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! […]

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 […]
Am I Pro-Life?
This one is a bit heavy today; if anyone knows me, I absolutely detest confrontation, and am usually buttoned up about all issues political or social because I know what I believe and I simply hate to argue with anyone about it. But these thoughts were so heavy on my mind that I had to […]
Pay It Forward
Ok, reason number 4,367 that you know you’re a mom – the absolute biggest highlight of your week was finding a nice park for the kids to play so you can be outside for awhile! One of the downsides to being in an apartment with toddlers is that there is absolutely no space to play […]
Pinterest-fails
Have you guys ever seen those “Pinterest-fail” posts online? It’s so hysterically funny to see the misshapen cakes, ugly crafts and butchered home haircuts – but if we are honest, doesn’t life go that way?

This is one of those posts that is trying to get out all on its own, and I have to write it when no one else is around because the tears are probably going to stream down my face as I type. For me, writing is, and always has been cathartic, and sometimes it just […]
The Day I Self-Cared…
Blah. It feels like winter goes on forever here in the Mid-Atlantic. The sun was finally shining today, but it was still chilly for most of the day, and we aren’t out of the woods yet with this cold-ish season. I have been having a serious mom-blah spell lately of feeling like I’m stuck in […]
All Who Wander
Have you ever had a moment where the enormity of eternity just washes over you like a big, thundering, drowning wave? I have been thinking a lot about grace recently, and reading about it, and watching sermons on it. When you really stop to think about what Jesus did on the cross, as we are […]
Big news!
Hi friends! Just popping on really quickly to share my fun news with you – I’m in the process of opening an online shop for my crafty creations, yay!! This has been on my mind for a long time and I’m still working through the se- up process, but wanted to go ahead and share […]
Dear Diary
Well, everyone, this one is more of a journal entry than an actual blog post….as of last night, I had nothing earth shattering to share with you, because yesterday was just a Hard day. Yes, capital H hard. I read today in Mark 13:11 to not worry about being prepared, that the Holy Spirit will […]
