Close to Houston, but far enough out-of-town to hear the crickets and see the stars.
I have loved my Savior for over 20 years,
I have been married to my wonderful husband for over 20 years and am loving teaching and raising our 5 children here on earth, remembering the 15 we have hope to see one day in heaven.
Totally needed that! Thanks. :)
