Karma

Karma can be one of those things we toss around. It's easy to conceptualize: you get what you deserve, you reap what you sow...and then God swoops in blows up the formula with one word, grace.  Grace is the opposite of karma.  We were created to take this gift of...

“Rocky” Moments

There are so many awards out there that gain our kiddos attention. Medals for athletics, academics… you name it, and you can probably win a trophy for it. Awards and ribbons are great. They set a goal with prizes attached and teach that to obtain the award you need...
