Sometimes I wear makeup

Especially when there are other adults involved!

Gotta take advantage of non-kids time!

Like today when we have an event! A two-for-one, date and adult social time. Woo hoo!!

Today we’re going to a wedding and Nana and Poppie (my parents) are playing with the kids for the day.

It’s the first time my parents have watched them both and the first time I’m leaving W with someone other than his dad for this long.

I’m both thrilled and a little anxious. I’m pretty optimistic, though!

Hope you’re having a great Saturday!

      Thanks Teresa! So after typing this out in the car and hitting publish, I realized I forgot my pump 🙁 so that made things interesting. It was nice to get away for a night without the kids though. And Wyatt did great too!

    […] and I attended a wedding yesterday for a family friend: the only brother of Andy’s best friend Matt.  Weddings have affected me […]

About me

Hello and welcome.  It’s been a while.  For Lent this year I decided to fast from the thing that took too much of my attention from what is truly important: Social Media.  Though there are countless amazing benefits to Social Media, after about a month offline so far, there are seemingly just as many negatives.  I never realized how much of my brain had been hijacked by it.  I’ve had so many revelations about how much easier it is to move forward when I’m not constantly reminded of the past.  But I still want to record my family as they grow at this ridiculous speed and, I’m realizing, so many of our family’s memories are here.  Those along with so many of the struggles and stages we’ve worked through.  Maybe in the midst of COVID19 isolation and my kids around me so often, I’m brought back to a time when they were too young for school and with me so often.  Writing here during that time helped make up for the limited adult conversation in my days and the overwhelm provided by my… little treasures 😉 My husband, fur babies, three fiesty kids, and I hereby extend an invitation to visit this little sneak peak into our life. We’re super flawed and broken and there aren’t too many dull moments around here.  And I promise it’s not always as magical as some of my golden hour, sun-soaked images would suggest.  There’s usually too much coffee in my system and we welcome all the prayers.  Come on over if you want to process with me.
