Does the word “courage” scare you or excite you to try something new? For me, it sparks the desire to be brave and step into something different. Courage isn’t just a word; it’s a powerful tool that leads to confidence—something we all long for. How often do we say, “If only I had more confidence”? […]

In today’s fast-paced world, we often feel the pressure to stay busy, accomplish more, and always be on the go. But over the past few months, I’ve been learning about the power of being still. It’s a lesson that kept coming up in my devotions and through reading the Bible: God is calling us to […]

Hey there, mama! Today’s post is a bit different. I asked my husband, Jim, to share his perspective on what happened when life threw us a curveball and how the systems I’ve put in place made all the difference. Now, to say he was thrilled to write this would be a bit of an exaggeration, […]

As busy moms, our days are filled with responsibilities, from taking care of our children and hubby to managing household tasks and perhaps even balancing a career. With so much on our plate, it’s easy to overlook our own needs. However, prioritizing self-care is crucial—not only for our well-being but also for the well-being of […]

We got back from vacation and Jimmy was really excited to start the new position on Monday. I was excited to get back to work, because God had given me some clarity and some really good ideas, while we were away.    Kids had a doctor’s appointment that Monday morning and we went grocery shopping […]

I always say God has a funny way of working. Over a week ago I posted a blog about changes. How change can be good and hard, because Jimmy and I have gone through a lot of change in the last 11 months.    What I didn’t know was later that day after I posted […]

Our goal at the beginning of this year was to go on more dates. As parents that is not always easy, but it is necessary. Those dates are important to keep you connected as a married couple. With Jimmy’s schedule we do a date day or a lunch date a few times a month. However […]

So I have a question for you…one I want you to really think about. How are you doing? I mean how are you really doing? Are you afraid to be really honest answering that question? Afraid people might judge you? Afraid to admit the truth?   I get it!! I was there, not too long […]

Happy Birthday to Me!! I can’t believe I am 50?!?! Like I am not that old, there is no way. Like I’m in complete shock I’m turning 50. I don’t feel 50 at all. If I am honest, turning 50 is easier for me than turning 40. Turning 40 was so tough for me and […]

I am the type of person that loves to have plans or have my days planned out. I plan my days from morning to night, however I do not jam pack my days. Most of my days are usually full from 9ish to 2pm. I like to take advantage of that time and be productive, […]

I was having a conversation with Jimmy today and it really spoke to me. He said he was worried about me, our family and some other things. It made me think, can we stop worrying?  I think it is hard to stop, but I think we can. What can we do to help stop worrying? […]

 To me Fall means harvesting and changing. Change is inevitable. However it also means a season of thankfulness.    As I think about this, I can’t help but think how God has worked in my life these past couple weeks. I have cried a lot of tears. I am talking tears of sadness, tears of […]
