Fictional Books I Read in 2021

So when I say “read” my husband always makes the joke, “Well, you listened to those books.” I laugh and agree, but regardless they are books that my brain soaked up this year! When it comes to fictional books I have very interesting taste. I grew up loving Harry Potter and fantastical books. Then whenContinue reading “Fictional Books I Read in 2021”

A Year of Growth

This year a friend of mine and I decided we wanted some accountability in reading the Bible and praying this year. We decided that the best way for us to do that was to have some structured-based bible studies. So we did! It was definitely a commitment and it took a lot of prioritization, butContinue reading “A Year of Growth”

Baby Essentials 0-6 Months

I made a list for some friends when they told me they were expecting . These are some of the essentials that we used for Ellis the first six months of his life. I also included a lot of postpartum items for new mama’s. These are by no means essential for every family since everyContinue reading “Baby Essentials 0-6 Months”

Easter. It Won’t Be Easy.

I am sitting here this Easter Sunday writing after getting done worshiping in my living room while my son is napping like I have done every Sunday since March last year.

Fall

When the posts about pumpkin spice lattes started coming up in my Instagram stories, I had a feeling of frustration instead of my usual feelings of excitement. I was not excited about autumn time this year. I felt as if my summer was robbed of everything I had planned for (thanks pandemic). I was mourningContinue reading “Fall”

Breast Feeding and My Worst Case Scenario

A little over four weeks ago, I was admitted to the hospital and was there for four days. I had a breast abscess that had been infected with MRSA and I was told I needed to have IV antibiotics and surgery to have it removed. Unfortunately, I had been dealing with this abscess for almostContinue reading “Breast Feeding and My Worst Case Scenario”

Five Lessons for Five Years

Five years. When you first get married five years seems like it will be forever away–especially that first year when you are learning so much about each other. I remember thinking multiple times: “Are we going to have this same argument again??” That seems so long ago, yet it also feels like it was justContinue reading “Five Lessons for Five Years”
