- I am a wife to the most wonderful man in the world and mother of five amazing children. Life at our house can be loud and crazy, but, oh, so wonderful and full of love.

My hope is that women are not satisfied with a life of mediocrity and defeat, but that they live abundant, transformed, and joy-filled lives. You can find me at my personal blog:Thirsty for Him

Somehow, though, we found ourselves chatting about daily life and as we did, we naturally just began working together on the task. Interestingly, I found…
Little Eyes…Always Watching
“…you became imitators of us and of the Lord; in spite of severe suffering, you welcomed the message with the joy given by the Holy Spirit. And so you became a model to all the believers…” – 1 Thessalonians 1:6-7 When Aaron was four, he loved to go into the office with Daddy to work…
Fixing His Words on our Children’s Hearts
“Fix these words of mine in your hearts and minds; tie them as symbols on your hands and bind them on your foreheads. Teach them to your children, talking about them when you sit at home and when you walk along the road, when you lie down and when you get up. Write them on…
Do you have your oxygen mask on?
Listening to the flight attendant tell us all about oxygen masks, I couldn’t help but make the “spiritual connection”- especially when she began talking about children. She said that it was very important to put on our own masks BEFORE we put them on any children seated next to us. I thought about me, as…
