When I was growing up, there was always a domestic helper at home to help with the chores. But in the 9 years I lived abroad and the 8 years that I have been married, I have cleaned and kept my own home, and I hope to continue to do so for as long as I can. […]
I have no biological children of my own, but God has called me to Spiritual Motherhood. And into my life, thus far, he has sent quite a few young people for me to love, nurture, and lead to Him. In the process, God has taught me a lot of things about Himself, about myself, and about […]
