As I have written these random, unplanned posts on motherhood, I have thought about my daughters reading them one day. Pondering the things I would like to share with them. These posts are a few of those things. But they are also lessons God has taught me since becoming a mother. I don't think I've ever been stretched more, grown more, cried more, laughed more...or learned more in my life than these past 10 years. 10 years of motherhood. The biggest thing that I don't recall anyone ... Read More about Motherhood: it’s hard.
monday morning praise
Love this quote. This was one of the many justice related quotes hanging inside the Compassion Mobile Experience that I volunteered for on Saturday! Here is a post telling more about the mobile experience. Aren't you thankful that God does choose to use us and bless us by allowing us to serve? God's plan to help the poor and needy is for us, His children, to go out and serve! It's written all through His Word...His care for the broken, wounded, widows and orphans. I'm thankful for so much ... Read More about monday morning praise

Feel free to share suggestions if you see any ideas from the pictures! This great room that is our school room was added on to this home in the late 90's. We bought this home in 2004, so when we ...

faith and gratitude go together
I have been pondering my word of the year lately. Faith. And I started pinning faith quotes. There are some great ones! Then I came across this necklace. I love it. But, I love even more what it means... Pondering and wondering and praying that someday those that knew me will say that I was a woman of faith. But, what evidence do I see in my own life that I do live by faith? Can others see my faith? I pray regularly that God would increase my faith. And I think He is. But, do others ...
