About Me

My photo
Mysteries, polka dots, California Rolls, TJ Maxx, cozy blankets, rainy days and getting the first spoonful of peanut butter out of the jar make me smile. Spiders, rude people, cold fingers and toes, baby leashes, people that don't wrap their packages before going to the Post Office, poison ivy and Math (pretty much all of it) make me want to scream. My perfect day would be spent with my wonderful husband and sweet girls- watching movies in our jammies! Of course, having the movie theater to ourselves would be great, too. Please pass the popcorn and M&M's.:) I am saved by the grace of God. He is my constant companion and hears my every prayer. What a blessing! I'd love to hear from you!

A Mile in His Shoes review and GIveaway!

Debra is the winner!  Congratulations!:)


 Last night I watched"A Mile in His Shoes" with my daughters, ages 9 and 13.  As you can see from the DVD cover, the movie is about baseball.  Oh, but there is so much more to the story.  "A Mile in His Shoes" is an inspirational movie from the director of "Angels in the Outfield". It's based on the true story of a young man, Mickey Tussler, with Asperger's Syndrome (a form of autism). Mickey has an amazing pitcher's arm and through a wonderful twist of fate, baseball coach Arthur Murphy discovers Mickey and his gift. The path to the minor league is not an easy one, though. Mickey's parents are unsure if it's the right direction for their son, a team member has malicious intentions due to jealousy and Mickey struggles with the complications of autism. "A Mile in His Shoes" will make you think, make you smile and make you cheer. Dean Cain plays the role of Coach Arthur "Murph" Murphy, an everyday hero that goes out of his way to change a young man's life and ends up also changing his own life in the process. Coach Murphy and Mickey Tussler show us that the only limitations we truly have are the ones we put on ourselves. You will be inspired! My girls and I loved it!
