You are more that I could have ever hoped for in a son, and I hope that one day, I can grow up to be just like you!

Conny’s Constants – 24th June, 2019
It had been over 12 years since she had sung to an audience, a public crowd that could hear her distinct voice. It took all of her courage and bravery, but she did it.

Conny’s Constants – 20th June, 2019
Today I learnt that singing with friends is a pretty sweet way to spend a day. My good friend is soon having a birthday party to celebrate turning 40 and she has requested that instead of bringing her a physical gift, we all bring our giftings and talents to celebrate her. How cute is that?!? So, because she enjoys singing and she knows I like to sing too, we decided to do a song together, along with another one of...

Conny’s Constants – 18th June, 2019
The other day I made this comment on someone else’s Social Media in response to a post they did regarding Feminism and Equality. I feel like it needs to be reposted here. It’s truly what I believe about ALL social issues that are prevalent in today’s world! “Listening, really listening to others – to their stories, their experiences, where they have come from and what they believe in – is what it all boils down to, it’s what really matters....

This Gift of Community!
(Previously Published on Mrs Words Blog) As I was sitting alone in my quiet house the other day, a thought struck me that I can’t seem to shake. I have found myself telling a few people over the past few days too and I’m kind of surprising myself. The more I think on it, the more it rings true. I am really enjoying motherhood at the moment. Okay, so here’s the thing – and I’m gonna be real honest right...

For This I Was Born
(Previously Published on Mrs Words Blog) Have you even experienced a moment in time, as you are going about your business, when you hear a God-whisper telling you “This, my child. It is for this that you were born!“? Oh, how I have longed for this my whole life. I have lived to please others and to tick all the boxes. I have sought perfection with vehement effort and I have failed so miserably, so many times. I have primmed and...

Growing Independent Kids
God reminded me that my children are only mine for a period of time and that I get the privilege and joy of loving them and the angst and heartache of moulding them into becoming all that God has called them to be. I'm just borrowing them for their formative years and then they get to go out into this big wide world on their own as wonderfully unique individuals...

Who Are Your Ducks?
...there were at least six or eight ducks now congregated. They were standing there, faces turned towards the road. It was almost like they were mourning together. The community had gathered to lament and grieve the loss of one of their own.

God is so FAITHFUL!
1 Thessalonians 5:24 tells us "The one who calls you is faithful, and he will do it." God keeps His promises. He calls you and He enables you and He will provide for you. I'm living in His promise today, in this very moment and I will testify, He is faithful!
