But God wants to use those ugly parts, too. Those broken memories, those hidden struggles, and those less than beautiful moments.

Somewhere I could sit with my new baby and relax, nurse, and collapse at the end of an exhausting day and cuddle. When we put the nursery together and were in the process of fixing everything […]
It’s no secret that the husband and I are trying to have a second child. It’s also no secret that five months in, we haven’t had much success. We’ve been spending a lot of time with friends lately who have four+ kids… And I’m starting to wonder if we could ever be a “big” family. […]
If you follow me on InstaGram (and you totally should be…@MrsCKirkland), then you know that I’ve been shooting pictures here and there for the last few weeks. But I’ve totally dropped the ball on adding them to my blog (and linking up with the fabulous weekly memes that are aimed at iPhone photos). So with […]
