It's been 11 months since having our second child and I thought it would be nice to share how it's been going! First, you see those faces?! I adore them! My children, a boy and girl, are 19 months apart. My daughter was born last February and my son was born two Junes before that.… Continue reading What’s it’s like being a mom of 2 🙂 11 months in!
2019- Year in Review
2019 will always be the year I had my baby girl. She came to us "late" but early this year in February. Such a sweet gift and perfect addition to our family. I just finished playing with my son, laying beside each other laughing inside his tent. There's nothing that fills my heart so much… Continue reading 2019- Year in Review
What I wish They Told Me Before Having 2 Kids under 2
Here's what I wish "they" would've told me before I had 2 kids under 2. Fall and Christmas plates & decor come back in season before you know it. Just leave them out! 🙂 You might feel like you are required to be the energizer bunny & pulled in many directions, but just breathe. It.will.all.come.together!… Continue reading What I wish They Told Me Before Having 2 Kids under 2
What Type of Parent I am
I've had the amazing realization of what kind of parent I should be this week. I want to start by saying that I have a reallly compassionate heart and I remember what it was like to be a tenderhearted kid. So, I guess I've always wondered how I would parent. I figured that I would… Continue reading What Type of Parent I am
Why People Think MLMs are BAD for Women
What a title, eh? Nope, I'm not Canadian! My passion for (true) feminism is what led me to write this article. MLMS have a stigma, to say the least. I've never paid too much attention to stigmas, especially when it comes to something I have solidly thought through, talked through with a few close people… Continue reading Why People Think MLMs are BAD for Women
Becoming what I wanted to be when I grew up
I have been doing my dream job for the past 8 years. Since the age of 12, I dreamed of growing up to be a missionary. An African Children's Choir came to our church and my family hosted two boys. It was such an amazing time. We had so much fun and I was deeply… Continue reading Becoming what I wanted to be when I grew up
To the One
For being a courageous person, I haven't felt very fear-less lately. Haven't felt like stepping out. And along with that, my goal of using this as a platform to hear others' voices, a chorus of courageous ones together has not been happening. In fact, I've failed to post someone's blog who accepted my invitation to… Continue reading To the One
Postpartum Bliss
I’ve gotta write this down. It’s entitled “Postpartum Bliss” because that’s what this season has been. And it’s so starkly different than my first experience, struggling so deeply with undiagnosed postpartum depression. Part of me feels like I’m holding my breath, having squeaked by the first 6 weeks with only low moments, that I’m able to come out… Continue reading Postpartum Bliss
An Open Note from a Very Pregnant Lady
Written January 25, 2019, 2 days before my daughter's due date. If I see one more self-righteous, shock factor pro-life photo or statement. Listen, I’m as pro-life as they come. I’ve had a huge heart for babies who are unwanted and moreso a passion for mamas who are facing pregnancy that is unexpected and perhaps… Continue reading An Open Note from a Very Pregnant Lady
