As I contemplate this past year and this next year ahead, I think of several things: First, I thank God for the successes of last year…plans that I committed to the Lord, plans in which He gave me success. Next, I thank Him for He is continually transforming and renewing my mind, reminding me each […]

BLESSED, THANKFUL
This Thanksgiving I was so deeply grateful to spend time with my brother and his precious family. We don’t always get as much time as we would like with each other, but have continued to connect when we are able with our super busy lives! I love the times we can connect, remember sweet times, […]

Disney 2017

One Semester Down!!
How relieved I am to have one semester down towards my master’s degree in teaching. As I worked through many hurdles quite unexpectedly in the summer, and then all the due dates throughout this semester, and another great personal trial in which I was suddenly thrown into….I just feel deeply grateful for the perseverance and […]
Emma’s 9 months!
Every day’s a holiday with Emma. She reminds us so much of Lewis when he was a baby…his twinkly eyes, his joy…his laughter…his chub…his scrumptiousness 🙂 We adore her.
