• 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? That question has changed me. I’ve realized that sometimes the most faithful thing we can do isn’t carry more. It’s trust God more.…

  Happy Friday friend, My latest post is for the one quietly carrying more than anyone realizes. I’m hoping these wish-filled words find you at just the right moment. And please share with others who may need a bit of encouragement, too. Wishing you all the joy your heart can hold today, xo

• Blankie

  

  Many moons ago, a work colleague nicknamed me “Blankie.” As she put it, my easygoing and gentle nature with others felt like a warm, cozy blanket wrapped around those I encountered.

And we have two rising seniors, one in high school and one in college. Friends have kiddos heading to sleepaway camps, where kids are learning to be a bit more…
