I usually braid Gracie’s hair at night so that she doesn’t wake up with lots of knots in the morning. Well, last night I did french braid pigtails for the first time. She looked super sweet in them too. When she woke up this morning I took them out and brushed her hair and then [...]

Yay!
My Landlord is finally here fixing the leak in the ceiling right outside my door. Hopefully there will be no more water to clean up out there

No interruptions
I’ve been studying the book of Proverbs recently. God has really been teaching me and speaking to me on how to live every day life. Proverbs is a great book on gaining wisdom, knowledge, and understanding. I totally recommend that others study this wonderful book.
I have also been loving getting up early. I love how I [...]

rise and shining
I’m really happy about my productive morning today. I woke up at 4:30 to the sounds of Becca blowing bubbles. Total cuteness. The sweet girl had a massive poopy explosion so I was up cleaning her and then began my day. I was able to do laundry, clean dishes from last night (we had someone [...]

Why?
My heart is broken. A good friend who is a brother to me has been mentored in the past by Ted Haggard. This man has been leading and shepherding so many followers of Christ and now has stepped down from his leaderhip position at New Life Church forever. His confession to sexual imorality has shocked so [...]

Slowly Unraveling
It’s definitely not easy. Having two children and a sick husband is so challenging. I love my family dearly, but I’m not doing so well. I’m feeling so overwhelmed with everything that I have to do. My apartment feels like it’s falling apart. I’m behind in laundry. The kitchen is constantly a mess being cleaned [...]
