It’s 4 am. I’m sitting here in my pitch dark room (with the exception of my computer screen) crying like i’m three years old. Despite the overly emotional few months I’ve had…I’ve just been thinking about a lot. In the middle of my thought process, I simply hear the voice of the Lord and all…

Let’s be honest. When you’re at home alone on a Saturday night, you might lean toward thinking irrationally. It is not completely surprising though, but when your thoughts start to wonder toward the idea that the person delivering your pizza might be the knight in shining armor (who is actually delivering pizza as a way…

It’s official. I never believed people who said the best place to find blog material was at the local coffee shop. Even though it’s been proven true in my own life, I had my doubts. Here I am, sitting in Panera drinking my coffee and from a far (very far) distance I see this man…

Forgive me that this blog update comes so late. I think it takes me quite a long time to process the insane day of Black Friday. Every single year, it is the beloved tradition of my sister, myself and our dear friend Anissa to embark on the dangerous adventure of shopping on the most ridiculous…

I thought I’d be married by the time I experienced these things. I thought I’d have a loving man to help me through the rough days, to hold me when I wept at the sight of a destroyed home, to cook me dinner when I’d had more than my share of disaster. Unfortunately, that is…

These two people, although they might be sisters and best friends…are complete opposites. We have Ashlin: the dark headed, dark eyed, fiesty, sassy, writer who played baseball, was a cheerleader and is a walking book of contradictions. The kid who once drank a cup of pure white vinegar on a dare, who used to make…

My best friend and I have a saying, “it’s the little things, you know?” It’s from one of our favorite movies and we laugh every time we quote it. This past week though, it’s not only been repeated to me by people all around me, but has been being whispered in my heart. Not unlike…

At the request of a faithful blog reader I was asked to write this post. Close friends and family know I have the Winnie Rant. Imagine finding out a huge part of your life is a lie. That’s what happened to me a few years back…when I was told that all the characters of Winnie…

I woke up this morning with the bright sun beating through my window and I heard these words: “You may never understand until the other side of eternity what it meant for you to walk in obedience.” As I continued to listen closer I heard something else. “You are not called to understand.” Simple, yet…
