The one thing I started doing that transformed my day
“If you fail to plan, you plan to fail.” Or so the saying goes. I always rolled my eyes at what I thought was such a cliche. I really didn’t believe that or even care to try and plan out my day. Really, when do our days ever go as planned? Especially when we have […]

“Mom, who is God?” The surprising question came from my quiet 6 year old. And honestly, in the moment, I wasn’t sure what to say! Strange, right? But sometimes, when we’ve known the Lord for awhile, we find it hard to explain WHO He is in words. So I gave my son the quick answer, […]

Back to School Printable Lunchbox Notes (with Bible Verses!)
Sending lunches to school with kids is a new concept for me this year. It’s not because my kids have never gone to school before. In fact, we have a 6th grader (hello, middle school!), a 3rd grader and a sweet Kindergarten boy (the three year old still hangs out with me all day!) […]

Summertime is here, hooray!! We’re so thankful for three months of lazy afternoons at the pool, late night bonfires, extra time with friends and family and a few little vacations along the way.
