I am constantly trying to see the Lord in all that I do in a day. He teaches us all the time, and I don’t want to miss a lesson from Him. So, so often I understand His character through watching my children and taking note of the way my heart, as their mother, responds… Continue reading New Mercies Monday: Receipts & a Penny Horse

New Mercies Monday
This week, I was blessed with double “Jillian” new mercies! My sweet friend Jillian from Tacoma was in town and I was SO blessed to get to grab a quick breakfast with her. Such a treasured friend. We met because she was my student teacher, which seems like EONS ago!!! But I knew we would… Continue reading New Mercies Monday
New Mercies Monday
When I shut down my facebook account over a year ago now, I made a mental note to blog more often. And well, that didn’t really happen :). My zeal for writing and recording in this virtual scrapbook here has somewhat windled down to birthdays and holidays. Most of that, quite honestly, is that I’m… Continue reading New Mercies Monday

Oh, the STORIES that she comes up with…they are incredible. This girl’s imagination is VIVID and she… Continue reading Musings from a 2 year old
Potty Training Selah Style
I know this is the weirdest thing on the planet to blog about but Selah makes everything SO hilarious that I want to document this little milestone. AND, I’m certain she will thank me in 20 years…right?!! 🙂 Thanks to Selah, potty training her was an experience that had me in stitches throughout the entire process.… Continue reading Potty Training Selah Style
Selah’s First Haircut!
I will be honest, I wasn’t sure this day would actually ever come… Our sweet little girl has taken after her mother, who didn’t have hair for a very, very long time. I had put away her baby book, expecting to pull it out in a few years again to record her “first hair cut”… Continue reading Selah’s First Haircut!
Christmas Count Up 2014!
