Thick Skin
Photo: www.canadianfamily.ca *This post was written back in September. But it’s as true today as it was that cool fall morning. Thick skin, but a soft heart. It’s funny how life changes in the blink of an eye. Changes you never expect. Points of view revealed that you never realized before. […]
What’s in a Word….2017 Edition
I’m not too much of a person who reflects on things. I always thought I was. Maybe the truth is I used to, and now life just gets so filled with laundry, dishes, cooking and kiddos, that I don’t take the time to sit down and think through what works and what doesn’t and really […]
Coming Soon….
Oh boy…has it been a long time….. Blogging has always been one of those things that helps me think more clearly. It helps me be more creative, and grow in areas of my life that need it the most. (Or the least as the Mister says when it comes to crafting….it’s not like crafting is […]

What’s in a Word…2014 edition
Back in November, as I mentioned here, I was thinking about 2014. So many good things happened in 2013. It was a year of great Grace and patience, as I waited on the Lord to help me understand what He wanted me to do next. More kids (the Mister just “loves” when I bring this up!;) ), […]
Another long break…
[mks_dropcap style=”letter” size=”52″ bg_color=”#ffffff” txt_color=”#000000″]A[/mks_dropcap]t the beginning of November, I got to thinking about what my word for 2014 would be. That being said, I couldn’t think ahead without thinking about the two months I still had left in 2013 and what part my word for this year, balance, was playing in it. I made a […]
Thankful Day 1
You know that feeling of being overwhelmed with love? I felt it with all three of the births of my children, and when I got married. I also felt it way back when I met my best girlfriend-Sarah. Recently, I’ve experienced it again. And I don’t […]
