When you’re mom is in heaven, you celebrate her anyways! You remember all the good things about her that made her unique. You tell your children how amazing she was and you keep her memory alive by recalling all of the things that she did, just like you would if she were still here! WhenContinue reading “When your mom is in heaven…”

Betrayal—It’s okay to walk away!
Man! I will often title a blog even though I don’t really know exactly what I want to say! When I came back to start this blog-the title hit me like a ton of bricks! Betrayal sucks no matter what! No matter how it happened! No matter who all was involved! Regardless of every circumstanceContinue reading “Betrayal—It’s okay to walk away!”
Troubled waters…
The last few weeks things have been quite hard in several aspects of my life! I had to find out the hard way that people I thought were friends, turned out to be frenemies! I’m not so sure that there a worse kind of hurt than that of betrayal, at least for me! But theContinue reading “Troubled waters…”
Picture this…
Scenario 1: “I’ve told you ten times to sit down!” (Snaps fingers) “focus!” “I said stop doing that!” “You can owe me your recess! I told you to get busy!” “No! You can’t leave the room again!” “Sit down and stop squirming!” “You’re not going anywhere until you finish!” Kid turns in work… (Scored aContinue reading “Picture this…”
Drop the Labels
Man! This word keeps coming back around in some way, shape, or form and I just can’t shake it! So here I am listening to my husband snore and typing out the importance that this word can hold–if we let it! I’d be willing to bet that, like me, you’ve been labeled!

Suicide-let’s raise awareness together
“I’m really worried. She’s locked herself in her room and is crying. I’m really scared that she’s is going to hurt herself. I dont know what to do, so I’m calling you.” These words will forever ring in the back of my head and there’s no erasing them! Why? Because they came from my ownContinue reading “Suicide-let’s raise awareness together”
When your voice is unheard…
I’ve always had a really big and loud personality! And I’ve never been one to stand back and hope to go unnoticed! Shocker, I know! And perhaps there have been times when I should have dialed down the attitude and the words that I’ve allowed to fly out of my mouth, especially when I’ve beenContinue reading “When your voice is unheard…”
Laugh often…
I had an impromptu trip to T town yesterday with one of my besties–I’m thankful to have a few! From the moment we left town we laughed nonstop! I cried one when we talked about Jesus, a little quiet when we talked about the stages/friendships of our kids, but then we laughed, ate, laughed, ateContinue reading “Laugh often…”
Life’s Too Short, Eat the Damn Cake
Oh my gosh! I can’t even begin to count how many times I’ve passed on having dessert because I had myself convinced that I didn’t “need it”! But by golly, I’m so tired of using food as a reward or a discipline all for the sake of how I want OTHERS to see me! LikeContinue reading “Life’s Too Short, Eat the Damn Cake”
