Archive Post: About Me

I'm a Woman.  A cherished daughter of Almighty God.

His Wife.  Their Mama. 

I am strong willed, independent, and try my best to be kind to everyone I meet.  I quite like my homemaking role-the one that gives me the opportunity to be provided for and fosters interdependence between my husband and me.

Making photobooks is a cherished hobby (Thank you, Shutterfly!)

I love church.  All 3 hours. Then 2 hours. And then at home. Now back again!

Jesus Christ is my Savior.  I love Him!

My family is of utmost importance to me.  

I have never dyed my hair....until recently when the whites got a little too obvious out in front. 

My little girl is a mini-me and it is amazing (and challenging)!

My second little girl is our peacemaker. My little boy makes me run all day. My littlest girl outruns her brother and therefore me too. 

The glider is my favorite chair in the house.  

I could sit all day long and read, chat and rock. 

I am learning how to fuel my body better.

I believe in accountability and sought after second chances.

I add full-fat cream to recipes every chance I get.

Snuggling kids rubbed down with BabyMagic lotion is a highlight for me.

I proudly drive a mini-van.  We make each other look really good!

I'm a #tradwife and love it!

I'm not great at life.  I try.  I fail.  I struggle.  I try again.  I have some victories.  Some big.  Some small. All monumental.

My Father in Heaven has never let me down.

I have many blessings, opportunities, options, and freedoms.

I take that which I love the most granted far more often than I should.

I believe in surrounding ourselves with people who uplift and encourage.

That also means I want to be one of them.

 I've learned butterflies go away when you find the true kind of love that takes root deep inside of you.  I haven't felt butterflies when my husband called or came into the room for some time.  But what I do feel is so much bigger than that.  Intimacy. Trust. Tenderness. Stability. Friendship.

Love.

That thing we're always searching for.

Perhaps it's right next to us.  All the time.

I am committed to celebrating more and worrying less.  

Maybe you are too.
