I was Betsy. She was Becky. I was (still am) the mischievous one. She was the angel. We were toddlers snuggled in our beds. “Webekah, I won’t tell on you if you won’t tell on me,” I whispered to her across the room. It was more of a plea rather than a statement of fact.… Read More “Don’t Worry About Me, Webekah!”
Pop-pop is the perfect grandfather. Not only has he worked hard all his life providing for his family, but he has also remained faithful in his love for the Lord. His predictable patience is a constant for those around him. His unassuming nature coupled with country charm enhance his unconditional love for his grandchildren. I… Read More Prayers for Pop-pop
We’ve so enjoyed our families this month. At the beginning of August, my parents and 3 sisters stopped off in Anderson for the weekend. They traveled all over the country (literally from eastern Pennsylvania to Washington state) holding church meetings and camps. They presented their ministry here at Grace in a Sunday evening service. I… Read More Family, Family
Right now we are in Brevard, North Carolina (yes, at/near the Wilds) for David’s wedding, which is coming up tomorrow. At the moment, my brothers and I are hanging out at the church playing video games and about to go set off some fireworks. We drove down yesterday night and arrived at the Wilds about… Read More David’s Wedding
I thought I had better write about some of our autumn activities before winter sets in completely. (We did have our first accumulation of snow on the ground last night–yay!) This year’s fall season was beautiful, but short. It seems like the leaves dropped rather quickly. Back in October, while Stephen was away at the… Read More Columbus Day Caramel Apples
My little sister turned 21 today! Can you believe it? Otherwise known as Rhubarb, Bob, Rupert Murdock, Than, or Bob-o-link, Ruth Anna is a history major at BJU. Happy birthday, Ruth Anna! I’m so glad you’re my sister.
Charis had been wanting us to come up for a visit, so we decided to drive up to Plymouth on Friday night. We ended up needing to stay and finish up some things at work before leaving, but we managed to arrive at Charis’ before 10pm. Her new couch is so cute! I had seen… Read More Plymouth
415–that’s how many science museums and zoos my Uncle Tim has visited across the country. He takes three 5-week trips throughout the year to study science museums and to proofread them! He’ll take oodles of notes and spend days in a single museum. I think the longest he’s spent in one museum is 12 days.… Read More Traveling Professor
After the essential cups of coffee, Stephen and I set out for a day trip with his parents on Saturday morning. What a beautiful day! We drove up north to a rock quarry that was having an “open quarry” for its employees and the public. Stephen’s dad works for the company, Irving Materials, Inc., as… Read More Rock Quarry
Bulletin boards seem to be my lot in life this month. I drove up to Plymouth to visit Charis and helped her with her bulletin boards. I also changed GBC’s bulletin board and put up a bulletin board for Stephen and for Kevin, the teacher who is taking my place as 6th grade teacher. I’m… Read More School Days
