Beauty and Darkness

August 8, 2019 by Mari Posa Leave a Comment

Today we welcome a new Widow’s Voice Author to our Thursday posts! Mari – welcome to the blog, and thank you for sharing your heart with our readers!   On March 28, 2015, I met the love of my life.

Coffee with Missing Pieces

February 25, 2018 by Sarah Treanor and Mike Welker Leave a Comment

There I was, at a coffee shop downtown last Wednesday afternoon. I was sitting beside a large window enjoying the rain tapping against the glass as I did some work on my computer, when suddenly my awareness was completely shifted.

About A Girl

I’m back in Texas this week, after having visited Mike for two weeks. My last day there, we drove up to Niagara Falls to meet up with my sister and her family.
