I haven't written for the past few days because the only thing weighing on my heart is my mother. I found myself wrestling with the thought of whether it seems pathetic to have a blog meant for sharing my thoughts on anything under the sun, yet here I am, compelled to write about her time… Continue reading What Motherhood Means To Me

Wise Words From A Little Man
Being a parent is such a wild adventure! With a 20-year-old and an 8-year-old, I feel like I’m well-prepared to understand just how crazy the journey can be!

Throw Back Thursday (Sick And Tired)!
I am bringing it back, throw back Thursdays! Well, I am attempting to. Life was lifin' for a while, and I wasn't writing nearly as much as I wanted to.

I felt so lost during those years of my life. I often hear people say that their twenties were the best… Continue reading God Does Bless The Broken Roads!
Throw Back Thursday (A Love Without Buts 3/10/2016)
I originally wrote this post in March of 2016. Nine years ago, when our love was new. So very new. I smiled the entire time I was reading this and reflecting on this post again. I smiled because I can remember the butterflies that this man gave me back then, I remember them well because… Continue reading Throw Back Thursday (A Love Without Buts 3/10/2016)
