Kept this thing alive for over a year. It’s been a goal of mine to grow a green thumb so each time I am able to keep a plant alive, I reward myself with a new one! 🌱 what kind of plant should I get next?
You ever have those parenting days where all your tips, tricks, and discipline tools just don’t seem to work? Just now, I was so close to leaving my shopping cart abandoned in the store because little miss was having a meltdown while mommy was trying to peacefully shop for Christmas decor. I know these hard days and discipline moments will pay off. It’s worth it to do the hard work now but boy, sometimes training up a child is tough!

I remember going to the grocery store a couple of days after my miscarriage. I was grieving the pain of our loss but I wanted to feel “normal” for a second and decided to get out of the house for a bit. Every aisle was filled with a pregnant mama or new born baby. I was grieving and I remember thinking to myself... “no one here has ANY clue what I’m going through. No one in this store has any clue I just said goodbye to our 2nd child.” On the outside, I may have seemed totally normal but deep down the pain felt unbearable. It felt like I was walking around with a big secret. To be honest, my heart hurt so bad, for a second I thought about knocking some cans of soup on the floor. 😳 _______________________ But later (after I had calmed down) I began to feel empathy for others knowing that each of us are battling something...whether big or small. It all counts and people matter. There’s always more than meets the eye. So take a moment to stop and be kind! You just never know what people are walking through! 💕
Always rearranging! Thank you, Luke for your patience with me. Last week I got to see @thenester share her vision behind her new book #cozyminimalisthome and I’ve felt all sorts of inspired!
Got a big smile out of this one on the plains today. I hope she grows up to love #Auburn the way I do. There’s something nostalgic about the place we call home. Maybe it’s the memories, the smell of mama’s house, the familiar streets, the atmosphere of a small college town. But more than anything, it’s where my roots grew deep. A place I’ve belonged and of loving refuge. A place that’s given wings to my dreams and nurtured possibilities of who I am and might become. I love you, Auburn, AL! 🦅
Joshua Tree, you were even more breath-taking than I imagined. I miss you and your sunsets!
I saw this quote recently and can’t seem to get it out of my head. It seems like all of us are waiting in some way or another. Every season presents us with its own new challenges and graces. Our souls wrestle with being patient. I’m not sure why but it seems that I’m often in the middle place of reminiscing the past and yet longing for promises yet fulfilled. Days seem to creep by. My 20’s have pasted me by. Dreams in my heart still remain. I’m trying my best to adopt the slow pace of life with God. It’s down right hard some days but I know in the end it’ll be greater than I can imagine.
Going to miss these warm nights in #palmsprings I hope to come back and bring my family with me next time. It’s just lovely... but man am I ready to squeeze my little sweet cheeks Shiloh!
