I know what you’re thinking: how to have God time with young kids? It’s impossible! Unless I wake up before the crack of dawn, but then I’ll just be falling asleep! Or I could wait till right before bed, but then my attention is scattered, and I just stress about not getting enough sleep. I…
Learning to Stop Comparison in Motherhood: A 3rd time Mom’s Revelation Hey Mama, do you find yourself unhappy in your stage of motherhood? I want you to stop and consider: are you looking at social media moms and unconsciously comparing yourself? Or are you even looking at your put-together friends and all the cute photos…
Sometimes the idea of studying your Bible can seem daunting, especially if you don’t know what you need. Being a PK (pastor’s kid), I grew up attending countless Bible studies, and I learned quickly that it’s best to have all your tools ready to go. Now that I’m a busy mom, the same rings true…

Good Christmas Eve all! I just wanted to share an experience my husband and I had this week that has encouraged us and hopefully will encourage you. We are humbly and gratefully expecting our first child, a bouncy baby boy due in February and were at my doctor’s appointment Wednesday for my first bi-weekly check…
Wow! My life has been a nonstop vacation for the past two weeks. Last week my husband Nicolas and I went to a large church convention that lasted Monday night through Friday morning. This week it’s his family reunion in Austin, Texas by the San Marcos River. And amazingly enough, these two weeks have provided…
