A few weeks ago my daughter and I watched “The Gabby Douglas Story” on Netflix. We both don’t have any experience or particular interest in gymnastics (although it’s my favorite Olympic sport to watch), but my sweet girl had heard about Gabby and the things she overcame to be a world famous, Olympic gold medalist, so, […]
Good day sweet friends! Have you all brushed your teeth today?!?! :) We are supposed to brush our teeth every morning and every night, right?! ;) And if we are really good to our teeth, we gargle, rinse and floss those pearly whites too! As I was doing this last night (the brushing part mind you…not […]
March is National Crafty Month! Now you have even more reason to whip out some fun crafts this month! I’m SO excited to share with you a NEW craft I just picked up!! Don’t worry…this won’t take the place of cake decorating just yet, but it is slowly becoming an obsession! Oh, Pinterest…why do you […]
Last week I wrote a post called, “Lessons from a Little Lamb.” If you haven’t read it, check it out. It challenged me (and hopefully you) to look up from the world and into the eyes or our Shepherd. It has helped me to pause from the busyness of constantly feeding on the empty things of the world […]
Hi sweet friends! I’ve missed you! Is February almost over?!?! Oh my…life is flying by. It’s been a while since I’ve put up a new post but I’m hoping I can be on here more regularly this year. Jesus has done so much for me. He is changing my heart, drawing me closer to Him, giving me […]
Are you busy? Man…we are busy! It seems every year we get even busier. How is that possible??! Christmas is an amazing season where we get to celebrate our sweet Savior’s birth! – but it can become so stuffed full of recitals, Christmas parties, gift buying, traffic, family dynamics, travelling and general craziness that we […]
Happy Thanksgiving! Every year I look so forward to gathering with friends and family around a table filled with food, watching a little football, taking a little cat nap, then ending the evening by partaking in some yummy pumpkin pie loaded with whipped cream (cuz that’s the best part after all)!! I can’t wait! Haha!! […]
Eyes. They are the doorway to our hearts…the gateway to our soul. What we focus on will effect the direction of our life. I’m sure you’ve had a parent, a teacher, a coach or wise counselor tell you, “Whatever you aim for, you’re going to hit.” It’s true! Whether you enjoy target shooting, throwing a baseball, […]
Good morning! About a year ago my daughter read the book by Kate DeCamillo called “The Tale of Despereaux”. The story follows a wee little mouse, with very big ears, named Despereaux who befriends a human, Princess Pea. Eventually the princess is taken captive and Despereaux courageously decides to go deep into the dungeon filled with […]
Sibling rivalry… It happens in every family. When I was little, my mom became known as the “witch doctor” for a season because she got on a crazy health kick which meant no sugar in the house except on rare occasions. As a kid, this was cruel and unusual punishment! Therefore, when candy did come into […]
