Last week on Thursday was National Boss’ Day and I have been reflecting on some of the incredible Bosses/Clients I have had in my 12+ years as a professional nanny & household manager. Some of these women are powerful women in their fields. Some have husbands that are pro-athletes, country singers, or famous actors. Some […]
This month gets a lot of attention for being Breast Cancer Awareness Month, but it is also Pregnancy and Infant Loss Awareness Month. The first doesn’t directly apply to me, some friends of mine, yes, but not me. The second one does, twice over. I lost a brother to SIDS when I was 1.5 years […]
On Saturday, G & I attended a wedding for the first time since our own. It was a special moment for two of our friends from our small group. Made all the better in my opinion by the fact that we have been blessed to see this relationship go from dating and courtship all the […]
This week in our Church’s sermon series and in the Freeway book we are working on Forgiveness. While the exercises this week weren’t nearly as hard as the previous two weeks, it is the practical application that will continue to be a challenge. In some areas, I can only imagine what life would be like […]
Today I had the fortunate ability to really pause and be aware of how blessed G and I are. It was a stunningly beautiful day here in Nashville, with fall like morning temperatures that transitioned into late summer heat by the afternoon. I didn’t have to go into work this morning to take the kids to […]
I was basically single for seven and a half years before my husband declared his intentions and started to pursue me. In that time, I went out and happily lived my life full of work, events, celebrations and quieter moments too. I remember being at a small town festival and longing to have someone special […]
In the last week I have been trying to make time for more fitness in my life. I find I have to be as intentional about scheduling it as any other aspect of my life, if not more. For a while, when I lived in Dallas, I was great at going to Hot Yoga. I […]
Ok, straight up, this week was HARD! I seriously felt ill working on most of the exercises and there was more than once when I just shut the book and walked away. Because, truth be told, facing the truths about the parts of our souls we are hiding sucks. Who wants to dig deep into […]
On Sunday, my beloved & I went to church, then we swung past the house to pick up our Exchange student from Spain. She was out late the night before with some of the other students and was doing what teenagers do by sleeping in. We took her up the road to The Loveless Cafe, […]
So as everyone probably noticed, I took about a year off! My Beloved and I dated long distance, got engaged, planned a wedding, moved me back to Music City, moved into a two bedroom apartment, got married, miscarried our twins at 10 weeks and took in an exchange student. Our life has been full of […]
