Welcome, friends!

I’ve enjoyed writing since my first diary given to me for my birthday in first grade. Fewer misspelled words, equal drama, and perhaps additional bunny trails later, I still enjoy telling a story.

A little about me:

* I’m a sucker for anything “based on a true story.”
* My favorite narration is still the classic “A Christmas Story.”
* I love any crime story and documentaries.
* My name is Sandra, but my friends call me Sandi. My childhood friends and family call me Sam and my aunt calls me Sandbox. But the name I hear the most is “Mom.”
* I am the mom of four girls and four boys here on earth. I am mom to a son William and daughter Grace in heaven.
* I’m a huge fan of fall and winter. Scene set: fireplace, fluffy socks, and a snowstorm framed in front of me.
* Because I live in Texas now, my home is filled with winter art. That plus the a/c and a few ice packs can help my mind relocate back to Colorado.
* I love Jesus and am constantly reminded of my need for Him and His great grace by my three toddlers.
* My house is usually cluttered with toys and our laundry is the real “Never Ending Story.”
* I do cry over spilt milk.
* My desire for this website is to promote hope and healing through your grief journey. I’m just a message away if you ever need a sounding board or just want to talk.
