Raising Kids Who Have Compassion

May 15, 2023 by Cindi Ferrini

None of us will parent perfectly-so let’s take that pressure right off our shoulders; but we will always teach our children whether we model life indirectly (as they watch and then model us), or teach directly (“this is how we do it”). Parents all desire to teach their children important things that will make them better siblings, children, and someday adults. As parents, we wish we could share … [Read more...]

In the Waiting Room of Life

December 19, 2022 by Cindi Ferrini

Mary was in a time of waiting as she waited for Jesus to be born. Could she have known the “full picture” of what it would mean for her to carry the Christ-child?

When the Caregiver is Out of Commission

November 21, 2022 by Cindi Ferrini

Serving others for some is daily 24/7 to those with special needs; for others serving family (kids and grandkids) as needed; but what about when the caregiver can’t give care and is out of commission? That happened to me last month. I was taken by ambulance to the hospital with immobility from a back issue that has interrupted life and caregiving from time to time over 42 years. Upon dressing … [Read more...]
