How are we already at this point, about six weeks to go and then we’ll meet our FOURTH baby!!! It’s incredible to think my body has grown and carried four little ones, such a blessing especially because prior to Maxwell we struggled for over a year to get pregnant. Zack and I took a huge… [Read More]

A simple shift of the mind…
Let’s begin a conversation about how constant and consuming and creative motherhood is. Let’s talk about how each day can hold exactly the same as the day before (whew!), but each day can also hold totally new things (also, whew!) that take your breath away, leaving you in wonderment of how great motherhood is. Let’s… [Read More]
Hey, Mister Sunshine!

This soon-approaching season of Spring is reminding me of the growth our family is going to have in June with baby #4. Celebrate this next season of motherhood with… [Read More]
A little pep talk for your heart.
If you’re having a hard time with comparison ~ constantly looking to the left and to the right and then measuring what you see against your beautiful self, you’re doing it all wrong. Look within and see YOUR gifts and beauty and talents. Go back to your world and make it small again. When we… [Read More]
