   The Dog Park

   If I had to guess, I’d say heaven is like the dog park. Not familiar with the dog park? It’s a vast open space where dogs and their owners can come and run free. Well, the dogs that is…the owners drink coffee and just walk... The post The Dog Park appeared first on FIRSTFRUITS.

   He’s Home

   Every party my parents ever had was a luau. Whether it was their anniversary, a neighborhood block party, or just a small group of friends over, there were always plastic leis and pineapple cups. Now just store that information away for a minute, it’s important... The post He’s Home appeared…

   Abiding

   Thank goodness for my four-legged friend, Rudy. On any given day he is the difference between the love I need and the love I receive. No offense to my husband and kids, but you moms know what I’m talking about. My dog Rudy loves me... The post Abiding appeared first on FIRSTFRUITS.

   God in the Grocery Store

   I hate grocery shopping. I hate planning meals, shopping, loading, unloading, and cooking! Get the picture? I eat to live, not live to eat. And to be honest with you, I don’t know how I managed to keep my three kids alive on the meals... The post God in the Grocery Store appeared first on...

   If I Had the Courage

   My uncle Lee was one of those people who talked about God as if he were sitting right next to him. God was his constant companion. This seemed a little strange to me at first. My idea of God was that he was up in... The post If I Had the Courage appeared first on FIRSTFRUITS.

   Chocolate Milk or White

   One of my weirdest memories from grade school was right before lunch when John the janitor would wheel in a cart with precisely counted cartons of chocolate and white milk. The chocolate ones far outnumbered the white ones. In fact, the white ones were only... The post Chocolate Milk or White...

    The Captain of Our Boat

    Barb and her daughter, Lindsey, were on a mother-daughter bonding trip over Spring Break. They went on a dolphin watching excursion. It started out lovely as they took off in the bay near Padre Island. But as the boat entered the Gulf of Mexico, things... The post The Captain of Our Boat appeared...
