They say there’s no one right way to parent but I disagree. None of us will do it right consistently, but I believe pointing our kids to Jesus and their need for him is the way to “get it right” because He is THE way. “Jesus told him, “I am the way, the truth,...
Choose Life
Where are my fellow night owls at? 🌙 🦉 I 👏🏻 am 👏🏻 not 👏🏻 a 👏🏻 morning 👏🏻 person. I love sleep. I love staying up late. But the saying is true. The early bird gets the worm. On the odd days I wake up early, I...
You Are Not Alone
I cooked in a dutch oven Sunday night. I’m just now getting around to soaking it to hand wash it. 🤷🏻♀️ I may not always keep up with the dishes, but my family is always fed even if it’s a bowl of cereal. I may not always keep up with the laundry but my family always...

Fighting for Joy
Today was a really beautiful day. Like most days, there was a lot of good tinged with a little bit of sad. Playing in the blowup pool in the backyard with my kids, making them water balloons and enjoying their laughter and carefree childhood. It reminded me a moment...
Let’s Have a Honest Talk, Mamas

What Mops (mom of preschoolers) Means to Me
