Read Across America






We just got finished celebrating "Read Across America Week" at school. The kids loved it! We even had a little parade where the students and staff dressed up as one of their favorite characters. I was the cat from If you Give a Cat a Cupcake by Laura Joffe Numeroff. The kids giggled every time they saw me. One of my favorite kids bookstores is the Storybook Shoppe in Beaufort, SC. I am always looking for new and old books to teach guidance with at school, here are a few I used recently.

Spring





I love Spring! I can finally turn my music up and roll the windows down again. Spring also reminds me that a break is near, and after a long but enjoyable school year we can all use some time off. My favorite part is that I get to head to SC and see some of my favorite little people. I miss seeing all those t-ball games and swim meets. Just a few more weeks and I can be found...by the pool, on the boat, in the swing or hugging on the cutest kiddos in the world. Spring Break...please come soon!

I've Got a Crush on You...Baby!

Is it OK to have a crush on a house plan...or actually a few?? Well, I do...I have admired these beauties for years. Some of them are actually built in my parents neighborhood and every time I drive by I just want to run up the stairs, knock on the door and ask if I can peek inside. I have to thank my mom for this secret passion. Since I was a little girl she would always take me to look at the houses being built wherever we lived and I would imagine what should go where and pick out colors in my head. It was always fun to go check back in a few weeks to see the progress. The only bad habit I formed from this little passion, is every time I go through the grocery store I want to hit the magazine aisle and those plan books that are now sitting in my closet just beg to come home with me:) Luckily, technology has brought my secret crush to the web. Here is one of my favorites by Eric Moser...

Timeless Grace

I chose the name "Timeless Grace" for this blog because of God's gift of unmerited favor in my life over the years. I chose "timeless" because thankfully His grace is something that will never cease, it is eternal. What a peace that brings to my heart knowing I can rest in that truth. This blog will be an account of the people I love, the places I have been and hope to see and the everyday surprises of God working in my life.
