 I really did have some posts planned (and even partially written) for this week, but this silly little virus called influenza decided to invade our home over the weekend. My couch buddy! We’ve never dealt with the flu before and I have to say, it hasn’t been nearly as bad as I ever anticipated. I am [...]  I’m still here and definitely haven’t forgotten any of you. The last two weeks have been incredibly difficult for me as a mom and I’m happy that Michael is on his way home from Australia. I am thankful he was able to be with his family during this time, but am definitely excited to have [...]  We are in the midst of an unexpected situation. Papa John with Jacob and Nana Marj with Eli, January 2008 Backstory – Michael is Australian by birth (though he’s now a US citizen) and his entire family (with the exception of his mum) lives in Australia.

The title of this post sums up my last three weeks pretty well. It has been a season of ups, downs, bumps and bruises that had left me feeling inside out.

[...]  10 years ago I married the man who would become my very best friend! At the time, I had no idea what would be in store for us, but, I wouldn’t trade a minute of our life together (the good or the really bad). I know, without a doubt, that God is sovereign and He really [...] 
Picked by my babies, for their mama. I couldn’t imagine a sweeter bouquet! This post is linked to You Capture  If you’ve been reading here for a while, you’ve probably seen post about Rachael’s birth and my subsequent life-altering complications. If not, you should go check it out to get the back story on this post. Here’s a little extra background – bear with me, then we’ll get to the heart of this post. In October, [...]  Can I be real for a moment? . . . . This deployment (we still have a bit more than 3 months left) has been so rough for me. I feel like most days I’m just getting by. I often feel overwhelmed with all of my regular responsibilities compounded upon all of the extras I’m [...]  |
