It’s crazy for me to process that Thanksgiving is NEXT WEEK!!!!! Where has this year gone???? My heart has been all things thankful lately. Call it sappy if you want, but as my heart turns to gratefulness my spirit softens in so many ways. As we process the next several days before Thanksgiving, I wanted […]

Today is International Women’s Day. Who knew? Did you? Have you heard of this before? I’ve been a woman for 33 years and on social media for many of those years, and had NO CLUE about this day. While watching The Notebook on tv this week, I saw a commercial flick across MTV about “life

It was something impressed on my heart last Christmas to do, and every day for the last year I have been reading one piece of Scripture and writing down the “gifts” of that day. {Side note here…if you haven’t read Ann Voskamp’s “1000 Gifts” you

Woke up this morning, 2 hours early because husband has jury duty. Joy. Tiny humans went to bed 2 hours late last night because we went to dinner with friends. They’re a hot mess. Tiny humans don’t understand the beauty of sleeping in. They awoke at the crack of sunrise. On a day when there
Y’all what is it about dinner time that makes small humans go crazy? I mean straight up need a straight jacket, wild and crazy? I don’t get it. We’ve made it this far into the day safely, together, somewhat happy, we’re all still alive. All we need to do is eat something, take a bath,
