In the confused cacophony of a fallen world, I am a grain of sand in the cultural landscape - doing my LITTLE BITTY part in helping prevent an ocean from overwhelming the landscape.

Books, articles, on-line posts, or speeches, all inform, even as they enable and inspire, in our ability to pass them on to our neighbors. We best elevate the discourse of our culture by sharing precious truth and wisdom gleaned from God's word and work, as revealed through clever, great, or even inspired, minds.

My parents and in-laws are gone; I miss them, and always give thanks for having known them. The folks handed on to us what was most important to them, faith in Christ.

These letters are as much for the benefit of me as they are meant to be to my children because they allow me to share the most important job any woman can ever have: being a mom. Though our children continue to grow, and eventually leave the nest, a mother's heart finds itself beating wherever her children are. With these letters I hope to lovingly guide, mentor, listen, protect, and tell you stories, even though the miles keep us apart.
