Two weekends ago, I had the opportunity to attend a training in Louisville to be an optical team leader for the Uganda trip Iām going on very soon! The Gift of Sight program is incredible and I was blown away by story after story of lives changed by simply receiving a pair of glasses. Could you imagine buying a pair of prescription glasses for only $1?! Today you can. Your donation to the vulnerable women and children in Uganda will be matched 1:1. Thatās right ā”ļø $1 per pair of glasses š
My team is leaving in 3 short weeks and weāre looking for a few donors to help us reach our goal of bringing ā¼ļø 3,000 ā¼ļøpairs of glasses to Uganda šŗš¬

I can confirm this may be my children when theyāve been told several times to gather their stuff at co-op ābecause we need to leaveā but mom has one more conversation š

When people say itās ānormalā for kids to be exposed to certain things these days, it is NOT: 1. Normal - just because it happens doesnāt mean it should 2. Out of your control - you DO have choices and while some things will happen, it doesnāt mean you donāt have the power to take the necessary means to prevent as much as possible and be proactive What it comes down to is this: YOU are the parent and are fully capable of making informed judgment calls when it comes to things that impact your family and your children. Donāt allow bullies who just appear to be louder than your conscience to determine the way you raise your kids. You CAN parent and you CAN do it well. You are capable, smart, and chosen for this time.
Have you listened? Who do you know that is struggling with their past or mental health? Elizabeth is sharing her powerful story is this 2 part episode.
Anybody with me? Happy Monday, friend!
"How can I be dealing with these things? If I really trust God or have enough faith, it'll just go away." Wow. I've said similar words several times in my life. Have you? What helps you in those times?
I found out the long way that it's through embracing imperfections that you can find your purpose. For example: I've been picked on for talking to much or telling such detailed stories (to the point of causing me issues in opening up) and now? I'm hosting my own podcast where I can talk as much as i want and people actually WANT to listen (whether I wear a WW cape or not)! Be encouraged, you are created for a purpose!
I hope you had a lovely Easter weekend! Lets make this week a good one!
Believe it or not, there are multiple ways to homeschool and none of them involve sticking to a one-size-should-fit-all-but-doesn't style. #fridayfeels #schoolathome #funschool #didyouknow #imperfectlypollyanna #podcaster
As a teenager, I remember coming back from camp and having friends give a random item for me to create some sort of "sermon". I loved the challenge! I thought maybe I would try something similar for the next podcast episode and I need your help. Any object is fair game. I will randomly pick sometime this weekend and post the winner on Monday. Who's up for the challenge to stump me?
