Lately I've been thinking a lot about rest. Maybe it's because my Fall season was absolutely crazy. Like, we really only had 3 unscheduled weekends from the beginning of September to Thanksgiving. Not exaggerating. Maybe it's because we are in the middle of the holiday season and I just can't wait to get to Winter … Continue reading Resting in the Busy Season
{WOTY: Trust brings Transformation}
As I posted before, my 2018 Word of the Year (WOTY) is TRUST. I've made it a daily habit to be in God's Word every day of 2018, and as I am reading, I am asking the Lord to teach me about trust. Almost every day so far, there has been something that I have … Continue reading {WOTY: Trust brings Transformation}
{Now and Not Yet}
Hello again, friends! It's been a little quiet around here lately, and I'm sorry for that. Life in the real world has gotten very busy lately! I wonder if you also notice the seasons and cycles of life being busy and then having seasons of rest. Our Spring has been filled with track meets and … Continue reading {Now and Not Yet}
{The Sound of Sisterhood}
One evening, I was sitting on my couch doing what moms do at the end of a long day... relaxing (i.e. browsing Netflix). Suddenly laughter and silliness and Disney sing-a longs broke into my consciousness and took root in my heart. My two teenage girls just enjoying being together, being sisters, sharing the small moments … Continue reading {The Sound of Sisterhood}
{Bravery and beta readers}
Trying to get brave over here. Last summer I finished writing my first book, a cute little story about a boy named Hank and his summer adventures with his friend, Jake, all while visiting his Great-Aunt Leova and Great-Uncle Henry. Since finishing, I’ve let a couple of people read it, and have spent a good … Continue reading {Bravery and beta readers}
{Spring}
Spring is in the air. I can feel it. This last weekend, the temperature got up into the 60s, and it was glorious. The rain returned this week, but we are looking at springtime weather again this coming weekend. My heart sings, my girls sit outside on the front porch in shorts to soak up … Continue reading {Spring}

I loved it, though, and wanted to share it over here on this space, to share some of my writing, as well as a little part of me and things that are important to me. I hope you enjoy it! I've … Continue reading {Around the Kitchen Table}
41.
My birthday was earlier this month (January), which always makes me reflect on the year that has passed. Since it's the last day of the month, I thought I'd share some of my reflections on 40. 40 was a great year! It taught me a lot about myself, some stuff that was hard, and a … Continue reading 41.
{Word of the year: TRUST}
Living With Intention 2018. It's going to be an intentional year for goals. Last year, I had a few goals, and I accomplished some of them, and others I failed at miserably. This year, I have more tools to help me be intentional, but more than that, I feel like I can really do this … Continue reading {Word of the year: TRUST}
