It has been thirteen years since “Wellspring” and our granddaughter Rielyn were introduced into the world! Both were conceived in love, born from Love Himself. I chose the accompanying photo for this anniversary and birthday post because of its ‘stark in the dark’ beauty. Wellspring’s writings over the years have been like lilies amassed into […]
