                                            as i stood at trip’s pep rally today, smiling so hard my cheeks hurt, i couldn’t help but think about how much i get to be a part of because i get to do what i love for a living 🤙🏼
maybe it’s the pregnancy, maybe it’s just me being a sap
but standing there on the sideline, eyes watering, i felt that deep knowing in my chest that god had written a plan where i could be fully mom and still make a living doing what i love. i knew that i knew that i knew if i believed Him for it back when i was pregnant with henry that He would deliver
he’s such an over- the-top, above-and-beyond kinda God that it shouldn’t (still does) surprise me that he had Stoked in store and these are the moments that would fill up my everyday life if I trusted Him enough 
Stoked was His way of proving it
a business built on faith, survival, grit, and a lot of pulling myself up by the bootstraps and making it 
three years in and i still can’t believe how it’s all unfolded, how hard work has opened doors for moments like this
so i can be right here
present, grateful, smiling at a gym full of kids who are also some of the clearest and most powerful answered prayers i used to pray way back when
i know good and well that this is the good stuff. this is what it’s all for
