Micky and Minnie made an appearance at the Albuquerque International Balloon Fiesta this year. My youngest especially loved seeing them!

It's always crazy walking with my younger girls into the middle of the crowds to ask for collector's cards from Balloon teams, but the beauty of this event still amazes me every time. ❤️

While coaching my daughter’s middle school volleyball team this year, a conflict with one of the parents challenged me to evaluate what I really believe about Competition. Is it a good thing or not? Is it something Christians should aspire to and engage in? Does it stand in

I'm so thankful my kids have the opportunity to attend such a wonderful school! The founders of this school have worked so hard to accomplish so much in such a short period of time. They genuinely care about each student and family who comes to the school. ❤️

I'm excited to share this interview with author and publisher Laura Ranger Laura Ranger Laura Ranger is a passionate, multi-genre author who has lived in the storytelling world for over sixty years. She’s also the owner of Foundations Book Publishing Company, a traditional

It was a gorgeous evening yesterday at the church/school where my daughter's volleyball game was held. We had some time before it started so I took this picture.

"All education forms students into something!"

My kids have been thriving at Axiom! I love how this school cultivates a wonder and excitement to know more about God and the world He created.

How blessed is the man who does not walk in the counsel of the wicked, Nor stand in the path of sinners, Nor sit in the seat of scoffers! But his delight is in the law of the Lord, And in His law he meditates day and night. He will be like a tree firmly planted by streams

My 12 yo daughter has started drawing fan art of her favorite book series, Dragons in our Midst by Bryan Davis. ❤️

The morning began with a peaceful drive to school during which we watched the lightening and listened to the thunder while it gently rained. This morning, I was able to make progress on a book I've been inconsistently working on. It's been a good day. 😀

I wrote this article shortly after Charlie Kirk died as a way to process what had happened. I wasn't sure if it was something I wanted to share or simply something I'd written as a way to get my thoughts on paper. But this morning, more than a month after I wrote it, I felt like

Every single time I release a book, it feels like a piece of me has gone into the world. That is a beautiful and terrifying thing.

Good Morning, everyone 😀 I hope you have a wonderful Tuesday! It's my busiest week of the month, filled with appointments, meetings, volleyball games (we won our first game of the tournament yesterday, play again today 😀), and ending with the school's Guardian-a-thon

9 yo: Mom, can you look over my writing before I turn it in? Me: [hesitant] Umm... are you sure you want me to do that? Husband: *laughs Me: You know this is kind of what I do, and I tend to find mistakes other people miss, and there are adults who don't like it when I edit their

My 12 yo had finally read the YA book I wrote as a Ghostwriter about 10 yrs ago and wanted to read the 2nd book. However, the guy I was working for and who owns the rights to the series, dropped the ball and for some reason, never went through with publishing any more of the

Hahaha! I'm now getting marketing emails for books that aren't even mine! 😂🤦‍♀️ Jessica Scachetti, Author would you like me to forward this email that's clearly meant for you? 😇😁 She did say some really nice things about your book... 😄
