That stuff you're afraid to talk about...the sin you think is too messy? We unpack that here...
Through good and bad, sadness and joy, my heart lies with showing the goodness of God in all seasons. Especially the messy ones.
Pain.
There is purpose behind the
Beauty
There is in the chaos,
Mess,
there is meaning in the
Every day society tells us that life has to be perfect and orderly to be beautiful. Our day-to-day should be a nothing less than perfect. We need a flawless aesthetic, a five year plan and perfectly curated social media. There's nothing glamorous about disorder and uncertainty. It's not "normal" to struggle.
But God wants to use those ugly parts, too. Those broken memories, those hidden struggles, and those less than beautiful moments.
God wants to use the ugly stuff, too...

As per tradition, we set up our Christmas Tree and got out our Holiday Decorations on Friday. Four boxes of Christmas lights, several hours, and a couple of hundred dollars later we have a tree decorated, a wreath on the front door and a handful of presents already wrapped and waiting for Christmas Eve. Since […]

How was your Thanksgiving? We had a “white” Thanksgiving and cold temperatures here in Kodiak. I cooked a lot of food, then ate a lot of food, and then slipped into a nice long turkey coma last night. This morning, I’m happy to have Wendy from Mama One to Three here to guest post for me as […]

How’s your week been so far? Ours has been cold. Really frigid cold. 24 degrees as the high…cold. You get it. But, what was I to expect since, you know, we live in Alaska and all. I’m excited to have Nicole from Moments That Define Life here at my Feature Friday Blogger this week! She’s another […]

Growing up in Alabama, we never got to experience a Snow Day. When we did get snow (which, anyone living in the deep south knows only happens once every 10 years or so…) it was only enough to cover the ground. Maybe an inch if we were really lucky. Snow is just not in the climate […]

I was so excited to offer my blog readers a chance to win a custom Wordprses Design last month. I had almost 150 entries and Robin from Farewell Stranger snagged the grand prize: A Custom Blog Design.

I’m away again today! I’m visiting Jessica @ The Spitup Chronicles sharing a little motherly insight into the waiting game of parenthood. My son has been stubborn and set in his ways since the day that he was born; and there isn’t a circumstance that we’ve encountered so far that we haven’t had to wait […]

The last week and a half has been emotional and stressful, to say the least. Little Man’s birthday party-followed immediately by Halloween-totally took the wind out of me. I wonder during times like that how mom’s with five or six kids do it. (Seriously, you guys are my heroes.) Little Man had his three year […]

We’ve been in debate on whether or not to send the Little Man off to PreSchool this year. I’ve talked about all of the reasons why Preschool would benefit him (and me) because of my work schedule and I’ve spilled my heart on how uncomfortable I am with the idea of someone else taking care […]

So far in my short 24 years… I Have: …Had my heart-broken …Lost every single one of my grandparents …Been without a home or a single personal possession …Known a love so big that it can’t be measured …Witnessed a miracle …Driven across the country …Hit rock bottom and wondered if I would […]
