    Dealing with Situational Anxiety

    Whelp, it’s the last day of the month and I’m finally sitting down to write this post, and that just seems to go along with how this month has gone for me! I’ve talked a little bit about how I struggle with Seasonal Affective Disorder, but this time we’re going to talk about seasons more…

  • Resolutions Still Going Strong?

    Resolutions Still Going Strong?

    We all talk about New Year’s resolutions this time of year. It’s all over social media, and I’ve listened to multiple podcasts on different perspectives on how they’re made, how to stick to them, what to do or not to do. I’m not an expert by any means on any of this, but I do…

    Merry Christmas!

    There are so many things coming at us right now: ads, deadlines, outside pressures, internal pressures, house prepping for guests, planning and packing for travel… I almost decided not to send anything out this month. But, I’ve found a few ways to keep my December slow and simple, so thought I would share to encourage…

    November Therapy is Scheduled.

    No really, it’s almost winter, and that means I need all the help I can get to stay positive. Once October ends, I can immediately feel myself slipping. Jude’s birthday has come and gone, all the Halloween stuff is over… what’s next? Cold winds, chapped skin, ice, darkness, ugh. My sadness for the coming winter…

  • The days are long, but the years are short.

    The days are long, but the years are short.

    I know if you’re a parent, you have lived and breathed these words! I say this as my “baby” just turned four, and has just as quickly let me know that he wants a big boy haircut. So, soon I will be tearfully saying goodbye to those golden baby curls! Pray for me. As moms,…

  • You are Enough.

    You are Enough.

    Man, these past couple of weeks have been hard. As I sit here writing this, a few things are coming to mind that I think are more pressing to talk about than my original ideas of autumn bucket lists and holiday planning. I am realizing that when I don’t prioritize doing the things that make…

    Who Has Time for That?

    I’d argue, we all do! I know, that’s an unpopular opinion. We’re busy, right? But we all have the same hours in a day, and some of us are better at others at fitting all the good stuff in. Why? How? Here’s what I think. It’s about making space in your schedule for what matters…

  • Decide Once

    Decide Once

    I mentioned the Lazy Genius in my last post, but for REAL you guys. She’s soooo good. I’ve been binge-listening to her podcasts, and now I’m super hooked. She’s got so many great ideas, but one in particular is really simplifying things for me. One of her philosophies is to “decide once”, and I’m leaning…

    For Everything There is a Season

    I feel like there are two types of people. Some of you are stubborning clinging onto summer and cursing the cool winds of change blowing in. The rest of you, like me, are getting excited! Things are changing, fall is here, and that brings so many good things into our days! So if you’re the…

    Chill out, it’s Christmastime!

    We’re keeping a low profile this holiday season. We planned on it ahead of time, knowing that we were due with our little turkey right around Thanksgiving. But add in multiple extra doctor’s visits for me and baby and unexpected hospital stays for me, and let’s just say, we are all exhausted! I do believe…
