"To the journey"

"to the journey. . ." I have heard that used at a wedding & I believe my daddy said it at one of our weddings. (We have those a lot in our family) Our lives are a journey & to all those who are on this journey with me I say, "Thank you." I am having a blast with all of you. I have some friends with new parts of their journey just beginning . . . A friend with a new business - WOW! - I wish y'all could have a front row seat to see God blessing her creativity so that she may use this "business" as a ministry to bless her family. Another friend (or 2, or more) who have new babies - this is one of the most beautiful journeys of all. Motherhood is a beautiful journey. My sister is having a little girl this summer. I will enjoy watching her on the mother-daughter journey. I know this is sappy, but I am watching a sappy movie & was at a wedding today so that makes everything extra sappy. . . . on a different note . . . My sweet grandmother is sick & has been for a little bit so I covet your prayers for her. My mamaw has been one of the people that makes the journey sweeter. My journey has been crazy & had some sharp turns, but for the most part has been sweet. God has a beautiful plan for my journey & I am glad He has the plan & put you in it & me in yours. So . . ."to the journey" (to quote one of my mostest favoritest people)

Christmas Letter 2023

Merry Christmas! How are we here?       How has this year gone by so fast?            How is it almost 2024? I can tell you how . . . because there are 4 kids (in 2 cities), 1 dad (sometimes traveling for work), 1 mom & her minivan, multiple teams, multiple schools & 1 cute puppy. Whew!! Baylor is 20 & LOVING her apartment life in Auburn! She is studying hard & keeps a busy schedule with tailgating, church events & general TALKING with friends. She is doing some babysitting & pre-teaching over her Christmas break & some more TALKING with friends. William will be 18 any day now! He just made the Men's Soccer Varsity squad for his Senior year & so that makes the 3rd team of this year! He will be joining big sister in Auburn come August & I am sure his dorm room will be a little less complicated. He is half-way through his Senior year & doing well in school. He studies, works, plays soccer & then a little more soccer. He & Whitt are tryi

So Many Things . . .

 So many things have happened . . . So many things good things & so many hard things. So many things that we cannot explain & things we saw coming years ago. So many people & so many places. This momma's heart has had to learn to watch them fly & soar. I keep thinking back to what my Daddy said at our wedding " . . . you give your children roots & wings." It is hard to give them roots that run deep & how you instill true values in them. It is also hard to watch them open their wings ready to soar. They are soaring! They are learning SOOO much & watching these adventures is a true gift. I know one day I will look back as this being a great joy of my life. I am experiencing hurt but it is amidst such beauty & growth. My baby girl has started to fly & she is flying strong. As soon as she started off on her journey she hit a few unexpected bumps & she took a minute, re-grouped & then just kept on going. She was strong & brave. S
