First day of junior high together for The Littles… and I am struggglllleING today. Last night we had a great family time before bed. We sat the girls down and talked about the new adventures of school they are heading into, the logistics of mornings and evenings, homework and chores, activities and priorities; and we… Continue reading A lot of letting go…
Ugh, It’s going to suck to go here. I’m finally a little more sane, although still not at complete peace to write this. I don’t think I’ll ever be. It sucks to process through hurt. But 2 things I have learned — what you don’t process, you continue to live and make decisions around (… Continue reading The night from hell. It is well.
When I was a single momma, a few ladies asked me how I was able to work full time, go to school, and take care of 3 kids. Looking back – uhhh that’s a very good question… how on earth did I???

20(in)11 Recap & 2012: A DATE & A DARE I blogged some plans for 2011 here. God’s response to those plans was, “Not so much, baby girl!” He, again, went above and beyond! 2011 was filled with the fun of Taco Tuesdays, roller skating, grad school, Cowboys games, romantic dates, an incredible BDayPalooza weekend, camps,… Continue reading 2012: A Date, A Dozen, & A Dare…
Please caption this… I have no words. ❤
I received a call about a month ago, from Miss J’s DHS worker. At first the call was normal chat getting caught up over details and information, and then just as I thought we were about to hang up, he says, “There’s just one more thing I wanted to talk to you about…” Careful careful when… Continue reading And then there were 5…
“The snake’s words hissed into her ears and sunk down deep into her heart, like poison. ” This morning the girls and I were reading from their children’s bible and came across these words… they just struck me. What a vivid way to describe the process of deception. We talked about how the enemy can… Continue reading Above all else…
