Do you have a daily routine that helps your day? Before jumping into a full calendar, it could be as simple as your coffee and quiet time. I know that’s my favorite time of the day. Or maybe it’s enjoying worship music or a podcast while sitting in the carpool line at school as you […]
These days, I find myself settling into a chapter of Scripture for weeks. While it would be easy to want to jump ahead and move on, maybe it’s okay to turn our pause into settling in and staying awhile. We all know life can be a rush. It’s almost second nature. Can I say it? […]
In the past couple of years, I have planted close to a hundred trees in my yard. It has been an adventure since I’m not a tree expert on evergreens. I’ve learned along the way and celebrated the moments where I’ve seen growth. We have a Creator God who is always in our midst, giving […]

Hidden in the back of one of my closets sits a bookcase filled with a lot of books. While this hidden bookcase doesn’t open up to a secret room, I realize it’s not the usual place for a bookcase. It’s different than most places for a bookcase, but it seems to fit there perfectly. Tucked […]
The first blooms of my wildflowers
DIYs. They can be absolutely wonderful or mere chaos. I recently decided to take on a do-it-yourself project, and I must say, I’m glad I did. After recently renovating my kitchen, I realized my kitchen table no longer matched the rest of the room. I like my table, though. It fills the space perfectly, and […]
