I've tried really hard to write this week. I've stared at the blank computer screen resting my hands against the keyboard with tears in my eyes. I've felt so insecure about trying to put my thoughts out here in the open for everyone to read. So, like any vulnerable person...I held them inside because I wanted [...]
Hi everyone!! I hope you had a great week. I realize there is so much that I need to explain and so much that you want to hear regarding the MCIN announcement. I am just searching for the right way to convey what's in my heart. I will be writing more on that subject this [...]
I am so excited to present a guest post to you today from a good friend and man who Barry and I greatly respect. He is an author, teacher and has made a tremendous impact on our lives over the last two years. I read his book last year and tears hit each page as [...]

Update: The My Story Page is no longer password protected. Thanks - Jana Over the last week, I've corresponded with a number of people regarding a new page on my blog. It's titled My Story... To be perfectly honest it should be called Our Story because so many people I know can relate. I wish [...]
It was 2007 and I had just recuperated from a painful miscarriage. After almost five years of marriage, I was ready to become a mother. My arms were empty and my heart was aching. I spent months planning and preparing my body to be able to carry a child to full term. My eye was [...]
