•2️⃣• Years with Asher Keith— excuse the picture overload. 😅 We are so grateful for this little guy. He is all-boy, and walks around with a tractor in one hand and an excavator in the other! He loves books, and will sit there as long as we will read to him! 📚🤓 He can’t walk past a mud puddle without jumping in, and dirt is his favorite. He LOVES to cuddle, and “Mama, hold me” is his favorite phrase in the morning. (I’m totally ok with that!) Happy birthday, sweet Asher!
Our morning mugs of coffee could NOT be more different. ☕️☕️😂 How do you drink your cup o’ joe? Hot, cold, over ice, black, blonde, basically milk with a little coffee? 😅
March was FULL!! Wow, what a month. 😅 I need a nap just thinking about it. Music ministry travel, judging at a school fine arts competition, the release of my first book 🥹📚, our art classes (which have been so much fun!), hosting our family from out of town (while we were out of town part of the time too😅), hitting an amazing business goal, playing in lots of rain puddles, our church choir getting invited to sing somewhere for the first time, 🎶 and super windy Sunday pictures on the porch. 🍃 Headed into April, and excited about the warm weather and sunshine. ☀️ Guess I’ll celebrate by buying some hanging baskets for the porch. 😅🌺 Welcome, Spring!
It takes us twice as long, and we make twice the mess, but it’s still more fun to bake together. 🩷🩷 Honestly, the cake we made wasn’t worth the time, haha. We likened it to lemon-cornbread. Haha! It was good, but it was a one-and-done recipe. But the memories we made making it together were worth every second. And we’ll do it again. 💙 Letting my kiddos help me in the kitchen has been an exercise in patience for my fast-paced, productive side. But they *are* my most important work, not a distraction or a hindrance. Bake something with your littles this week! Just enjoy it! The mess will be there when you finish, trust me! But so will the memories!
I don’t pretend to be a Martha Stewart-type. 😅 But there are some simple things we can all do to make our homes feel like the place of rest and peace they need to be for our busy lives. My mama required us to make up our beds every day. She said it makes the whole room look automatically neater, and she’s right. It doesn’t take long at all, and it’s always nicer to enter a neat room than a messy one! Making your bed each day as soon as you get up is a great habit— you’ll feel less stressed, and more organized, I promise.
Laundry— several years ago, I settled into a rhythm of “one load a day” for our laundry— If you’re a color sorter, this system still works. I do sheets every Saturday, and the other days are the regular clothes/towels/dish cloth stuff. One load a day does NOT take long at all, and it keeps it from piling up. It also keeps your laundry room neater. 🩷
We sang this song during Rally last week at the ACE Regional Student Convention where I was judging, and it’s been in my head since…Worthy Is The Lamb! (Written by Darlene Zschech)
Look what just arrived!! Almost three years of work just arrived in some boxes on my porch, and I am so excited!! We just opened pre-orders a couple days ago, and they’re already here! 🎉🩷 I am praying over each book I send out, that God will encourage the reader, and give you hope in the midst of overwhelm.
Ok, time to pack up some orders! 📚
We packed up our supper and headed to the state park for a picnic and a hike. 💙 I know there is so much about these busy days that I will forget, and I don’t want to forget this one.
🎶 “He Keeps Me Singing” by Luther Bridges 🎶 What are you singing today? Keep your eyes on Jesus and worship Him for Who He is and what He has done!
It’s my very favorite person’s birthday today. Josh Blanton, your kiddos and I absolutely adore you. 💙
When I think of Josh, the verse that comes to mind is “The steps of a good man are ordered by the Lord, and He delighteth in His way…”
He is a good man,…the best man I know. And he lets the Lord order His steps. And I’m thankful for how he leads our family and cares for my heart. He’s also really really good-looking and can grill a mean steak. 😉 I think I’ll keep him.
I am so thrilled the Lord let me go through life with this man. 💙
