I have lived in the south now for almost 3 years. Since then, I have heard a ton of phrases. Today’s phrase at church was “maybe your as lost as a ball in high weeds”. Some I like, like “If the horse is dead…dismount”, others I don’t get, maybe because I [...]

My family recently watched this video called Stranger Safety.
It was created by John Walsh and Julie Clark. I don’t have to tell you that a parents worst fear is a Missing Child. This video is absolutely amazing. It talks about your “don’t knows” your “kind of knows”. Your “safe side adults”. It is a video [...]
