So very grateful for these kids who bring the noise, the chaos, and all the grey hairs. I'm also super grateful for their dad, and the giant brisket I'll be cooking on Thursday (because who said you have to do turkey?) What are you grateful for this week?
I'm the queen of the latergram and laying on the couch today and not actually at a swim meet, but still super proud of this little fish. Isn't she cute? There's just something so amazing about watching your kids find something they love ❤️
These kids are officially on vacation for the next two weeks (also the other one not picture who is at swim practice and missing the leaf throwing fun) 🙌🏽 We have a week out of school and then we are off to the Caribbean islands (CAN I GET AN AMEN!?) for a week. We are super pumped for a break from reality to relax and have some fun!
But really? How do you find the time to do these creative things? I haven't washed my baseboards since 2007.
Duma and I would like to tell you about a really great book that was born into the world today. (and keep reading because we're giving away a copy right here!) It's called The Wondering Years, and if you've ever thought about your faith in a non-traditional way (🙋🏼) this book is for you. @knoxmccoy is hilarious and wise and shares his story in a way that sucks you in and keeps you there (yes, that's a good thing) and asks the questions we've all wondered about and shares how pop culture shaped his faith journey. You'll laugh, you'll cry, you'll want to lead your dog to Jesus all over again. (Come on, you know you did this too)⠀ ⠀ 🚨 GIVEAWAY -- And because I have extra copies randomly laying around my house - I want to share one with one of you! Drop in an emoji, a weird thing about pop culture that helped shape your faith, really anything in the comments and you'll be entered to win! ⠀ ⠀ (Plus, you should all run and get one of these super soft and cute shirts from @milkandhoneytees. Please make sure I'm buried in one when I die in 80 years, they are like butter.)
"Because when we're losing our sense of worth, our identity, and our bearings -- God's Word stands. It guides and refreshes our tired and weary souls."⠀ ⠀ This is the heartbeat of Mom Up -- to push you back to the truth of the Word of God because that's where we find our rest and our peace in the chaos of motherhood. ((PS -- You can preorder and get a free chapter now at momupbook.com)) #momupbook
Adoption is such a big part of our story. It’s one of loss, missing pieces and sadness. But it’s also one of joy because through adoption it brought us #kendrickdjames and we are so grateful that he’s been written into our story. He has changed us, stretched us and transformed who we are. We are grateful for what adoption has meant to our family! #worldadoptionday
I've bought into the lie for so long that relationships have to be hard. But they don't. Community doesn't have to be hard or extravagant -- we just have to dig in and start somewhere. How are you finding community around you?⠀ ⠀ Learn more about the Thrive Moms Chapters (a great place to start with community if you need help!) at thrivemoms.com/local. ⠀ ⠀ 📷: @eliseaileenphoto⠀ ⠀

He’s my reason. He’s why I know the candidates I’m voting for and why elections are so vitally important. He’s why I’ll never walk into an Election Day uneducated in my white privilege again and act like it doesn’t matter. Because it does. It matters for him, it matters for our family and it matters for you too. So I ask you, make your vote count. Be educated, use your voice and let’s make changes for his generation. #vote #kendrickdjames
I mean let's be real here -- I don't think I've ever asked for diamonds. I told Brook I wanted 6 months of house cleaning for Christmas this year. So maybe someone else scrubbing your toilets is actually a girl's best friend? What comes before diamonds for you?
