This morning as I was driving and listening to a Christian radio station, I heard the song below, Broken Beautiful, by Ellie Holcomb.

After 15 years of driving, I am finally getting my learners permit! The hand controls were installed in the car on Tuesday and Wednesday. On Wednesday I went to the DMV to get my learners permit.

Fearless Friday

My mother has shown a lot of fortitude, grit, and fearlessness these last couple of years. My father passed away two and half years ago. My mother fell and broke her hip and had to have it replaced. She turned 90 in May. She fell and cracked the top of her tibia. And was in… Read More Fearless Friday
