The other day I was walking through our hall and overhead my sweet 11 year old daughter talking to her friend. What I heard stopped me in my tracks! My sweet loving, adorable daughter was telling her friend that she felt like she was fat! Her words cut me to the core. One of my...
Do you ever mess up and swear you’ll never do it again? Kinley showed me this video of Jordan yesterday, and I about died! I couldn’t believe that he’s grown up so much since we adopted him, almost five years ago. And boy, isn’ he cute?! I remember that little stinker pooping on the floor...

I’m laying here thinking of my kids. Isn’t that normal for a mom of seven? I used to think it would get easier as my children became older, but now I know that just isn’t the case. Little girls become teenage girls, and teenage girls are complicated. They have strong feelings and opinions. They dream...
I woke up at 6:00 a.m. and began scanning and deleting all of the unnecessary emails that had landed in my inbox overnight. It didn’t take long to feel behind, even before I’d gotten out of bed. I snuggled deep inside my comforter for as long as I possibly could, as the sun rose above...
They say that wisdom comes with age and that we can learn much from those who have gone before us. While you can learn incredible insights from history books and scholars of the ages, the very best insights for you may come from your own family members. Knowing more about where you came from can...
