About

I'm Andrea, and this is my personal blog. Thanks for being here! I usually post on Fridays and Sundays, when I share something that makes me happy or a spiritual thought for the week. Sometimes I manage to squeeze in another post or two.

Feel free to leave a comment--I'd love to hear what you have to say! You can also reach me at teachmetowalk [at] hotmail [dot] com.

The Sting of Death Is Swallowed Up



"And if Christ had not risen from the dead, or have broken the bands of death that the grave should have no victory, and that death should have no sting, there could have been no resurrection.

"But there is a resurrection, therefore the grave hath no victory, and the sting of death is swallowed up in Christ.

"He is the light and life of the world; yea, a light that is endless, that can never be darkened; yea, and also a life which is endless, that there can be no more death."

-Mosiah 16:6-8

What Kind of Heaven Is That?

(image source)
"If heaven offers no promise of being with those I love, what kind of heaven is that?...Thankfully, Jesus did not limit us to a partial gift, a half gift, a box with pretty wrapping and nothing inside."

Hey, Ladies!

...or dudes, if you want to win something for your ladies. Or...if you just like lady stuff...um...that's okay, too.


In my writing-induced haze these last few weeks, I totally forgot to mention that I'm a contributing writer at a (fairly) new blog, Motherhood Reflections. It's a fun place. On any given day, you can read posts there about breastfeeding, being a working mother, planning for more kids, deal sites, pregnancy, cold/flu remedies, birthdays...anything and everything about being a mom.

AND! We're having our first big giveaway--the prizes are:

  • A selection of Mary Kay products
  • A beautiful bird's nest necklace
  • A handmade pashmina shawl from India
  • And all the beauty products from this post
I don't know (but I'll try to remember to ask) whether there will be several different winners, or one winner for the whole haul. Either way, your odds are still pretty good. We don't have a lot of entries yet.

So...click on through! Good luck!

Happy Friday!

I'm late for Happy Friday again. I must have been partying too hard today. You know, because it's Friday. And I'm a partier. And a liar.


Anyway, I think we should move away from fart jokes for awhile. Instead, here's something that's adorable, rather than funny:

I-i-i-it's Groundhog Day!

Isaac's family has this weird awesome Groundhog Day tradition--they have a Groundhog Day party.

Isaac's aunt bakes a Groundhog Day cake:






And they watch the movie Groundhog Day. You know, the one with Bill Murray? 
To be honest, I miss going to the annual Groundhog Day party. Isaac and I are going to have a little party of our own, but it won't be the same.
By the way, if you haven't seen Groundhog Day, you should. And if you haven't seen Groundhog Day and you're a Bill Murray fan, well...I just don't know what to say to you. Here's the trailer:



Happy Groundhog Day!
