Through these short years, I’ve learned an important truth about love that may sound trite to you. But recognizing this truth about love is humbling and fills my heart with gratitude & awe for my sweet Erin.

It’s been a challenging week for me in more ways than one. I have needed friends to help me through this week, and I am most grateful for the One Who calls me His friend.

I realized that I desperately needed something. I needed an ability that couldn’t be bought with money or bartered for. I needed wisdom — and lots of it.

We were able to make the trek out to Oklahoma to visit my family and while there we heard a thought-provoking message. Here are a few easy ways to get you on the fast track to gratefulness.

My 3 older girls were enjoying popsicles while I held Finley who was watching in wonder. I was secretly hoping that one of the girls would notice her searching eyes and selflessly offer her a nibble.

I was putting 110% into teaching my kids something important, but they seemed to jump right up and forget all about it. In that moment, God spoke to my heart.
