I thought about my grandpa a lot today. He loved to work in his Oklahoma garden. I always told him that he reminded me of Elmer Fudd…forever trying to come up with some new funny trap to catch the pesty rabbits that would nibble on his plants.
I’ll carry on my grandpa’s love for gardening.
And I’ll share my love for digging in the soil with anyone who wants to dig with me.
I’m amazed at how God created the world.
So many different kinds of plants, so many different colors…
I’ll watch my garden grow.
And pray that somehow God can speak to me every time I’m in it.
If you’re ever in Grayson, come share some garden time with me.
Much love,


In December of 2007 as our youngest son, Nick, was fighting brain cancer, I began to blog. Writing provided a way for me to release all of my questions, fears, and doubts. It also allowed me to share the ups and downs of Nick's journey with people who were praying for him all over the world. When Nick went Home in November of 2008, my blog became my way of searching for God in the midst of my deep heartache. My heart was broken and grief brought to the surface every emotion imaginable. Being able to release those emotions through my writing brought a sense of purpose to my pain. Having already walked the road of grief in 1992 when we lost our daughter to SIDS, I knew I needed a way to keep from falling into a pit of depression and despair. I had walked close to the edge of a bottomless pit when we lost our daughter,and I knew I couldn't let myself get that close to the edge again. This blog has been and continues to be my tiny corner of the world where I can share My Heart as I journey through God's Word.......thus the name........ My Heart His Words. Thank you for taking time to share life with me. If we do not meet while here on earth, I look forward to hearing all about your life when we reach our final destiny.........Heaven!
