Dear Dad, Today is Father’s Day! Each year we set this day aside to honor our fathers and tell them how much we love them. My prayer is you know how much you are loved every day. From the moment you created me you have loved me with a never ending love. I have never known anyone else that loved me so profoundly. I wonder what you thought when you first saw me. What was the one thing which stood ... Read More about A Love Letter to My Dad on Father’s Day
Happy Birthday! Happy Anniversary and Happy Father’s Day!
This week is a celebration week. It contains my dad’s birthday, my parents' anniversary and Father’s Day. I have often told my father that this is the week of the year I can honestly say costs me the most. If the truth were told, I think my dad gets ripped off when we celebrate all three in the same week. Seriously, how many cakes can one man eat? Although his preference would be to have a ...

Last week my husband and I took a trip to Sanibel Island, Florida. We love Sanibel and all of its beauty. The minute we begin to cross the 3-mile causeway from Fort Myers, I am in my happy place. I love the smell of the salt air, seeing all the boats on the beautiful blue water and watching the kite boarders skim across the bay.

Life Isn’t Always Paradise Even When You Are Staying There
Today as I write I am sitting on the lanai of a condo on Sanibel Island. Sanibel is a place many call paradise. It truly is a beautiful place with palm trees swaying in the ocean breeze, the sound of the waves hitting the shore and the magnificent variety of seashells which are scattered along the shoreline.
