That's my prayer ~ that 24/7/365 I live life couragously and vibrantly. Knowing there are up and down days, I put my hope in the One Consistent.... I hope you find a comfortable place to land on these pages. My ramblings here are my attempt at encouraging those who come here to be all that God created them to be. In my praises and ponderings may you find peace for the journey, hope for the future, and the courage to be real. Go with God...be yourself...and thanks for stopping by!

My Dad always had one thing to say to me..."just be yourself." There were years when that was tough because who I was acting like and who I wanted to be were two different people. So I had to work through the kinks.
My Mom always had one thing to say to me, too..."God go with you."
Between the two I finally figured out that I was made to be someone in particular. Now, I'm not saying I'm 100% happy with the quirks He's given me, but I can honestly say I am courageously growing up...to be myself as God goes with me.
Thanks, Mom & Dad ~ it's the best advice I've ever gotten.

SEASON'S GREETINGS FROM OUR HOME TO YOURS!
Happy Boxing Day to all our Canadian family! As I am sitting here enjoying my coffee in bed while my puppy snuggles into my legs I couldn't help but think of ol' Clement Moore.... So, with a nod to Mr. Moore, may we send you our belated Christmas greetings from the Foskett Fam!
Twas the day after Christmas
And all through the house
not a creature was stirring
not even a mouse
the presents were opened
the tree base was bare
the stockings still hung
but nothing was there
The ham it was cooked
and the chex mix was ate
The bellies were full
and the kids stayed up late
Mom's still in her jammies
and dad's dressed and gone (for breakfast with his men's group)
Little brother's up and already outside
While the teen still sleeps, all worries aside
The peace of Christmas
still lingers and folds
The family and friends
who with loving hearts we hold
May you always have joy
May Christmas not cease
When the baby in the manger
fills your life with His peace
Because he is born
we too can be free
from the fear and the dread
This world tends to see
From our quiet home
to your humble abode
May you always know
Love for you from our hearts overflows
Merry Christmas and Happy New Year from Scott, Trayc, Caleb, Micah and Rascal Flatts Foskett!
