  • Sometimes, I fail this kid in a big way. I can love from my own strength and when that fails, ugliness runs rampant. Impatience, frustration and selfishness reign. If that’s you today, don’t underestimate how much it means to get down on your knees and ask your babes for forgiveness...scoop them up, hold them close, repent and commit the rest of your days to loving His way. (he looks about 12 in this photo and it about breaks my heart. Thanks, @jaclynmgibson for the tears.)
  • We left Dallas today and currently I’m on a kid-free Whole Foods run since all we have in the house is cereal and frozen fruit. Guys, sometimes the on-the-go life is hard. Everyone we love is split between the top and bottom of the country and opposite coasts. Nearly 7 years ago, O was signed to the Redskins. We moved to Virginia to fulfill a contract. We wanted to rent, the Lord told us to buy. We wanted to move. He said stay. We never intended on staying here for more than his career required...and we accidentally fell in love with this inconvenient, far from everything place. Here I am again, tearing up over the not knowing. Waiting for the Lord to speak is a hard place to be, but I’m happy to keep falling for Virginia in the meantime. More thoughts on the blog. #linkinbio
  • These two + this place. It’s our last day in Dallas and that always brings up all the feelings. While I’m so sad to leave family (having your six siblings as best friends is the best thing ever) I’m ready to be back in our home and our routine after a month of ridiculous heat, precious newborn snuggles and more dates than we’ve had in a long time. Does anyone else live far from family? The going home struggle is too real.
  • Currently knee deep in toddler chaos, doing load after load of laundry and planning on vegan hot dogs for dinner so here’s a pretty photo of this bucket of the ranunculas I couldn’t stop snapping at the Bloom workshop instead of a photo of my Saturday situation 💁🏽 #reallife #bloombashdallas
  • Happy Friday Friends! Today’s blog post is one you don’t want to miss-I’m sharing a little bit about @bloomtheworkshop and how it impacted me, gushing a little bit about my sweet husband that trekked our offspring to a barn in the middle of nowhere so I could nurse this lady for 10 minutes, but most of all for this outfit. Those pants are made of magic, I tell you and those shoes withstood 11 hours of walking, standing, note taking, small-talking and flower arranging. Friday the 13th can’t be all that bad with this much good on the blog, right? http://liketk.it/2t2PD #linkinprofile liketkit #ltkunder100 #bloombashdallas
  • Yesterday, I shared some current toddler favorites on the blog and those Herschel backpacks are on the list. Something about this itty bitty lady in a backpack gets me every time. I also shared our favorite book for that curly girl and the best tool for keeping our guy in his bed (since he transitioned out of his crib WAY before we were ready.) • • • • • • #ltkunder50 #LTKunder100 #pursuepretty #momtogs #motherhoodrising #lovelysquares #simplychildren #honestmotherhood #thehappynow #livethelittlethings #motherhood #ministylekids #ig_motherhood
  • I couldn’t have asked for a better start to my Wednesday. The @bloomtheworkshop just happened to be in Dallas while we were in town and I couldn’t miss the opportunity to learn from my sweet friend @michaelanoelledesigns and so many other inspiring creatives. Taking a leap into a life of content creation is hard work and days like this make me so giddy for what’s next. • • • • #pursuepretty #bloombashdallas #creativityfound #creative
  • That one in the middle there is giving me a run for my money lately (a very kind way of saying lots of other not so kind things rolling around my mind.) Im thankful to her for reminding me when it feels impossible just how often I feel unlovable and am met with abundant grace, undeserved forgiveness and agape love. Phew. Motherhood, am I right? • • • • #pursuepretty #momtogs #motherhoodrising #lovelysquares #simplychildren #honestmotherhood #thehappynow #livethelittlethings #motherhood #ministylekids #ig_motherhood #letthekids #ohmamamoment #justmomlife #honestlymothering #motherhoodslens #motherhoodalive #motherhoodunplugged
