Our God is loving, graceful, forgiving.
This is going to completely be a God year for me and all the years to follow.

Through all the ups and downs of life, doubts and questioning of God was with me. I’ve learned that he has always been with me.

Protected me in my childhood, my teenage years and has taught me so many lessons into adulthood.

God is Faithful. He is True.
He loves each and every one of us, his children and his heart breaks when we are hurting and when we reject him.

This is the year of change.
My goals are to read more of Gods word each and every day and fill up my heart and soul with Him. To be an example to my family, my children so that they can see Jesus in our lives.

I will praise him in every moment, good and hard. I will thank him for every blessing and every struggle.

I’m so excited to see what God will show me this year.
What are you excited for?

Thankful for this day and these moments.

Spending my days with this sweet boy are such a blessing. I’m so grateful for all the hard work does every day so that we can have these days and moments.

My oldest isn’t the easiest to snap a photo of anymore but I wish I could capture more moments with him. I feel like these days are fleeting and going by too quickly.
My boy. The one who first made a me a mama. I love you to the moon and back forever and always.

I love and adore both my boys so much. Tween and toddler years are definitely not easy. And I’m experiencing both simultaneously. Sibling rivalry is only beginning. Blended family life is always keeping us on our toes.
But I know God is with you both and with each of us through every rocky tumble and every bright day.

Blended families aren’t always simple. And that’s okay, as long as you’re always open, honest, loving and there for each other and God is the center of your family and household.

God always has a plan, he knows your todays and tomorrows and he will carry you through.

In the whirlwinds of life, the chaos all around us, God paints these extravagant pieces of art for us. Most of the time we find ourselves too busy to stop and really admire all that He has created. We forget to enjoy the blessings He has given us.

Maybe it’s sacrificing a little sleep to see the Northern lights, maybe it’s reading that one more story at bedtime, or a “hey mom check this out,” from your tween/teen as you’re peaking your head into their room to check on them, and you make dinner a little late because what they showed you mattered to them. Perhaps it’s a late night conversation with your spouse to make up for all the rushed mornings getting everyone ready for work, school and activities because it didn’t used to be so busy.

Don’t miss what’s really important. Don’t miss the beautiful things.

Happy national son’s day.
These boys are our biggest blessings from God in every way.
They have the biggest hearts, they test our patience. They’re wild, fun and test their limits daily.
The love I have for them is immeasurable and unbreakable.
I thank God for each of them every single day and I hope to always be the mama they need and deserve.

This boy has the biggest heart, filled with so much love. He gave me the biggest hug and thanked me for his fun “preschool” lessons today.
He’s so excited to learn and do so many things.

Let the homeschool adventure begin. Simple lessons, books and more books and lots of play together.

God chose me to be your Mama. And I will do my absolute best to be the Mama you each deserve every single day.

I will pray over you and for you daily. I will love you endlessly, unconditionally. I will guide you, teach you, redirect and correct you when needed to help you. I will be your biggest cheerleader. I will protect you from all that I am able.

What do you prioritize in your day?

I’m starting to MAKE more time for Jesus in my day to day.
We all fall into the trap of being busy. But we need to make time to spend in Gods word and be closer to Jesus.

Isaiah 41:10
“Do not fear, for I am with you. Do not be dismayed, for I am your God. I will strengthen you and I will help you. I will uphold you with my righteous right hand”

Philippians 4:6-7
“Do not be anxious about anything, but in every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus”

Do not let the enemy steal your joy, your motherhood. Guard your heart and your children with all that God has given you to fight with.

This week has been the hardest week I’ve had in a long while. I’m far from perfect in every area but I can tell you what it feels like to be under attack from the enemy.
He will fill your mind and your heart with lie after lie about yourself. He will fill you with anxiety, sadness, fear and anger until it consumes you.
Lean on Jesus. Don’t lose faith. Don’t lose hope.

What an amazing beginning to the weekend. Nothing is better than family.

Seeing my aunt and uncle for the first time in eleven years, let’s not let time go by like that again.

Memories made, and moments remembered. The memories of childhood came rushing back.

12! How is our biggest boy 12 already?
His birthday was on the 31st but we had so much fun finally celebrating him yesterday and today!
I’m mentally preparing myself for the teenage years to come.

I’m so proud of how much he’s grown in so many ways over the years.
In his faith, friendships, academics and in himself.

2 Timothy 2:1
“You then, my son, be strong in the grace that is in Christ Jesus”

I pray that you keep growing in your faith, strength, confidence and in your heart.
You are loved beyond measure sweet boy., Happy 12th Birthday!

Happy birthday to my handsome hubby . I hope that you had a wonderful and fun day today. Low key and relaxing and an evening out. And of course a homemade vanilla raspberry cake just for you. Here’s to another year of celebrating you and the wonderful, smart, loving man you are.

Gods Promise.

God promises to give us his strength and power to overcome in this world. His word is a promise to us that we can do all things through him.

We can overcome all obstacles, all anxieties, depressions, fears and pains, struggles etc when we rely on God.

Motherhood is such a beautiful journey filled with countless moments of love, sacrifice, and joy.

Each day brings new challenges and rewards as you pour your heart into creating a warm and loving home for your family. From the simple act of folding laundry to preparing delicious meals that nourish both body and soul, every task is a labor of love.

And amidst the busyness of daily life, finding time to connect with your children, both young and old, is a precious gift that strengthens the bond between you. Embrace each moment, for in the midst of the chaos and the laughter, you are weaving a tapestry of memories that will last a lifetime.

And remember, God chose you to be their mother, and no one can do better by your babies than you can.
