Quick Notes

Yes, I know I need to be writing more.  Yes, I realize there are people who benefit from my rambly words.  I'm sorry, really, that I don't stop still often enough.  But life is very full and rich and deep and I'm only now coming to terms with this season.

Back in Milwaukee.  Teaching amazing and brilliant students.  Working with a top-notch, class act staff of educators.  Part of a church community that is totally next level.  I am floundering in blessings.

I'll be speaking tonight at a Singles group and then Tuesday evening at a Mom's group.  I really just am beginning to realize that I'm old enough, experienced, enough to have something worth sharing.  Some things that will help someone else overcome a tough season.

As I was preparing today, I realized it is the anniversary week of my dad's death.  So many miles have been walked since then. So many very hard and very good days have been lived.  I do miss him.  Truly.

In his honor, I share again the most popular piece of my writing:  Daddy's Hands.  I hope that it will encourage you to tend the bridges in your life, hold someone's hand and forgive.

Here is the link :  Daddy's Hands

If you enjoyed this piece, you might also be interested in my books, The Book of Pages About Crossing Bridges  and A Friend Named Jesus.  They can be found on Amazon.com by following these links:

Thanks for reading.
God bless!

  1. Kris, every word spoke to me. My Dad is 90 and in ICU in Monroe MI. I cannot travel. The nurse took her phone to him last night. He was lucid enough to know I was talking to him. He grabbed her hand and kept squeezing and pulling her to him. She said he thinks you are here. We've both known we will never see each other on earth but have hope of eternal life. But, to hold his hand, hear his voice..... I pray your sharing of your Dad moves kids to reach out to their Dad/Mom. Thanks God. Thanks Kris. ❤ Lynette
