Who
am I?
A
Christian, wife of more than 30 years and counting, shamelessly proud mother of
five, vision rehabilitation therapist, author.
I
grew up on a pig farm in central Missouri, and I’m proud of it. I
have a bachelor's degree in counseling from the University of
Missouri-Columbia and a master's in rehabilitation teaching of the
blind from the University of Arkansas at Little Rock.
In
1987, I married Murray when we’d known each other for only six
months and dated for two. After more than 30 years, we’re still praising God
for bringing us together. And did I mention I have five children?
I’ve
worked as a secretary and vision rehabilitation therapist. I am
certified from The Library of Congress as a Braille transcriber and Braille proofreader. I was a
published author as a teenager, and now after more than 30 years
of little writing, I am back to it again, one of my biggest life
dreams.
My
dream is to write Christian fiction, showing how God’s grace
continues to save us every day after we first become Christians, and
humorous stories about being blind, sometimes stumbling, but always
managing to get up. My first book, All My Tears, was published in April of 2019. You can buy it here. My most-recent book is Gifts of Grace. You can buy it here. I also have written a children's book, Millie's Christmas. You can buy it here.
What
you might see on my blog: memories of almost anything, fun happenings
with my family, articles I’ve had the privilege of publishing, old
things I’ve found from my past writing life, and continuous stories
of God’s grace.
Your blindness hasn't slowed you down a bit! I have a blog as well, and I wrote a post about Beverly Skiles and what an impact she had in my life. I included a picture of Caleb when he was little. I was not in contact with you at the time and so if you would rather I took it down, I would be happy to do that. But I thought you might enjoy the story anyway.
