I recently celebrated my 60th birthday. I have been a nurse, mostly in pediatrics since 1982. I work part time at CJW Medical Center, 12 hour nights. My husband Carl and I will be married 39 years in June. Our firstborn died at the age of 4 days. We have 2 sons, one daughter-in-law and 2 fabulous grandsons. I love to sing and sing barbershop with the Greater Richmond Chorus in addition to singing with the DBC Chancel choir. I enjoy a good cup of coffee, reading, bargain shopping, Disney, and being with my friends and family, especially my grandsons.

Follower of Jesus, married to Cam, mama to two kids through adoption. I spend my days homeschooling, writing, mentoring, making too much cold brew coffee, finding splashes of light, and overthinking things. I feel like the most forgetful Christian, so I write to remember and name the goodness of God and to unknot the places inside me that worry with doubt and hope.
