If there’s one thing I’ve learned the past few weeks , it’s that going outside saves sanity during social distancing. My kids haven’t left the house in three weeks, so they fight constantly. My almost 6 year old acts like a 2 year old half the time. My 2 year old bites, hits, and pinches […]
I think it’s time we talk about morning routines. A little over a year ago, I committed to waking up at 5 AM instead of 6 AM, and it made a huge difference in my life. So much so that, somewhere along the way, 5 AM became 4:30, and as I type today…I wake up […]
Welllll…WOW. It’s been a wild few weeks, hasn’t it? We’ve been lying low over here. Our kids haven’t left our neighborhood in probably two weeks or so, and we only go out to get groceries and to go to work. Anyway. I thought we’d talk about surviving social distancing and how to make it easier […]
**Hi friends, Several weeks ago, Brandon and I went to Disney. This blog post has been written, scheduled, and images done for weeks. At this time, I have chosen to still post this blog post–not because I’m insensitive to what’s going on in our world right now, but because I believe we need a little […]
In honor of this day, I thought we’d chat about little ways to show kindness to those in our lives. “Amazon Prime” a friend a good book you just read and think they’d enjoy too. Write someone a card and SNAIL MAIL it to them. (You never know how much they might need your […]

I hope you’re cool with me being honest, because today, we’re going to talk about rest. For a couple months, I’ve been really, really tired. So tired that I rarely make it past 9 PM, and if I do, it’s til 9:30. And it’s not just the physical tiredness, it’s that I’ve been…emotionally tired too. […]

I love personal growth. I truly do. But if you had talked to me about personal growth a year and a half ago, I would have looked at you like you had 15 eyeballs. Up until that point, I was just living my life. I was decently happy, my marriage/kids/job were good, and I just […]
