June 2021~From the Heart Blog by Kim Wigginton I remember with a smile one evening when our preschool daughters were playing with their box of "dress up clothes." They excitedly walked into our family room for the first (of many) times donning white dresses and fancy "too big" shoes. Each had a white bath towel [...]
We frequently hear folks compare life to a marathon. Fair enough. Good analogy. But as a sports mom I'd like to expand that word picture to suggest that life is more like a track meet (a kind of marathon, right?)

Who would have thought that one of our "don’t leave home without it" items in 2020 would become a face mask? What used to be our car keys or our cell phone is now a face covering too. Now, be warned, this blog is NOT intended to be a politically charged debate regarding the validity [...]
This month's Heart of Womanhood Blog really hits home. Discord within our families, our churches, our hometowns (especially ours in Louisville, Kentucky), our nation, and our world can leave our homes and hearts feeling hopelessly splintered by racial tensions, pandemic pressures, and political divisions. But this sister in the Lord has been ONE who has [...]
This past month The Wigs had a ton of power stored in our house! Yep. Thanks to a few FCA coaching families who run a firework stand each summer, our neighborhood gang enjoys a spectacular display after dark every 4th of July!
