finding beauty, confidence, and rest in motherhood
Hope you are all having a fun and safe Halloween! I went out for errands as I’m not a huge fan of Halloween. Not for any particular reason – it’s just not my holiday. Sidenote … I loved Kristin’s post about how Christians react to Halloween. So, while mama was away, Daddy and Jemma Pebbles […]
We celebrated my sister’s birthday with a surprise trip to Artemisia – a terrarium shop! She took a lovely class and left with her very own treasure. Katie is teaching 6th grade this year and we have plans to host a terrarium workshop in her classroom sometime this school year. I can’t wait to be […]

Having this little lady visit me at lunch everyday makes the work week much brighter! As is my norm, thinking about Thursdays (my Friday) makes me all giddy and chipper. I can’t wait for the weekend! We’re heading north to visit my family and celebrate my baby sister’s high school graduation. She’s quite the stud […]
