I apologize for the delay in this post. I had to reset my computer last night so I couldn’t share this with you even though it was finished! I pray the psalms are a blessing to you when you don’t know what or how to pray. I have a confession. Over the past few months […]
Life without space is no life at all {#w...
Last Monday was the most Monday of all Mondays. At 9am, things were sort of quiet around the house and I thought to myself, Perfect! I have a chance to read today’s “She Reads Truth” devotional. I was halfway through the psalm of the day when Ben walked into the room, “I pooped my pants.” […]
Receiving from God when I’m so so tired
Day 5 of 31 Days of Connecting You ever have those weeks when your kids don’t let you to sleep? Yeah, that’s been my week. I’ve been woken up because of bad dreams, sickness, and the big ol’ “Hi Mommy!” Hi? It’s dark outside. Go back to bed. As my two year old says, “I […]

Five Minute Friday… on Tuesday. Oh well. 😉 Today’s writing prompt, Ready. Am I ready? Are you? I’ve waited and waited to write my book, now that the time has come to actually do it, I’ve wondered, can I? Am I actually able, ready to do this? We wonder if we’re ready all through life. […]
Receiving Time and Taking Time
Last week, I was given the gift of time. I think of all of the things mothers long for, time is at the top of the list. Time to sleep. Time to eat. Time to rest. Time to read. Time to exercise. Time to play. Time to socialize. Time to be. And so often, we […]
5 Minutes to Create. To be me.
I think one of the most difficult things about life is the sacrifice of all of the things we want to do for the things that need to be done. This is true for the stay at home mom, the work at home mom and the work from home mom alike. We all have this […]
