Coffee Conversations with a Purple Girl
Year End Review 2016 Welcome dear friends, to my annual review! It has been my tradition for several years now to have a look back at the year which is ending before looking forward to the year to come. As I look back at the year that I’ve had, I encourage you to also look […]
Today I am thankful for my house. I know, it’s not really my house, but I am thankful for the house that we get to live in via paying someone else to live here. I am so thankful for God’s providence in bringing us here and all the things that went into our getting this […]
