Sharing real life as a young mamma just wanting to do it differently. A whole lot of grace and a little bit of lace.
With the issue of abortion being so prevalent right now I wanted to share a story that is very significant to me. About 25 years ago a mother I look up to now, was pregnant with her second born. She started out her pregnancy like any other. The excitement of a newborn on the way …
Shelter Definition: A place giving temporary protection from bad…danger. As a school grade kid I got asked this, and even just told this too. At kids activities, sibling sports, church, co-ops, etc. it was just the norm.I didn’t really take offense to it, more just thought it wasn’t really their business. Usually other kids didn’t …
Today is Thanksgiving Day. A day that we intentionally stop to remember all the “things” that we are grateful for in life. While sometimes it can be looked over or seen as cliché, its a day that matters because thankfulness replaces so many of our problems. Really! When we focus on how much God has …
I want my child to love Jesus and come to the conclusion of his need for Christ’s salvation for himself. I had a comment the other day that really put this into perspective.“People believe what their parents tell them & big coincidence: of the dozens of religions to choose from they ‘choose’ the same religion …

In the story of Jesus feeding the 5,000, (John 6) the fish and bread that boy had was most likely prepared but his mom. Without his mom taking care of him he wouldn’t have it to share and the miracle be fulfilled. Wow! What a concept this is! Our value as moms goes way behind …
Cue the Taylor Swift song “I dont know about you , but I’m feelin’ 22”!… it’s crazy how time shifts the older you get. School days seem forever ago, and I feel like I’ve been a mom for years-in a good way. Birthdays look different for me now, but I wouldn’t have it any other …
One of my favorite things about being home with my child is that I get to choose what goes into his precious bright mind. I think it’s so important at even a young age to introduce God and scripture to them. And here’s just a few ways that we’ve implemented it in our home. Devotionals …
“This is the one good thing I’ve seen: it’s appropriate for people to eat, drink, and find enjoyment in all their (labor) hard work under the sun during the brief lifetime that God gives them because that’s their lot in life.” Ecclesiastes 5:18 CEB. I’m reading in Ecclesiastes at the moment and there are 2 …
