This is the most difficult and most personal post I've ever written. For those who may not know, we lost our first baby at 6 weeks gestation. We had been trying to get pregnant for several months, so when I finally saw that big fat positive pregnancy test, we were absolutely thrilled. I had what… Continue reading God Is Still Good – Pregnancy And Infant Loss

Forgiven And So Much More
When we think of Easter and Jesus, we usually think about eternal life and forgiveness of sins. And rightfully so! It's the greatest gift ever and Jesus paid the ultimate price. If the cross and Jesus' sacrifice only gave us the gift of eternal life with Him that would be way more than enough. But… Continue reading Forgiven And So Much More
New Year – 2019
For the last few years, as a new year begins, I will pray about it and ask God to give me a vision or scripture for the upcoming year. 2018 was a year of increase and God put Deuteronomy 28:2 in my heart, and boy... We have been completely over taken by His blessings! We… Continue reading New Year – 2019
Nothing Is Impossible For God
In December of 2016, I sat down in the rocking chair we had in our nursery. We didn't have a baby, and I wasn't even pregnant yet, but we had started preparing the room in faith. We painted the walls, we bought a glider/rocking chair, and had just ordered a baby crib. My womb was… Continue reading Nothing Is Impossible For God
Trying To Get Pregnant & What God Has To Say About It
I wanted to share a topic today that so many women struggle with at some point or another. Trying to get pregnant, TTC, trying, etc. It seems there are two extremes - those who can't help or stop getting pregnant and those who try everything and still can't carry a baby to term successfully. It's… Continue reading Trying To Get Pregnant & What God Has To Say About It
Thanksgiving All Year Long
Thanksgiving isn't just a holiday. It's not just a day to set aside and be thankful. It's not even a whole month to make daily posts about what you're thankful for. Thanksgiving is something that should be apart of our lives daily all year long. "Be anxious for nothing, but in everything by prayer and… Continue reading Thanksgiving All Year Long
Hello, November – Our New House Testimony
I'm going into a very busy, but blessed November! We close on our new house tomorrow morning and have our final walkthrough tonight! This house is such a blessing to us and a great reminder that God wants to bless us more than we want His blessings. When Daniel and I started looking at houses,… Continue reading Hello, November – Our New House Testimony
Sorrow to Joy – A Joyful Mother
Two years ago, I wanted nothing else than to be a mommy. I remember, at some point on my journey to motherhood, laying on the floor of our "nursery" crying and asking God for a baby. I understood all too well what Hannah was going through when the Bible talks about her weeping in anguish… Continue reading Sorrow to Joy – A Joyful Mother
Promises For Breastfeeding
Breastfeeding was the thing I was most nervous about while pregnant, I think. I had never done it before, obviously, and I wasn't sure if I was "strong enough" to do it. It was my desire to breastfeed, but I wasn't sure if I'd go through with it. I had to have a c-section and… Continue reading Promises For Breastfeeding
Sweet Sleep
My daughter is seriously the best baby ever. She has definitely spoiled us. She could have been sleeping through the night at a month old if this first time mommy wasn't worried about her getting enough nutrition. I would go in and WAKE her up in the middle of the night to feed her. She'd… Continue reading Sweet Sleep
