It’s rainy, cold and very windy here today. Apparently there’s a tropical storm blowing over and Its giving me the feels of a snow storm in Wiscinsin and I’m being tempted to make fresh donuts to go with my coffee…and then I think of my friends. Some of them live in secure houses but few […]
“Hidden Blessings” By Michaela Smith
The tears silently slid down my heart, as a lifeless little body slid into my hands. “God please”, was the prayer that echoed quietly from my lips, as I unwrapped the tight cord three times around his neck. Surveying the little one, I simply saw no trace of life, which them prompted my next move,
