Slow Down

Hello friend, this month’s gentle invitation is simply this: slow down. I’m sharing why slowing down enough to notice this season of life has become one of my most meaningful forms of self-care. I hope you’ll take a quiet moment and join me for this gentle reminder that we don’t have to rush to live…

Travel Light

Hi friend, Took me years, but I’ve learned to ask myself one question over and over: Is this actually mine, or have I been carrying something God never asked me to carry?

Twice the Kleenex

I knew it would happen. I just didn’t know how incredibly bittersweet it would be. “It” = riding another wave of change as our two oldest kiddos launch new chapters of their lives. When our daughter and older son were tiny tots with chubby cheeks in car seats, Joel and I would sometimes reflect, “They’re…

A Whole Lot More

Every Sunday, for eight weeks and counting, a lot more happens in our home. We smile a lot more. Grateful tears fall a lot more. We breathe deep sighs of relief a lot more. You see, the enemy came for my sweet husband on Sunday morning just after Valentine’s Day. His attack was clearly meant…
