Hope in the Storm

I’ve spent way too much time trying to figure out how to start this because my heart is heavy. For some, Hurricane Harvey is just another…

I prayed and dreamed of you constantly. I imagine I prayed and dreamed of you constantly. I imagined if you’d be a boy or a girl and how much fun you’d have with your perfect big sissy. Each day that passed felt like forever, but also so much closer to meeting you. Then I peed on that dang stick and it finally said pregnant. We finally heard your little heart beating. I finally felt your little legs kick. Then I finally held you in my arms. I thank God everyday for His faithfulness & perfect timing in bringing you here. 🌈
Let’s go girls 🤠💕👢 Some days I still ca Let’s go girls 🤠💕👢 Some days I still can’t believe I get to raise my own little girl gang. Life is such a miracle. There’s no way there isn’t a God who is all-powerful, wildly creative & deeply loving. I pray that our girls learn to stand firm in the truth of what the Bible says about them: God knitted you together in the womb - every single part of you (ps. 139:10) Yet even before that, God says that He knew you (jer. 1:5) You are a daughter of the King (gal. 3:26) He calls you by name (is. 43:1) He has every little blonde hair on both of their heads numbered (matt. 10:30) You are both fearfully & wonderfully made (ps. 139:14) God loves you with an everlasting love (jer. 31:3) He set you apart before you were born (gal. 1:15) He created you for good works that He’s prepared beforehand (eph. 2:10) It’s truly incredible to know that God has known about our little girls forever and chose Mason & I to be their parents. It’s such an honor to be entrusted with these sweet little souls that have the ability to grow up and make an impact in this world for the Kingdom of God. All of creation emulates His majesty; especially our blue-eyed cuties, in my unbiased opinion. 😉

“I learned that fully loving and fully living ar “I learned that fully loving and fully living are not only synonymous, but the kind of life that Jesus invited us to be a part of.” - Bob Goff, Love Does That’s one of my favorite quotes, and I’m constantly learning something new about the concept of fully living & loving daily. One specific thing I’m working on is learning to be fully present and enjoying every moment. It can be challenging to be present and soak up all the sweet moments, when you also want to capture them on camera. 📸 I don’t know if there’s a magic formula, but I do know it’s possible to find the balance. It’s okay to grab your phone to take a photo. And it’s also okay to set your phone down and NOT take the photo. It’s okay if those photos don’t turn out perfectly. And it’s okay to come back & try again later. If we’re living our life fully and loving those around us, who wouldn’t want to capture it on camera?! But photos will never take the place of memories. Just snap the pic and keep on living, loving & enjoying every moment. 🤍
It's easy to believe our parenting choices determi It's easy to believe our parenting choices determine the fate of our kids. But honestly, a couple years from now we won't even remember some of them. The Bible simply says we are to train and teach our children in the ways of the Lord. No one will ask you if you sucked your thumb or had a pacifier, or when you transitioned to a toddler bed. No one can tell if your mom had all the trendy baby toys/accessories, and no one is going to be able to tell when our kids are grown either. Motherhood reflects our individual personalities, values and styles. It is an extension of our uniqueness as a family. Why do we choose to tear other moms down because of the daily choices they make? The goal we're all striving for is the same: to raise healthy, confident, kind children who love others with a desire to grow and serve Jesus. The baby steps we take to get there won't seem like such a big deal down the road. You are the perfect mother for your children. And I'm the perfect mother for mine. But one thing we could all use is a little more of is grace. 💗

What a blessing it is to raise our girls in the qu What a blessing it is to raise our girls in the quiet, ordinary moments. 🤍 Teaching them to love and serve the Lord starts right here within the walls of our home.
