Woven

Over the past week I have been watching this same little spider build its web from our back porch. Some spiders build new webs every night, but this one continues to repair the damaged places.

Love, your Mama

As I sit here in your nursery listening to the rain outside and watching the rise and fall of your chest I cant help but sit here and hold you a little longer. Rock you a little more studying all your sweet little features. Before you were ever here I used to sit in this... Continue Reading →

Never say never!

Thank you to Kristen Everson for today's guest post in our #yourstorymatters series. I was always the "I'm never getting married" and the "I'm never having kids" girl. In your early 20s you think you know it all, or at least I sure thought I did. In 2012 I met the guy that changed my... Continue Reading →
