Make-up and Skincare
I’ve gotten pretty particular about what I apply topically to my skin. As I age, I’m getting more and more careful to avoid “creepy” ingredients in the products I use. I wanted to begin replacing my make-up with "cleaner" alternatives. When I...
Today is the last day of May, which means our June baby is almost here!!! We have been hard at work putting the last finishing touches on the nursery before she comes, and I am so excited to share it with all of you!
We call Madeline our "Precious Pearl" because she is our long awaited promise that we prayed for! We know God has already been writing her story before she was even conceived, and we can't wait for it to officially begin!
When we started putting together the nursery, I knew I...
I absolutely love Matthew 11:28-30 when Jesus says, “Come to Me, all who are weary and heavily burdened [by religious rituals that provide no peace], and I will give you rest [refreshing your souls with salvation]. Take My yoke upon you and learn from Me [following Me as My disciple], for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest (renewal, blessed quiet) for your souls. For My yoke is easy [to bear] and My burden is light.”
In order to really fall in love with this passage, it’s...
How Far Along are You Now?
I am currently 36 weeks along, and have just 30 days to go until Madeline’s due date, (which is June 18th- Fathers Day)!!! It is incredible to think we are just about 4 week away from meeting our little girl! According to my pregnancy apps, this wee she is anywhere from 5-6 lbs, and 18-19 inches long!
How are You Feeling?
Overall I am still feeling feeling really good! I have heard that the third trimester is incredibly uncomfortable, but so far I have been feeling...
My mom has always said that being a mom is one of life’s most rewarding jobs, all while being the most difficult at the same time; And now being a mom myself, I can say without a doubt this is true. For that reason, I chose not only to write this tribute to my mom to honor her, but also to bring encouragement to all of the amazing mothers out there as well!
The Powerful Mom is a Praying Mom
One of the thing that stands out the most to me about my own mom is the way that she prays for our...
Mornings - most people either love them or just flat detest them.
How about you? Do you love the break of dawn, or do you find morning to be a dreadful time, and getting up early a constant struggle?
In my own life, mornings were definitely best described by the latter of the two. I was NOT a morning person. As someone who was not a fan of the break of day, I found myself resenting the virtuous nature people tended to ascribe to those who were. I’d have thoughts like, “What is the deal with...
Do you know how to talk to God?
Seems a bit of an odd question doesn’t it? I find though that so many people struggle with this very thing. Many people find prayer – the gift of talking with God – to be unfamiliar and sometimes very uncomfortable.
I often hear from the people that I mentor that they really don’t “know how” to pray. They are almost looking for a formula for getting it “right.” Or, equally common is to hear people worrying that they’re praying for the “wrong things,” or feel...

I can't wait to share her nursery with you guys when it is finished, but for now I want to share some of the highlights from her baby shower, which was themed The World is Your Oyster!
The idea came to me after praying for a special theme, one that really...
