So for those of you who keep up with this blog, you will know a few friends and I started reading through the bible chronologically. We got a bit into Genesis and then jumped over to Job.

The kid currently has one … Continue reading Joy (Sniffle) Joy Joy!
In the past five days there’s no telling how many times I have saved my kid from running off a curb, smacking into a light pole, or hitting a building. “Momma, I want a boy bike!” Everly road her cousin’s shiny blue bike a few weeks ago and was convinced that boy bikes are the … Continue reading Look up!
That moment you jump out of bed, throw on clothes, and take off to wherever in the world it may be when you hear the words, “he most likely won’t make it through the night.” I remember getting a call one night informing me my great grandpa was in this situation.
