At 30 I celebrated 4 years seizure-free.
Now at 43 I’m at 16 years without a single grand mal (since 2009).
The little blips still visit sometimes, but the monsters are gone.
Epilepsy never got to put me in a bubble, and it never will.
Why These Printables Exist (and why Misty never knew until she was 10)
For 10 years my daughter never knew I have epilepsy. This year I finally told her… and it’s the reason every printable in my shop exists. If you’re a mom carrying something quiet and still need His grace on the hard days – this corner is for you.
Thankful for Honest People and Lighter Hearts
Quiet day. Gray sky. Ordinary everything.
But somewhere in the middle I realized I feel better—steadier, lighter.
And tonight my shoot-you-straight brother is walking through the door for Thanksgiving.
Sometimes the best kind of grace shows up in honest people and a heart that’s not hurting as bad as it was.
That’s plenty to be thankful for.
This Week in Faith & Freedom: November 11, 1620
405 years ago today, 41 ordinary believers stood on a creaking ship and wrote the first rule of American life:

God Save the Thirteen States
From a British prison cell in 1780, Declaration signer Thomas Heyward Jr. didn’t curse his chains—he sang defiance: ‘God save the Thirteen States! Long rule the United States! Make us victorious, happy and glorious; No tyrants over us.’ Faith wasn’t just his comfort; it was his weapon. That’s the root of American liberty.”
Grace at the Door
Approach God’s throne boldly with your mess—grace meets you at the door. Dive into Hebrews 4:16 for mercy in everyday chaos.
🎵 Sunday Songs – In the Garden
Step into the garden alone, where dew clings to roses and the Son of God discloses His voice. Inspired by C. Austin Miles’ 1912 hymn and Matthew 6:9–13, this Sunday reflection invites you to find peace not in control, but in quiet communion with Christ—anywhere life slows enough for you to listen.
“He walks with me, and He talks with me…”
