Hello all! For the first time in 87 weeks this will be a short and sweet weekly review. I’ve been out of commission this week due to medical reasons (I’m okay!), so I was resting the entire time. I spent my week binging four seasons of Home Improvement, eating, complaining, sleeping, going to doctors appointments,... Continue Reading →

There were also a couple birthday’s celebrated, a really bad storm, and lots of potty training. Let’s jump into the latest edition of my Weekly Reviews! On Monday it was Lea’s birthday.

Weekly Review 84
This week was, again, filled with precious little moments. I suppose that’s always the case when you have a little one. Every day, even every hour, they change. They grow, they learn new words and/or actions, and it surprises you every single time. Throughout the week, it was business as usual around here. However, the... Continue Reading →

This week teased us with warm weather, only to rip it out of our hands the second we started enjoying it.

Hello, happy Sunday! Six days before Passover, Jesus came to Bethany, where Lazaros was, whom Jesus had raised from the dead.

An Odd Time to Be Alive
I can't stop thinking about what an odd, yet interesting, time we're living in right now. This is just something that's been in my head the last couple of weeks and I'm finally writing it down. Time feels like it's going by so fast and I don't like it. It feels like there's never a... Continue Reading →
Today I Noticed: A Reminder to Enjoy Life
I recently finished Kenny Chesney's book, Heart Life Music. It was a good book and I enjoyed it thoroughly. As most of my readers know, I'm a big fan of his music. Now, I'm also a big fan of him as an individual. The way he lives his life left me so inspired. Honestly, I... Continue Reading →

This week was filled with many different feelings. Due to the gloomy weather (and the storms), there were times where I felt aches all over my body, or exhaustion. There were also times where I felt great and we had lots of fun. I was all over the place this week in regards to my... Continue Reading →
