Sheryl Holmes is a daughter of the Most High King and desires to see His sparkle in her life every day. 

I am: Busy…busy…busy and is learning how to be still.

My best trait: I think outside-the-box.

My bad habit: My think-er doesn’t shut down!

Qualities I admire: Transparency and authenticity.

What I like to read: True stories that inspire are my favorite books to read – and I also like to read books that challenge my walk with Jesus.

What I write: Like Jo, from Little Women, was advised by Frederick Bhaer, “Write what you know…” – So that is what I do (!) – totally non-fiction.

What I watch: I Loooove to watch the musicals!

My family: My husband and I have nine children – yes – all ours (!) and three grandchildren.

My favorite food, snack, or beverage: I love food in general  – I love to cook & love to eat!  Fresh carrot juice is a favorite.

What I love to do: I love to create – it thrills & relaxes!

What I admire:  I admire someone who sacrifices for another; I admire my mom.

What makes me happy: Laughter among my family.

What makes me sad: I am the saddest when I see people turn away from the LORD’s best.

I believe: I believe on God’s promises because I have tasted and seen the LORD is good – over and over and over again!

Towdah: A Cancer  Survivor’s Song of Hope  was never my intent; being a published author was never on the radar for my goals in life. I was a busy homeschooling mother of nine children and I had more than enough to do. Days would run into each other and I would often lose track of them, I went from one urgent need to the other and often prayed, when will this life slow down!
