  • What if…

    what if I just went to the park without taking a single photo… what if I stayed on the phone just a little longer with Grandmom… what if I held my tongue instead of tearing down his confidence…. what if I looked into the eyes of my child while she explained how she drew her Continue reading

  • Five things your baby DOESN’T need

    Simplified parenting. Back in 2018 I had a 5-year-old, 2-year-old, and a newborn and we were strapped for cash, as they say. At the time we were living at my aunt’s house sharing two bedrooms between the five of us in my family. My husband and I in one room and the kids in the Continue reading

  • The Past

    We all have one.. {God put it on my heart about a year ago to write on this subject and instead of obedience I chose silence and didn’t write anything for a while in response. I don’t know where this will go but my prayer is that it will be an encouragement to the person Continue reading

  • Free to Fail

    Dear Me, Failure is an option in the daily risk of life. Failure is not an identity only an outcome. Failure is a teacher. Start living life boldly with the fear of failure and trying anyway. Without failure, success isn’t so sweet. Maybe you needed that note as well. Continue reading

  • Being the example

    I wanted to share a little update on not being on social media. If you’re a new reader I’ll share a quick background on why I originally got off of social media.

You’ve probably heard about the mothers who have come before us raising their children in community. Generations of mothers sharing wisdom, sharing stories and struggles. Mothers coming together to help raise the next generation while being a support Continue reading

  • Reading the Bible in 2025

    Is it important to read your Bible? It amazes me how many times I hear people tell me they don’t read their Bible. Their reasons are usually because 1. They don’t understand what they’re reading OR 2. they don’t think it’s really that important. I’ll tell you what my reason was, I didn’t understand the Continue reading

  • The Great Purge of 2025

    Minimal-ish Minimalism came to my attention about seven years ago, around the time my third baby was born. During that time we were living with a family member and between my husband and I and our three children we shared two bedrooms. Needless to say there was minimal space. Because of our situation I was Continue reading

  • Maximizing on sin.

    … well of course not my own sin, but yours. The coin that repents heads: un-forgiveness and tails: forgiveness. The coin that has only two sides, two choices. The coin that is black and white. Simple. Heads To not forgive is to detain that person in the prison that I’ve built for them in my Continue reading

  • Planning for 2025

    I know we say this every year by the time December rolls around but I just need to say it one last time… Man, that flew by fast. This year was full of great things for my family. Of course, harder times sprinkled throughout but I’m thankful to say it was an enjoyable year.  As Continue reading
