The Word of God tells us, “To each is given a measure of faith.”
Now, let’s not mistake this with “saving faith.” The reference to faith here is to the ordinary, in and out, daily faith by which we live and relate to God and others. Nothing has caused me to reflect on my measure of faith more than the progressive seasons of parenting. My firstborn started high school this year. Let me promise you that fear and faith have wrestled in my heart like never before. The stakes are So. Darn. High! I...

I can still feel the soft, warm cupping of chubby little hands on my face as my baby girl looked adoringly at me nose to nose. "Mommy," she'd say, "You're gorg." Moments later, she'd twirl into the room adorned with fake pearls and a ruffled dress to captivate her Daddy's attention. "Daddy, do I look beautiful?" she'd ask, already knowing the answer but yearning to hear it again and again.
There's no question. Girls are made to feel beautiful. It matters. It just does. It was knit into our...
Back-to-school season, it's a mixed bag. For every momma with kids, returning to school after the lazy days of summer brings all. the. emotions. It's not easy! Regardless of whether they're tiny tots or turbulent teens, returning to school brings excitement and a welcomed sense of routine, but with it, the bumps of settling into more structure, a little sadness, and legit grief over another passing season. No doubt about it, the beginning of a new school year can take it out of even the most...
I never dreamed I’d be sharing this type of news. In fact, just a few short weeks ago, I was overjoyed and couldn’t wait to share one of the best kept secrets we’ve ever kept…
I should be sharing with the world the exciting news that we are expecting our second miracle baby, but instead we are saying "goodbye on this earth" to our second child.
I should be 12 weeks pregnant this week, and starting to pull out my maternity clothes soon; But instead I’m tucking away the "We are Expecting"...
Lunchables. We all had them (and loved them as kids). Now that we are older, we realize they are really just over-processed, overpriced, and come with a list of ingredients that are a mile long.
The good news is, Lunchables are just deconstructed meals placed in compartmentalized boxes, so they can easily be made much healthier at home! In order to create a DIY Lunchable, all you need is a container with compartments, or silicone muffin wrappers to separate ingredients! As for the...
If you have been following Dashing Dish for any length of time, you probably know that I understand what it is like to feed not just one (young) picky eater, but I also have an adult picky eater on my hands! Shortly after marrying Sean I learned what a picky eater he was when he ate the same five foods over and over for about a year. It didn't take long for me to start sneaking in healthier versions of his favorites, and soon after I started to introduce new foods slowly over time. Being that...
Our Maddie turned four this week, and we celebrated her with her current favorites; All things pink and princess! It was a small party with family and a few close friends; But of course even a small party had to be celebrated with the sweetest dessert table, because well, it's my love language!

Most of the decor was from Meri Meri,...
