Dig deep in prayer in this post by Jaime Hampton I found a lump in my breast. I actually had a dream the night before that I stepped out of the shower and looked in the mirror and my right breast was a strange shape. When I woke up, I jumped in the shower and…
I forgot my son’s birthday. Like, completely spaced it. I knew it was coming. I had even bought him an early birthday present. But the morning of his birthday? Nothing. I woke him up, made him do chores, and sent him to school like any other day. It never even occurred to me that it…
Okay. I need to talk about a subject that most of you, with children are probably familiar with. Relationships with your adult children. Let’s get really real for a moment. I don’t know about you but I struggle with living with my adult children. When they were smaller it seemed a lot easier. I am…
It started out like any other day… I hit the snooze button multiple times, then finally drug myself out of bed. I visited with my husband who had already been awake for over an hour, taken kids to cross country practice, made coffee, and who knows what else, and then went to wake up the…
“Pass him! Pass him!! Pass!!! Him!!!!” I screamed louder and louder until my voice grew horse. The cross country runners were less than twenty yards from the finish line and closing and my boy was just inches from passing the runner in front of him. I knew he could take him. And he did. (Okay,…
Last year, I was driving a couple of neighbor kids to school and had an eye-opening experience. The first day, while I was scowling and muttering unkind things in the direction of the car in front of me, they commented that they had never seen me mad before. Their comment stung my heart and I…
Earlier this week I had the pleasure of getting candid on air with Parker J. Cole on WPJC 104.5. It was a ton of fun chatting it up with her and in lieu of a regular blog post, I wanted to share our candid conversation with you. You can read the transcript, or scroll to…
“You’re the glue that holds everything together.” I would guess that I’m not the only wife and mother who has either heard it, thought it, or feels it. I suppose it’s a compliment. Or at least it was on the cutesy Mother’s Day card I saw at the store several months ago. The first time…
I am exhausted. It doesn’t matter how much sleep I get, it seems like I’m always tired. I’m sure it has something to do with being a mom. It’s summer time, so my kids are home all day and they have endless amounts of energy. And somehow, they can make even the most relaxing activities…
I am by far my worst critic. It’s like the inner “me” wants to recognize weakness or failure before anyone else has the chance to. I struggle with focus and time management, and the other day after committing to be on time getting out the door, I ended up being later than ever for an…
A few weeks ago, my husband and I were on a cruise. While we were at one of our destinations, we were on a beach in Bermuda and a couple was taking a selfie of themselves (is it still a selfie if two people are in the photo?). I offered to take a photo of…
The Bible talks about us inheriting a faith from Abraham. That we are of his “lineage”, not by blood, but because of faith. Romans 4:13 says, “For the promise, that he should be the heir of the world, was not to Abraham, or to his seed, through the law, but through the righteousness of faith.”…
