I had such a vivid example of childlike faith last week. I was in the car with my curly girl, and we were on a little roadtrip on our day off. On the way back, it was beyond naptime, so she dozed off in her carseat in about 30 seconds. (I remember car naps being […]

Soaking It In
I don’t really tend to read hype-you-up, trendy self help books but now in my old age, my 30’s, I have learned to read the books that offer Christian wisdom based on experience or revelation. I always thought nonfiction, “be better” books were boring, fusty-dusty sleepy reads until I got to a point in my […]
Rainbows
She’s squealing with delight, running to get me to tell me about the rainbows on the floor – darting into her room next door and then back out into the living room to find them all. She’s mesmerized by the tiny squares of rainbow scattered across the carpet as the morning sun catches the prisms […]
Go Time!
Hey y’all, I’m back! Happy October! If you missed it, I wrote last month that I was going to take the month of September off to have a little end of summer sabbatical to rest, seek God and spend time with my family. I am so excited to be back, but I LOVED taking a […]
Out of the Mouths of Babes
So the kids are a little over 2 now and are super proud of all they have learned…among their repertoire, they can sing “Jesus Loves Me” on their own and often do, at the top of their lungs, no matter where we happen to be – Walmart, park, pool, it makes zero difference to them! […]
Jesus30
Hey everyone! Happy Friday to you, wherever you are 😊 If you read my recipe post on Tuesday, you read that I just finished my fourth round of the Whole30 challenge! Woot! (and there was much rejoicing!) Actually, if I’m being quite honest, this one wasn’t that hard because I had been keeping most of […]
Shower Curtain Days
Hello there lovelies! Today I wanted to talk to you about a phenomenon in my life that I like to call “Shower Curtain Days”. Now, they are something special, and I’m sure they happen to you, just under another name in your world. These are the days that you are waking up tired, maybe a […]
As Good As Dead
I was reading the what people call the “Faith Hall of Fame” passage in Hebrews the other day – if you haven’t read it recently, check it out here. (Noticing lots of “faith” themes in my posts recently?! These days I’m learning all about not knowing but believing and going just the same!) The whole […]
Through the Fire
Have you ever had a great spiritual truth whack you across the face…like while you’re reading your kids’ books or watching their shows? That happened to me a few times this week as I was reading the kids their stories from the children’s Bible, and doing our Bible story on the YouVersion Bible app. And […]
Complacency
Today you get the product of my thoughts while I was pushing baby girl on our hot sticky morning run the other day when I was off work. Our MORNING. RUN. Now, if you know me at all, you know that I am NOT a morning person, and I am NOT a runner….and yet, here […]
