my grandmother passed away which was so heartbreaking, but her life was long + beautiful and i know we will see her again.returning to the islands for that reason was bitter sweet, but death has a way of reminding you that life is precious, fleeting, and to be LIVED.i'm so glad that i got to take my oldest + youngest with me on this trip. we stayed with my father + he got to meet my son for the first time!🥹 they were besties by the end of the week!we went to the beach numerous times, snorkeled, ate the best foods, helped my dad sell his honey at his honey stand, made lots of animal friends and just had the absolute best time!🏝️the funeral was packed with many sharing the sweetest memories about an amazing and greatly loved woman. it was incredible to see that much family together at one time. my oldest kept saying "how can ONE family be so BIG?!" 😅 i've only ever visited the islands throughout my life, and honestly i don't know this side of my family as much as i would like to. i was always very close to my grandmother + father despite the distance but wish i'd had more face to face time with them over all these years.anyways, if you've never visited the u.s. virgin islands, this is your sign to make it happen!! no passport necessary and flights are really reasonable! ($150-350 depending on your dates!)and while you're there, find coral bay bees honey stand and say hello to my dad for me! he's the cutest + his honey is hands down THE best! 🐝#usvi #stjohn #virginislands #islandfamily #homeschoolmom #mixedgirl #travelgram #tropicalvibes
there i was, in my bedroom when i heard the screams from the kitchen. only seconds after he had made a run for it out of my room with no diaper on."it'll be good for him to be free for a moment", i thought.no, kristin. it will not be good. it will in fact be very, very NOT GOOD.😅the girls go bonkers and the boy looks amazed (and simultaneously scared) by what just fell out of his backside and into the puddle on the floor. the kitties, of course are curious.🥴the regret in me was deeply regretting. 🫠never again. lesson learned.you can't trust a half naked baby or your instincts, apparently. ever. not even for a moment. 😆or you'll be scoopin' 💩 with the best of 'em! follow for more parenting advice, tips and life hacks🙃

truth matters, but so does your delivery. we are all simply doing our best with the knowledge each of us has been given. both sides of the fence could use more grace + less accusation. more discussions + less debates. we are all learning, growing, and seeking. be patient with those who aren't where you are at. it's ok. keep spreading your seeds, but do so in love! the holy spirit is the gardener and he will show up and do his work.
jesus died to reconcile us to the father. his blood has ransomed us from the clutches of the consequences of our sin, which is eternal death. he rose again so that we may LIVE with him. and through his set apart spirit, we have the help to walk out a life according to his commands. we have reason to celebrate!! the king gave his life in our place and now we each journey towards deeper intimacy with him. halleluyah!!
which ever side you sit on regarding this topic, don't get lost in the "convincing". listen more, read more, study more, challenge your ideology + theology more. and throw on heaps and heaps of humility in the process. we all have so much to learn about his kingdom and his ways.
shalom🕊️

the sabbath is our favorite day of the week! in hebrew "shabbat" literally means "to cease / to rest" and it is the day god set apart as the MOST holy of all the appointed times!we started taking this day seriously about 6 years ago and are truly better for it! we sleep in, we study the word with our children, we worship, we spend time in nature, we visit with friends, and we are revived to the core!to get the most out of our chillest day of the week, we do a few things on fridays before sunset to prepare for the ultimate relaxation fest!+ we clean the house + make a ton of food! + and the girls take so much pride in setting the table extra special to set the night apart from the rest of the weekwhat about you? do you take time to rest each week? if so, what's your favorite part? if not, what's stopping you? what an incredible a gift we have been given by the creator when we align ourselves with his rhythm🤍__________#sabbath #sabbathday #yeshua #shabbatshalom❤️ #wholebiblebeliever #torahobservant #jesusculture #thechosen
