Spring R.E.P.O.R.T

If winter is a long, cold sleep, then spring is a beautiful, magical awakening. I was starting to feel like I was also going dormant, but now that the earth is back in bloom, I think I am too. It’s the beginning of new possibilities and new life. I love how God made the seasons, each in their time, and how He takes us…

Happy Birthday, Angel of Music

You would have had 39 candles today. 21 birthdays have passed since you went home to Heaven. I'm so blessed to have been able to spend your last birthday earth side with you. Your body is still wearing the watch I bought you. It has ceased to track the passing of time, but I haven't. I wore your necklace to ke…

Begin Again | Week Four Bonus Devotion

I did a writing exercise where I wrote about when I would finally arrive "there." I made a schedule for my perfect day, complete with plenty of time to play with the kids and get all of the housework done. I wrote about how different I would be. Emotionally, I'd be calm and collected and never raise my v…

Begin Again | Week Three Bonus Devotion

If given the choice between comfort or pain, which would you choose? If comfort meant staying stuck to avoid the risk of failing, would you still cling to its familiarity? If pain meant the reward of meeting your goal and experiencing victory would you allow yourself to go through with it? I'll start with 1 Corint…

Begin Again | Week Two Bonus Devotion

Let's talk about temptation. As we are walking closer and closer to Christ, Satan likes to make sure he surrounds us with tempting forces. At times, we can help the deceiver derail us, but other times we are purely tempted against our will. Either way, God provides us a way out. Can I get an Amen!? God provides a …

Begin Again | Week One Bonus Devotion

My oldest daughter loves the movie Inside Out . She would fall asleep to this movie every single night for months when she was younger. It was the only way I could keep her in her bed. To summarize, there's Joy, Sadness, Anger, Disgust, and Fear all pulling the strings in young Riley's life from inside her hea…

Vision 2025

I sat down to (finally) put together my vision board for the year, but nothing felt authentic to me. I looked at others for inspiration, but the goals envisioned within them were too lofty for me. I'm not looking to be a girl boss or travel the world in 2025. I do want to prioritize health and wellness, but that l…

Currently... January

January came in with big blankets of snow and ice, which meant extra family time and lots of sleeping in! I got in a full 14 hours of sleep one of those cold, snowy days, and it. was. glorious. After a few days though, I thought that I was going to go crazy if our routine didn't return to normal. However, once the…
