Pinspiration!

Been doing a little crafting over here.  All of these projects were found on pinterest. I made soap dispensers from mason jars, a clip board for myself and my own apothecary jar out of some random glass jars from Goodwill. It’s always a good thing to get the creative juices going! What have you been […]

Live it out.

<photo credit> I was driving home from the airport. I was ready to exit the freeway and I saw her standing on the corner. She was young and pretty but had a look of defeat in eyes. Her sign said she was she had “lost everything, anything would help. Thank you and God bless”. But […]

Teacher Appreciation Week.

Next week is Teacher Appreciation Week at Mason’s school. Two weeks later is the last week of school so I’ve been gathering some ideas to celebrate Mason’s teacher. She is a winner and was a perfect teacher for Mason’s first year at school. Here are some things I’ve found… Source: littlepumpkingrace.blogspot.com via Aubrey on Pinterest […]

It’s my J.O.B.

Source: impressyourkids.org via Melody on Pinterest   The job description of a parent is tiring, nerve wracking and a crazy maker at times. But when done intentionally, with hope, purpose and with direction from the One who gave these little ones to us it makes sense. Wow, there is no better job. There will come […]

are you ready?

photo credit Have you ever had that feeling when you feel like something new is about to happen in your life? You aren’t sure what. You can’t quite put your finger on it but you can sense there is a change in the future. It’s a good feeling. It’s an exciting feeling that gives you […]
