How’s It Going?

I had another blessed, sunny afternoon. All four children are either sleeping or contentedly otherwise engaged (but mostly sleeping or soon to be). Ironically, my All Sons and Daughters Pandora station is my life soundtrack at the moment and I’m listening, worshiping, writing, and relishing the silence and space. The most pressing update is obviously,…

2015 Word of the Year

  I’m not necessarily one who sticks with New Year’s Resolutions, although I desire to (the same way I desire to be a runner, but have to admit this might never be the case). I like to ponder all the different things I’d like to accomplish, changes I’d like to make, or skills I’d like…

Both Hands: Adoption Fundraiser

The How & Why of Observing Lent

I’m not sure if you are a faithful follower of Christ, have read here often, or just stumbled upon this blog today. Regardless, as we enter the Lenten season (the 40 days leading up to Easter), I wanted to acknowledge this time – what it is and means – and how observing it can grow our faith….

Christmas Card Prayer Pins

Every year we receive the most gorgeous Christmas cards and every year it pains me to take them down (or I don’t and they gradually grow forgotten on the side of the fridge, receiving only fleeting recognition). This year, I wanted to intentionally cherish and look at lovely photos of our family and friends throughout the…
