.  Every time I look back at that drawing, a peace washes over me as the image…

VBS 2018
What a blast this year’s Vacation Bible School proved to be!
Under the amazing leadership of Jackie Tapasco, our Living Word Community Church family worked together to transport over 60 children back to Ancient Babylon so that they could witness firsthand Daniel’s Courage in Captivity.
From the Broadway caliber sets, dramas, and…

The Morgan Family Extravaganza
The Morgan Family Extravaganza
My budding entrepreneurs have done it again.
Today we’re hosting The Morgan Family Extravaganza, a new and fun endeavor that includes everything from baked goods to painted bud vases.
The kids have been busy creating and planning, baking and painting, wrapping and printing over the past several weeks, and the big day has finally arrived.
I will wake them shortly.
John most likely won’t need…

Ready to Roll
My husband was in a car accident yesterday.
It could’ve been much worse.
He valiantly crosses what the locals refer to as the “GW” (George Washington Bridge) daily to run recycling plants in the Bronx.  Sometimes I forget how dangerous it can be.
Until yesterday.
A poorly placed stop sign bred the perfect storm.  Thankfully, both drivers emerged unscathed, but later Christian told me about the…

Peekin'
Peekin’
“Mommy, how did you and Daddy know I was a girl before I was born?”
I will never forget Abby Mae’s reaction after I explained that an ultrasound tech had positioned a gooey camera in just the right place to make the prediction.  Her mouth fell open with a gasp.
“You and Daddy let that lady do what?!!!”
I giggled and nodded.
Hands-on-hips, she said, “You and Daddy were peeking at my privates?”

My Grandma's House
My Grandma’s House
If my grandmother still lived, she would have turned 108 yesterday.  She would have donned her Mary Kay™ makeup and Estee Lauder™ perfume before shuffling to the kitchen for a slice of custard pie and coffee.  And she would have soon found herself all covered up with grandkids and great-grandkids wishing her a special day.
Oh, how I wish she would have.
We all miss her much but look forward to…

My Favorite Nurse
God knows well what we’ll need while walking beside Him in this life.
He wisely formed and fashioned this stunning nurse to care for both me and my family throughout our years of medical ups-and-downs. Â This one He called to serve never failed to rise above the call of duty time and time again.
Meet my mother, Judy Chase, RN.
Fifty-two years ago, an official of the Copley School of Nursing placed…

All Night Long
Have you ever wanted something so terribly that you ache inside?
The only thing a mother wants to do immediately after giving birth is hold the baby. Â She can not get that child into her arms fast enough, and once there, she can at long last gaze into the eyes of her little one.
I didn’t get to hold John for his first 22 days.  It nearly killed me.
Because John’s intestines were exposed in utero,…

Maybe by Midnight
Maybe by midnight my little one will be here,
Snuggly and warm, wailing and dear.
I’ll hold you and love you each and every day,
Close to my heart forever you’ll stay.
 Maybe by midnight you’ll fall back asleep,
Your dreams returning to counting sheep.
I’ll watch you dream under soft yellow fleece,
Your body surrendered to most perfect peace.
 Maybe by midnight your fever will break,
A day or…

Three Peas in a Pod
Three Peas in a Pod
This is a totally “mom” photo.
I had brief emotional moment at the kids’ annual physicals yesterday as the pediatrician declared them all healthy.
How incredible is that?!!!
I wanted to whoop, dance, and holler all at once but settled for a picture, one for which John was non-too-thrilled to pose.  What an amazing thing to behold, this stark examination table lined with blue bath towel and three…

Guess what?!  I want to share with you that I received the Tim Tebow Foundation (TTF)’s quarterly newsletter today.  Wondering who made the Night to Shine feature?
None other than my sweet sister, Krissie!!!
Krissie was thrilled to hear her story had been chosen.  What an honor it is to share with the world how one precious night…

Almost There
Never in a million years did I think I would make a music video.
Thanks to Bob Lockwood of Full Armour Studios and Indie Studio Space, the filming stands complete.  My wonderful husband, Christian T. Morgan, is in the midst of the editing process, putting it all together in order to produce the best snapshot into the story behind the song.
Our story.
I finished the book manuscript at the end of…

Have you ever procrastinated on something important?
That’s typically not me, but it was last week.  My topic for this post hit close to home, and I had trouble with the “going there”.
I remember the first time I left Abby for an entire weekend.  After all of the years with children in-and-out of the hospital, I’d been yearning to finally get away with “girl-friends”…
