Thank you so much! After this challenges we have had this year, I don't feel young. Honestly though, mylot has been a great outlet and source of inspiration. I wish I had known about this site earlier. The administrators do a good job at keeping down contention, yet still allowing people to share honestly.

That is a great way to describe yourself. I can tell that you are full of love for your family and kids. My parents are getting older and I am so afraid of what is to come for them.

It is hard to watch parents who were once strong and in control of life get feeble and sick.

The first one was a Christian Living book, specifically for those who are church leaders. I have come to find out that it was encouraging to Christians who were not leaders, but that was the original intent. The second one I wrote last year. It is fictional, but deals with the hypocrisy and revenge. It will be a series. I am working on the 2nd one now. I have to get busy because I want to have it finished next week.
