Life is full right now. And good. 🙂 Normally winters seem hard with little kids –particularly February. Where I live, February is usually a cold, long month (no matter that it’s actually shorter than the rest), with little sunshine and even fewer opportunities to get out of the house. This year however, it hasn’t been bad at all! I think it’s because… Read more
Merry Christmas! 2015 has been a significant year for our family. On April 26th, our newest member entered the world, little Emily Rose. Emily’s Birth True to all three of my birth experiences, she came in a hurry! In fact, it was only by God’s mercy that we even made it to the hospital. Although I was 9.5 cm dilated (a… Read more

It’s like all the love and delight a child brings TIMES THREE. It’s a lot to handle –a heart-bursting, overwhelming sort of joy that almost hurts. It’s so good! But life with three kids is also a… Read more
Last night I fell asleep thinking about why I write. Many hours have been spent this past year clicking away at a keyboard. Many opportunities to sleep or watch TV have been sacrificed.
