October 29, 2022Leave a comment

Sweet friend,  When you’re sitting in that doctor’s office, waiting to find out what is wrong, I know you’re scared. I wish I could come and sit down beside you, hold your hand, and reassure you that it’s going to be okay.

April 30, 2022Leave a comment

“Mama, I wish I was in eighth grade,” my sweet first-grader said to me as she sat at the kitchen counter one day after school at the beginning of the year. “Why’s that?” “Because then I would almost be done with reading,” she stated matter-of-factly. “Mama, I don’t like reading. It’s so hard.” My mama’s … Continue reading Your Child Can Do Big Things Even if School is Tough

There’s Beauty in Having Big Kids, Too

January 9, 2022Leave a comment

Our Favorite Christmas Tradition

December 18, 2021Leave a comment

Holidays can be super stressful, can’t they? When do you get together with family? Do you alternate holidays with your side and your husband’s side? Do you try to cram both sides in the same day, the same weekend, the same week? It’s exhausting! A few years ago, my husband and I started our favorite … Continue reading Our Favorite Christmas Tradition

Leave the Mess and Take the Picture

December 3, 2021Leave a comment

Mama, Take the picture, no matter what’s in the background. I was searching through old photos on the computer to find one in particular (to no avail), but the longer I looked, the more my heart filled with joy as I saw smile after smile of my kids in their childhood messes. I went past … Continue reading Leave the Mess and Take the Picture

You Don’t Need to Hide Your Past

Dear Friend, I know you are ashamed of your past. You’re ashamed of the mistakes you’ve made. You’re ashamed of the struggles you’ve dealt with. You’re ashamed of what somebody did to you.

To the mama trying to hold it all together, I see the smile you show the rest of the world.

To the woman ready to give up on her marriage, I see the tears falling down your face, and I know they feel endless. This is not a situation you ever expected to face.

Sweet child, Don’t lose your spark, your wonder, your passion.

I’m an Introverted People Person

January 3, 2021January 3, 2021Leave a comment

“I’m not a people person.” I’ve said that my entire life. I’m very much an introvert. I’m content with time alone, and that's what rejuvenates me. The thought of being with a lot of people at once is exhausting. But you know what? My husband made an astute observation recently that restructured my thinking on … Continue reading I’m an Introverted People Person
