#TBT Reflecting on my passion for Jesus and my journey as a Christian. It's tough to have faith and believe in spite of all that life presents daily. There's just always been something in me that pursues God, wrestles with Him and clings to Him. So, no matter what season I'm experiencing in life and no matter my mistakes or failures I'll pursue being more and more like Jesus Christ all the days of my life.

Bella’s birth was traumatic. Yes, beautiful, awesome and amazing -but traumatic. Nothing went as planned. Nothing went like anything I’d ever imagined birth could go. I was emotionally and mentally drained and not just because that’s usually how giving birth goes. I felt bitter for a little while afterwards because I had a difficult time making sense of what had happened. I asked God, “why?” And often, with tears either swelling up or drenching my face. I felt cursed. I felt robbed. I also felt extremely blessed and honored...read the whole story at WWW.RAISINGLITTLEHUMANS.COM

One day soon I'll have a nanny or Bella will go to daycare and I'll miss moments like this where there's no time to check email, write a blog post or chat it up on the phone...only time to color.

There's a Mom out there somewhere that knows sometimes the only way to get your thoughts written down before your journal gathers dust, is when you're in the car and right before you get out to go into the store. | I'm just saying. | Motherhood ain't a fairytale!

No. Pregnancy, labor and birth don't go as planned. Life doesn't go as planned. It's precious and fragile and shouldn't be taken for granted. | Some babies go into the NICU and thrive. Some go on to be with the Lord. | Posting because I don't think Doulas get a great deal of respect in this area. We don't just hold your hand and help you breathe. It's such a sacred moment in the life of Mom and Dad. It's powerful and important. It's life or death. God has to be leader. All others surrender. (at Dekalb Medical Center Labor And Delivery)

Bella's visit to the chiropractor today. | After birth, it's an awesome idea to get your infant an adjustment for soooo many reasons including their sleep, feeding, colic and overall health!! | I had regular chiropractic care while #pregnant and #postpartum! | The health of our spine, joints and bones is essential to all other functions working optimally. | $19 intro special at The Joint so it's affordable for ourselves and our babies/kids!

God's Word is the driving force of my life and my role as Mom. There's nothing I'll ever teach my children that isn't aimed at please God. I'm raising my children to honor God in their own special way but in every way possible!
