snapshots of life lately

“when you go through deep waters

i will be with you.”

– isaiah 43:2

i missed you all last week 

it was one of the more emotional and hard weeks i have ever had

(no one’s health is involved, but it’s been hard) 

if you could all say a little prayer for my little family, we would appreciate it. 

i feel like i have so much to share with you all

and i am just trying to remember that when you can’t control what’s happening around you, 

to control how you respond- because that’s where the power really is. 

how do you cope with stress?

we are loving these little toys from sarah & bendrix 

how cute are they? anything knitted and wooden for little kids gets me.every.time.

i threw a baby sprinkle in our home for a dear friend and her soon-to-be baby girl 

she is due in january and has a little boy- so we showered her with all things pink.

i hope to share all of the details on here soon

my mom was here last week 

which really helped 

parks turned ten months old and experienced his first haircut as well 

his little personality brightens any sad or bad day 

he loves to do ‘so big,’ give kisses (with a super open mouth!), wave, clap, sing, and chats up a storm now! he loves books, trucks, and stuffed animals.  and i love him so much. 

i have also been super busy with my new business

it’s going so well and i am so grateful 

i honestly work just as much, if not more, than i did when i was teaching school

but feel like it’s just been a blessing for our family. 

so i am willing to put in the long days and extremely late nights

seeing women’s eyes light up when they try on the clothes; seeing them feel beautiful, makes it all worth it and i am really loving the experience. 

my christmas leggings came and will launch on black friday- just in time for the christmas season!
