Honestly, I am struggling a lot lately. Everywhere I look, moms are tearing each other down. Believers are divided over things they have no business being divided over.Women are destroying other women. We are divided and fighting over things that we have no business fighting over, commenting on, or caring about (when it comes to … Continue reading Momma’s Heart: the Kind of Mom I Am

This Momma’s Heart: Preparing for 2 under 2
Tonight, my mom came over to help me prepare freezer meals. (Post on food prep to come). We made 13 meals for about $25, which will help me a ton as my husband is on the road this month.

To the Momma Who Feels Like She Has to Apologize
I feel you. I really do. For the last two months, I haven't been to church, and it's only been the last several weeks that I've been able to watch our service online. I'm so tired. I cancel plans a lot. Being pregnant, with a 10 month old at home, I'm very careful about how … Continue reading To the Momma Who Feels Like She Has to Apologize
Thoughts from a Mom After Daylight Savings Time Ends

(This is going to make … Continue reading Thoughts from a Mom After Daylight Savings Time Ends
An Imperfect Mom Kind of Night
What a day yesterday was. It's been disappointing, insomnia has hit, and I've been feeling like crap for most of the week. So, last night, I had hubby move our TV into the bedroom so I could just spend time with the family in bed in my PJs, and, now, we are probably killing our … Continue reading An Imperfect Mom Kind of Night
You’re NOT a Bad Mom: Knowing Your Limits
There are a lot of roles we can take on in life that teach us our limits, our abilities, and our shortcomings. For example, working in day treatment for 3 years has taught me I don't belong in that restrictive of a setting - that high stress. So, a hospital or crisis center is out … Continue reading You’re NOT a Bad Mom: Knowing Your Limits
Balancing Home & Ministry
This has been a heck-of-a-week. So many tornados, so much flooding. Pray for your Oklahoma friends. So, today (Sunday), I ended up staying home from church while hubby went to serve. Last night, right about midnight or so, our sirens went off...I was going to the bathroom of all things, right when they hit. Hubby … Continue reading Balancing Home & Ministry
Dear Momma:
Dear momma, I see those tears. I feel the ache in your heart. I feel the loneliness & shame. And, I feel the immense love you can barely contain.
