Well, now that he’s near turning 8, I figured I’d put a post up about it so you could all get some sleep. 😉 We had a soccer birthday party for him with a little soccer… Continue reading Elliott’s 7th Soccer Birthday!

New Mercies Monday: Gratitude
I started this post LAST Monday, and after a particularly challenging week it feels like the perfect day to take a moment to stop, pause, think about how great our God is…and finish this post!!

Lady Selah’s and Sir Brian’s Birthday!
Our Selah Beth…5 years old! My goodness, she continues to grow into a beautiful little girl–yes, with her adorable freckled face, but more importantly in her heart towards God and others.

New Mercies Monday: Another Year
I’ll come clean–I was going to skip blogging this week. Yes, I had a birthday, but, well…I honestly just didn’t have too much to say about it this year. (I know, I know…which is surprising for this normally long-winded girl…) Until there I was at the gym right before the fitness class started, chatting with… Continue reading New Mercies Monday: Another Year
New Mercies Monday: Receipts & a Penny Horse
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
