Everyone brings something for the baby… but don’t forget about the mama! 🤍
Someone made me an “after-birth basket” when I had my last baby, and I still remember how loved and cared for it made me feel. So now I love doing the same for other new mamas. 🥹
A few favorite snacks, a magazine, a cute hair clip, pads for postpartum bleeding + nursing, lip oil, a fun drink… just little things to make those first days at home a tiny bit more comfortable.
But my FAVORITE part? 🥹 A printed and framed photo of their brand-new family with the new baby. 🤍
Because in a season when so much attention (rightfully!) goes to that precious new little one, sometimes mama needs a little reminder:
We see you, too. We’re celebrating you, too! Here are some diapers for you, too. 😂
Such a simple gift. Such a sweet way to love on a new mom! 🩷🩵🩷

The Queen was welcomed to Heaven today. ❤️🩹
There are no words to adequately express what earth lost this morning. She was selfless, loving, kind, fun, glamorous, hard-working, positive, faithful, and so strong - right up to the end. 🤍
I grieve not being able to hear the sound of delight in her voice when we talked. She always called me her little Songbird. Her laugh was like tinkling bells. She taught me so much about loving God and loving others and living in quiet, faithful excellence for His glory. 🙌🏻
I’m just so thankful that her legacy lives on in my own mom and her 5 siblings and their families! Truly one of a kind people, living for God, faithfully and in His strength, day in and day out. 💛
Mom-Mom! I love you so much. I will miss you so much. I can’t wait to see you again. 🕊️
“Precious in the sight of the Lord is the death of his faithful servants.”

🌴 I love palm trees. 🌴
They don’t break in storms - they bend *with* the storm. ⛈️ (John 16:33)
They stay green all year round. 💚 (Psalm 92:14)
They grow best when it’s hot. ☀️ (Jeremiah 17:8)
They produce good fruit to be a blessing to others. 🥥 (Galatians 5:22-23)
They point straight up to heaven, reminding us of the goal. ⬆️ (Philippians 3:20)
Their branches are symbolic of victory. 🌿 (John 12, Revelation 7)
Go and be like a palm tree today! 🏝️🙌🏻🤩

☀️Annual happy place week!☀️
The boys are trying to shoot me with water guns while I sit by the pool. The moon is a sweet bright spot in the night sky. A couple just rode by on the Broadwalk with music and extravagant lights on their bikes. The wind is gently moving the palm tree branches. Zion has a case of late night giggles. Noah is eating 3 scoops of ice cream from the Ben and Jerry’s shop and I am wishing this night will never end!
Thank you for another magical week, Hollywood. 🫶🏻 We will be counting down the days until next year!

One of these amazing boys made me a thoughtful card and gave me a small box of chocolates.
One of these amazing boys made me a special edition of his homemade comic strips in honor of Mother’s Day.
And one of these amazing boys patted my stomach during the sermon at church and whispered, “I think there’s a baby in there.”
😂🫠😂🫠😂
Happy Mother’s Day!
