Trust the Timing
It’s been a minute since I’ve written. Life is chaotic sometimes. There’s lots of things on my mind right now, but I should probably focus on one at a time. We all know me and my ‘everything happens for a reason’ and my ‘there are no coincidences’ logic. So what do you do when something amazing happens and then it’s taken away? Have you ever met someone that can wake up your heart again and give you ALL of the feels just by sending a simple “Hello!” text? These last five year

No One Ever Tells You
It's my Dad's birthday today. Gosh, how I miss him. As a way of celebrating him today, I wanted to share what I had written for my his memorial. As I read through it before publishing it, I cried all over again. I also smiled and laughed thinking of him. I hope those that read this can get a little sense of the man my Dad was and smile, laugh and cry along with me. No one ever tells you how hard it will be.

I just want everything to finally fall into place for me and my kids in the new year.’ I actually originally shared it on Facebook a year ago and unfortunately every year is harder than the last. That being said, this might be a long one. Before I star

Life Lessons on Family, Friends and Parenting
Recently, I read a book called "Of Mess and Moxie" by Jen Hatmaker, a Christian author. I made some notes on some things that really caught my attention that I wanted to share with you. 'You don't have to be who you first were.' I absolutely LOVE this! I can relate because I am SO far from the person I was even five years ago, let alone when I was a teenager. Sometimes life goes very sideways from what we imagine when we're young. Despite our past decisions, we can still bec
