The other night I was watching TV with my husband, Mike, and a commercial for a tooth-whitening product came on. Now, I confess, I miss the point of a lot of commercials. Often I require Mike to translate because my brain doesn’t work well with 30-second storylines. In this commercial, a stunning woman did the “tissue test”: holding up a white tissue see if her teeth are as white as they could be. ... View Post
Does Your Perspective Need an Autopsy?
I spent the last couple days in a small courtroom in a quant little town in Maryland attending the second trial of a woman accused of shaking 9-month-old Trevor Ulrich to death in 2009.

That first blog became more than just a place to seek out love and prayers; it represented a part of my life I desperately wanted to leave behind. So after three years of pouring my heart onto a blank white screen, I stopped writing ... View Post
Current Writing Projects
Faithful Soldiers dig foxholes on the front line of the battlefield to take shelter when the enemy is attacking at full force. When my four-month-old son suffered a non-accidental traumatic brain injury nearly a decade ago, I fell face-first into the dirt of my own foxhole. Curled up so tight that I could feel my own breath, I had two choices: either bury myself deeper or look up, find a sliver ... View Post
