Last month rolled around, and all over social media popped up that November was National Adoption Month. (Yes, I'm a month late! Being super real over here as a very busy mama who lost track of time, but still wanted to share what's on my heart).

True Rest
I'm pretty sure that in the last few months I am averaging only 1-3 hours of sleep a night right now, if that. (Sigh....) Five children, one teething baby.

Wear It With Confidence
I sometimes have eyes that tend to wander and look at others with the dreaded C-word ........ comparison. Don't we all do this? We look around at everyone else and what they are doing, what they are wearing, how they are raising their kids, what their desires are and the directions of their lives, instead… Continue reading Wear It With Confidence
Monday Mom Thoughts
His Mercies are New Each Morning! Last week was one of those harder weeks for us - not sure why, just an off week. It was full of distraction, interruption, bad attitudes, temper tantrums, sibling quarrels, sleepless baby nights and tween issues. Ever been there?
