Last week was hard. Really hard. We very unexpecte

Last week was hard. Really hard. We very unexpectedly lost our dog Bella. There is a reason dogs are used in therapy. They make you feel safe and loved. They’re loyal. They’re completely unphased by economic crisis, political unrest, sickness and disease. They’re comfort, and fun, and companionship. ⠀
⠀
And we loved her. And losing her did that thing that grief does so well, brings up other feelings of grief. And so we’re mourning right now. ⠀
⠀
The loss of our pet.⠀
The loss of attending church and school.
The loss of life as we knew it.⠀
We’re grieving for friends and people effected.
For the world.⠀
For essential workers and people on the frontlines sacrificing. ⠀
⠀
But hear me now, friends. Weeping may endure for a night, BUT JOY COMES IN THE MORNING. If your night is feeling painstakingly long, take heart, joy comes🌅🙌🏼

How are you spending your days? We are in this wei

How are you spending your days? We are in this weird space of life as usual, living our best lives, bored, hopeful, and deeply concerned and saddened for the world around us. Regardless of what you’re feeling, or how you’re spending your time, I don’t believe there is just one cookie cutter right way to get through all of this. There is not just one emotion to sum up all the feels...but I will say, this picture gives me #allthefeels ❤️ What is the light in your day?

Celebrated my little animal lover yesterday, and we had the best time. I cannot believe he is 5🦁🐻🐯 I will give you one guess what he’s talking about here☺️

It’s just me and the gang these days, and to be completely honest, staying home with kids is my jam. I have been doing it for 10 years. And in the younger days, when I was literally swimming in babies, we would go long stretches without leaving the house...because 1 mom, 2 hands, and so many kids☺️
.

I am no expert. I am not the color coded charts and elaborate schedules mom. I am not overly crafty or creative. I mess up. But we have found a few things that work for us over the years:
.
⭐️Do as much as you can outside for as long as you can (eat, craft, run, play, read, all the things- fresh air is so good for you & less mess in the house🙌🏼).
⭐️Music can completely change a mood. Play it often. ⭐️Magnatiles are the worlds greatest toy (all ages, all personalities, everybody loves a magnatile!)
⭐️Know what you’re going to have for dinner by 10:00 a.m. or else you will find yourself scrambling later. ⭐️Limit your coffee- savor it, drink it, but watch out. There is a fine line between caffeinated and ready to conquer the day, and jittery and irritable.
⭐️Whatever crazy high expectations and pressures for the day you have placed on yourself to raise the world’s next generation of leaders, difference makers, givers, and doers, lower that. While YES raising children is an amazing and important role, and YES instilling values and life lessons are needed, and YES what we do and say matters. Yes they are watching, and YES we need to do our best....BUT one bad day does not wreck and entire lifetime (or one bad week, for that matter). And leaders and world changers are still made even when the meal was not gourmet, the craft was not Pinterest worthy, and the day was not spectacular. ⭐️Grace. Give it freely to yourself. To your kids. To your spouse. The dog. Everyone. Grace upon grace and then some more. .
What is one thing you’ve learned you need in your day?

I haven’t posted much this week because I haven’t known what to say or think about all these things happening in the world that have so many fearful and anxiety ridden. The world feels scary and out of control for so many right now. ⠀
⠀
And so when I thought about what to say, I thought about the only thing that really matters. The Word. The truth. His promise. ⠀
⠀
Regardless of what you’re feeling or dealing with, we get to come to the Father. We get to find rest for our souls. His yoke is easy. His burden is light.⠀
⠀
Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you and learn from me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. For my yoke is easy and my burden is light.⠀
⠀
Matthew 11:28-30
