The next morning, the girls got into their little green MINI and started across the bridges toward Jutland – a more remote part of Denmark.  Once outside the city, Purity took over the driving and Bea decided to catch up on a few winks. “Where are we going today?” asked Purity. “To the Gateway of…

The next day, all three girls headed out to explore the capital of Denmark, Copenhagen. First, they visited the mermaid which every visitor has to see in Copenhagen. “Let’s go to the Hans Christian Andersen Museum,” exclaimed Prudence.  The long bored looks she received from both of her little sisters told her how uninterested they…

Once the car landed in a remote part of Holland, the two gals made their way into the city of Amsterdam and to the Anne Frank Haus (House). Bea was very excited to open the secret bookshelf which led to the Frank’s hiding place from 1942-1944. Along the corridor leading to the annex, there were…

“I’m so tired of EVERYTHING being about YOU!” screamed Bea. “Your prom, your graduation! I’m so sick of being in the background!” She had tears in her eyes as she turned away from the sink and towards her older sister. “And now I have to do all the chores around here because YOU have a…

FYI: I’m going on a trip up the coast starting on June 27th.  I won’t be in town through July 2nd.  Kris will be here though if you need anything and he’ll be watching the house and my kitty cat. I thought this might be a fun opportunity to write another adventure story.  We haven’t…

It’s Who You Are

I’m just not that competive.  I guess I believe that the only race you need to win is the race against yourself.  And if you are always striving to be better, that’s a tough enough race to win without adding others in the mix.  What matters is who you are.  Are you kind?  Can you…

You know what a pity party is?  When you are just bitter and resentful about how life is going and you are determined to tell EVERYONE about it. I have a friend that is doing this right now.  Unfortunately he’s struggling in several areas of his life: finances, relationships, health.  They are all kind of…

Change is a good thing and inevitable in the world.  Some people say you can “be apart of the change, or swept up by it.”  It’s a lot easier if YOU initiate the change as you feel more in control of the world.  But, as we all know, sometimes change happens when you cannot control…

I hope you both get to enjoy the satisfaction of going to a dealership and picking out a car that you really love. It is quite a thrill. I was going for a convertible. But after driving this British Racing Green two door hardtop with the sunroof, I fell in love.  You’ll understand when you…

I don’t know if I ever told you this, but when I was a little girl, I played the violin. I started playing in fifth or sixth grade and I played for about 2-3 years.  One summer, I even got to go to music camp. That environment was very inspiring.  But I always struggled to…
