I’m not a fan of tiptoeing–not the physical form of the word–but in the very emotional and relational sense of the word. Sometimes in life we find ourselves in relationships that cause […]
The Art of Tiptoeing
Vickie Munton
I am passionate about my faith and my family and I blog about anything that inspires me--from scripture to do-it-yourself ideas. I love being with my family, seeing new places, photography, diy and warm weather! In everything I do and wherever I go, I long for others to see Jesus in me.
Getting a Grip (Small things can make a big difference!)
I’m not obsessing or anything, but I am loving what a difference drawer pulls and cabinet knobs can make! It’s such an easy way to update furniture, and now they’re easier than […]
Donuts and Sundays
I was buying donuts for my class this morning and chatting with the clerk about how much money I’ve spent on donuts. Her next question sent me down memory lane: “Have you […]
Weekly Photo Challenge: Good Morning!
Before I even roll out of bed in the mornings, I have made it my practice to breathe a short prayer of thanksgiving for each new day. Often just that simple prayer […]

Why wateringcanblog? In some ways it’s hard to believe, but I started this blog in May of 2012, so I figured it’s past time for me to explain why my blog is […]
Scripture Challenge: 2 SAMUEL — “Not for the Faint of Heart”
Murder, war, adultery, rape, and betrayal. Sounds like a television show… One that I wouldn’t want to watch because it would probably be rated “R”, yet here I am, reading through the […]
I Like it Better When You’re Nice
I am not even tempted to use foul language. Commonly used words that are not even considered curse words (like stupid or crap) are offensive to me, but just because I choose […]
What To Do With All That Zucchini…?
Thanks to my daughter-in-law’s sweet grandfather (who is 86 years old and keeps a GIANT garden!), I inherited this GYNORMOUS ZUCCHINI! It measured a whopping 16 inches tall, and was about 6 […]
To the One Who Stays…(a free printable!)
There are a lot of emotions that come with an empty nest. Women process it differently than men, and our emotions can cause a man to wonder what the remaining years will […]
Scripture Challenge: 1 SAMUEL — “Understanding the ‘Why?'”
Too often we hear a truth, read a truth, or experience a truth but never really let it sink in. When I say, I “need” to write, you have to understand that […]
Bring it On!
This is a post I wrote for http://contagiousjoy4him.com/ Abraham Lincoln said: “He never asked us to do something great.” (After being asked, “What did you think of the sermon, Mr. President?”) Paul said, […]
