It’s Freebie Friday, friends! Since Valentine’s Day is coming up, I thought these love-themed lock screen wallpapers would be a fun way to spruce up our phones. I’ve also included a handful of scriptures and links to other blog posts about love, as well, and hope they’ll encourage you. Thanks for stopping by, friends! Happy Valentine’s Day! LOVE Lock Screen …
“A new commandment I give to you, that you love one another: just as I have loved you, you also are to love one another.” John 13:34 ESV On this dreary Friday, having love for one another was met with some fairly common obstacles. I woke up with a migraine in progress, and my boys were less than enthusiastic to …
Your story is important. Your voice is important. When you’re ready, they can do a whole lot of good for someone else going through the same type of battle you overcame. I’m incredibly grateful for the people in my life who have shared their struggles and victories, their encouragement and listening ears, a hug and “I’ve been there,” thankful to …
Nolan (3 years old) slipped and fell into the corner of a play table and bruised his ribs a little. He was fine but hadn’t had a nap, and when he gets sleepy, he also gets dramatic and emotional—don’t have a clue whom he gets that from, haha.

There were meltdowns and literal wailing and biting and gnashing of teeth last night—over toys and invasion of personal space and “He’s looking at me!” and staying in our seats at …
David has been in LA for work the past couple of days, which means the boys and I are missing him. Also means I get ALL the snuggles and loves before bedtime … and two little hands fighting over which one gets to hold mine as we read our bedtime stories and tell their dad goodnight. I know it seems …
Mercy. What a week it has been. Tonight before dinner it all came bubbling over when Owen (who is 4 going on 14 these days and marches to the beat of his own drum) quite calmly detailed his plans to be rid of me, and his imaginings are both hilarious and innocently grim. Don’t know whether to laugh or sleep …
Early yesterday afternoon while Nolan was napping and I was folding laundry, Owen called out to me from his room. “Mama! Maaaamaaaa!! Come read with me?” “In a little while, bud.
