Insights and Reflections from the CEO of Wichita Falls Faith Mission
I’ve learned or relearned a lot of things since the new grandbabies came. One is, you can never have enough pictures. Everything they do is photo worthy. Another thing I’ve learned is that they can’t tell you what they want. However, there is never any doubt when they want something. How can something that small [...]
