A Ballroom Love Story

Did I ever share the story of how my husband and I met? I love our story because it reminds me of how God really does have a path for each of us. Of course we all have free will and different roads to choose from, I believe though that when we follow God’s intended path for… Continue reading A Ballroom Love Story

Love is in the little things

Today was filled with a whole bunch of lovely moments. My day started off with one of my favorite things…my husband and I saying a prayer together before starting a new day.

“Love is a verb”

There’s so many things that I took away with me this weekend from our marriage retreat, most importantly that we can’t do it alone, that it’s important to have God guide us and be an essential part of our relationship and also that “love is a verb”.

I was doing some light exercises in the living room and then happened to glance in the mirrors we have and felt such a glow and happiness to see my big round belly and I felt absolutely beautiful.

“The Me I Want To Be”

Not too long ago I wrote in a post that there are so many blessings in my life that I’m thankful to God for and also that I had this feeling there is something more that God created me to be but I haven’t quite figured it all out yet because it’s a growing process. Then I heard at our Church that… Continue reading “The Me I Want To Be”
