Happy Father’s Day, Babe.

This morning I woke up and found the hubs playing Jenga with the Happy Buddy in the living room.

It was 5:30 am.

And that pretty much says everything you need to know about how amazing the daddy of my boys is.

Happy Father’s Day, babe.

We think you’re the greatest.

xoxo

Been struggling some with anxiety about all the things that are going wrong in the world and you know what I keep coming back to? Mother Teresa’s words, “If you want to change the world, go home and love your family.” ☀️ Today that looked like a special date with boy #1 to ride bikes along the beach and have ice cream with extra M&Ms. ☀️ I wish I got this perfectly every day. I am often wondering if I am sharing enough love when I had to hide in the bathroom for a bit because there were just too

It’s a good day when the baby’s diaper is full of sand, the boys have sun kissed faces, the corn on the cob is stuck in your teeth, there’s a promise of ice cream after dinner, and you figure out how to fit 5 people in a selfie. ☀️

Father of our kids >> Never ceases to amaze me with his faithfulness and strength to do the hard things. Always willing to serve our family like haul 4000 pounds of vacation things up 3 flights of stairs (probably 90% of the weight = my one suitcase ) set up beach umbrellas and toys and tents and towels, take the boys swimming and snorkeling, put on the sunscreen x4 people, grill all the hamburgers, calm all my fears, teach our boys about Jesus, and play 4-hour Monopoly games because it makes everyone happy. I tell him often what a good

Our world is always struggling for peace. And sometimes I can find my own peace robbed when I listen too closely to all the voices. Peace comes when we choose to lean not on our own understanding. Surrendering again and again all the little fears and anxieties that bubble up throughout the day. Repeating truth out loud and regularly. And making time to go outside and watch the wind rustle the trees and listen to the birds sing and the crickets chirp and breathe in deep what God is doing right now in front of you. Be faithful with the

Our previous life was rushing, rushing, rushing. This new life has its challenges too, so we cope with daily recitations of 1 Corinthians 13 , probably too much screen time , and lonnng drives to nowhere, but more than anything, this time is a holy pause and I’m so grateful. ✨

I’ve been off of Instagram for Lent and I must say - it was good for my heart and mind! But I missed you all so much! A lot has happened in these last 40 days, huh?! I mean who would have thought that bringing groceries into the house would require a mask and gloves?! >> “CLEAR A PATH, MAMA’S COMING THROUGH WITH THE MILK AND EGGS!” While it hasn’t been easy, I have felt that this season is one where I feel the Lord has shook me (and the Church) awake. I love that He is calling us to

Can’t let the day end without posting about this guy. I hugged him the other night and told him he is the glue of this family. Him and the Holy Spirit, of course. He keeps us laughing. He does all the things that I don’t want to do (drive, touch raw chicken, give the kids their medicine, take out the trash, clean out the drains, basically anything that involves hard work lol). He listens patiently to all my stories from the day. He doesn’t judge me when I overeat dark chocolate before bed. He has all the wisdom and I

✨SPECIAL DAY✨ The Reverend Brasington got to baptize Baby Z as a member of the covenant family at church this morning. I am often painfully aware of my weaknesses as a parent, but what brings me so much hope and comfort is that it’s not all about me! My children belong to God first and also He made it so that we don’t have to raise kids alone. Looking out at all the faces in the congregation who have loved us, prayed for us, blessed us and cheered us on in our journey as Christian parents, we can’t help but

It’s my 37th birthday and, like my shirt says, I’m “Feeling Good”. Feeling good that I got a nap today AND got to eat my weight in sweet potato fries at my favorite restaurant with my favorite people! ✨✨✨✨

Urgent Care >> Quickly becoming our new home away from home. Baby Z has had a rough week of fevers, sleeplessness and all the eye gunk. Doctor tonight diagnosed him with a double ear infection and double conjunctivitis and maybe strep throat. . Photo above shows smiles while we tried to come up with ways to entertain a baby in the doctor’s office, but the truth is, we have had more sickness this last year than wellness and, in full disclosure, I’m getting a little weary of it! Always seeing people slaying life and getting stuff done and we are
