Today I’m reminding myself that I don’t have to worry about everything or have all the answers. There are things in life I can’t control, things I don’t understand, and things I wonder about when I think about the future. But I’m learning that I don’t have to carry all of that on my own. I ca

Today I’m especially thankful for my family. 🤍 Stacey and I have 6 amazing kids, 5 are married, and we have one sweet grandbaby. I honestly couldn’t ask for more. It’s such a blessing getting to watch them all build their lives, seeing where life takes them, and being lucky enough to be a part o

I’m learning that not everything we do has to be seen or recognized by someone else to have meaning. Sometimes serving looks like taking care of your home, fixing a meal, caring for someone you love, showing patience, or simply doing the little things that need to be done each day. There are

Today I’m thankful for the little things. A beautiful morning, a good conversation, a warm meal, a pretty sky, or a moment when everything just feels peaceful. Sometimes we wait for something big to happen before we stop and feel grateful. But so much of life is made up of little blessings.

Today I’m thankful for home. 🤍 Not because everything is always organized or every room looks perfect. But because it’s ours. Our home is our safe space, our little bubble away from the outside world. It’s where we can slow down, take a breath, be ourselves, laugh, pray, rest, and just enjoy

I think one of the things caregiving teaches you is that you can’t do everything on your own. And sometimes we put so much pressure on ourselves to be strong, to keep going, and to handle whatever comes our way that we forget it’s okay to lean on someone else. I’m learning that being strong does

I’m just thankful for how faithful God has been through every season of my life. 🤍 Even in the seasons when I didn’t understand what He was doing or why things were happening the way they were, He was still there. He never left me, even when I couldn’t see what He was doing. Looking back, I c

🍂 30 Days to a More Peaceful Home | Week One ❤️ I’ve got my November calendar done, and now I’m working on finding 10 things around the house that I can donate. It’s amazing how much stuff we end up holding onto that we really don’t need! I’m trying to get a little more organized and get ahea

“Come unto me, all ye that labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest.” — KJV A few things I’m reminding myself of today: I don’t have to have everything figured out. I don’t have to be strong every minute of every day. It’s okay to admit when I’m tired, overwhelmed, or just n

🍂 30 Days to a More Peaceful Home | WEEK ONE 🤍 Let’s start November with a little fresh start! This first week is all about getting organized, clearing a little clutter, and making a plan for the month ahead. We’re not tackling the whole house at once. Just one small task each day. You mig

Words are the overflow of what's in the heart. 🤍 James 3:10 has me thinking about how much our words matter. It's easy to speak without really thinking about what we're saying, especially when we're tired, frustrated, hurt, or having a hard day. A few things I'm reminding myse

A little look at my daily wellness routine! I’ve become much more intentional about what I put in and on my body over the years. My health journey has taught me to slow down, read labels, ask questions, and learn about what I’m using. A few things you’ll find in my daily routine: 🍎 Homemad

🍂 November is here, and I think it’s time for a little reset! 🤍 I’ve been thinking about how much stuff we accumulate over time. Closets get full, drawers get messy, things get put away and forgotten, and before we know it, we have more than we really need. And sometimes it’s not just our hom

November is here, and I want to be a little more intentional about slowing down and being thankful. I know how easy it is to get caught up in everything that needs to be done, the things we wish we had, and all the things we’re still hoping and praying for. Sometimes we get so focused on what’s ne

As I walk this caregiving journey with my husband, I’m learning that love takes on a whole new meaning. It’s not always found in the big moments or in the words we say. Sometimes it’s found in the quiet, everyday things. It’s being patient when the days are long, helping with the things that onc

Have you ever heard of Hallowtide? I hadn’t really given it much thought until recently, but the meaning behind it is something worth sharing. ❤️ Hallowtide is a Christian tradition that takes place October 31 through November 2. It’s a time to remember those who have gone before us, honor th

There are days when I feel tired in ways that rest alone can’t fix. Days when I have so much on my mind, so much on my heart, and feel like I’m running on empty. I’m learning that I don’t always have to be the strong one. I don’t have to carry everything, fix everything, or have all the answers.

There is something about fall that reminds me to slow down and take it all in. 🍂🤎 The changing leaves, the crisp air, the cozy evenings, and the little reminders that even change can be beautiful. I think sometimes we get so caught up in what needs to be done, what we’re worried about, or wha

Lately, I've been thinking about how much of life can be spent taking care of others. Loving, helping, showing up, carrying responsibilities, and making sure the people we love are okay. As a caretaker, I know how easy it is to put my own needs at the bottom of the list. Sometimes I get so foc

Lately, this scripture has been on my heart in a different way. When you love someone, sometimes that love looks like putting their needs before your own, showing up on the hard days, and learning to walk through things together that you never expected. Being a caretaker is not always easy. T
