Here is what I believe the Lord showed my husband and I about Halloween because we took the time – after years of participating –  to stop and ask Him what he actually thought about it. He is so good to always answer what is best for us when we ask. I share this learning experience…

Part of me didn’t want to post this, but I always tell my clients to celebrate where you are, and remember to look INWARD for the transformation that can happen as you set each small goal on the way to where you want to be. A year separates these photos between pregnancy and becoming a…

This is Bates and I enjoying his Easter egg hunt. And me assuming it would take “no time at all,” to pack us up for the beach weekend ahead. 🙄…LOL. Why do I do this? I’m convinced I need to plan for 4 hours at minimum next time. ⏰ During it I felt anxiety attacking…

When I was in the throws of the postpartum days, a friend graciously came over to cook us dinner and let me take a nap. I remember watching her from the couch after my C-section and being completely floored at the multi-tasking she was able to do. It was just basic (but wonderful) mom functions,…

Life is busy. Every member of the family has a schedule. I drop Bates off every day at school, and I always wonder how I made it to my desk when I get there each day. (Photo below is right before drop off – and Bates is wearing PJs because it was freezing and hardly…
