Live Life in Full Bloom

It had been a particularly challenging day. Waking up with a migraine was just the beginning. I was convinced my family was dysfunctional by lunch. Can anyone else relate?? Determined to turn around the day, I stepped aside to pray and listen to praise music. Shortly after, I walked through the kitchen and my eyes […] Read more…

God Needs Us??

Needless to say, we have been playing outside a lot as the weather has been beautiful and we’ve all been stuck at home anyway. 🙂 On one such occasion, Levi fell off his bike and got slightly hurt. While I didn’t baby him, I was sympathetic. I hugged him and helped clean his “injury”. I […] Read more…

Don’t Despise the Small Beginnings

I like to work on my tan if I’m able on the weekends. Yesterday was no exception. I brought the laptop with me and headed outside. However, it was mostly cloudy. I actually like to feel the heat on my legs as it makes me think I’m really reaping the tanning effects. Because I could […] Read more…

Best Season Ever

The kids like to watch a particular cartoon series on Netflix named “Spirit”. It’s all about a girl and her horse and their many antics. They were super excited Friday night after we got home from work and school as they had realized the new episodes were just released. My kids, as I’m sure for […] Read more…

The key is to keep standing and not backing down, even when we […] Read more…

Grow Where You are Planted

My current season is interesting. I’ve been thrust back into the fast paced, stressful and chaotic world of freight forwarding. It wasn’t exactly what I would’ve chosen, yet I felt God’s hand in the circumstances leading up to my return here. So, what’s a girl to do? Learning to grow where she is planted…. I […] Read more…

Your Stamp of Authenticity

A few years ago now, we met friends in Macon and went to an outdoor shopping mall. One friend wanted to go into the Coach store in which case I thought she was incredibly brave since we had three small children between the two of us! They actually behaved pretty well and we just looked […] Read more…

When & If – Two Dangerous Traps

Yesterday, I had lunch with my friend and former colleague. We began sharing how we similarly felt uncomfortable hosting large crowds of people within our homes. And, even more accurately, how we preferred only certain people or family to join us. For me, I subconsciously tell myself, “When we have our dream house…” What I’m […] Read more…

Size Does Matter (lessons from Slither.io)

Hi ya’ll! I’m excited about this lesson. Not because it’s so earth shattering, but because of how it was inspired. I was sitting with Ayla and Levi one night last week and we had already finished dinner and were all relaxing on devices. Well, I was doing work, but it was web design so it […] Read more…
