I’m sitting here while my daughter is in dance class when suddenly my eyes begin to well with tears. And I think to myself thank God there is no one here right now to ask me a question so that I don’t have to lift my face; which is slightly covered by my fallen strands… Continue reading Happy tears
2014 was a true blessing. While there were some challenges – particularly personal growth for myself, we definitely are blessed with more than we could ask for. Here is my list of what I treasured the most: 1. Japan – trip of a lifetime! Still can’t believe we got to walk the streets of Tokyo,… Continue reading Most memorable 2014 moments
As we approach Thanksgiving tomorrow, and then the Christmas holiday, the thought of blessings is ever more present in my mind. We are a family that prays together and every day we do so, whether it’s as we begin a new day, before we enjoy a meal, or as we thank the Lord at the… Continue reading Appreciating life’s blessings
As I was walking toward home today after having come back from a work “farewell” get together, I was reminded of all the little things in my life that add up to such amazing blessings. Sometimes it’s so easy to dwell on the mundane day to day things that keep our life busy, and to… Continue reading All the little things that add up to amazing
I’ve missed writing and I wish I could say more right now but I’m so exhausted at the moment that all I can think of is rest. Just wanted to say I’m thankful for the ability to feel this exhaustion and where I am at this moment and that I’ll be falling asleep soon.

When I was writing down those… Continue reading Being Thankful and Aware
What a cute site we must be. My husband and I are relaxing on the couch with our boy Biggie snuggled in between us. I was reviewing for my midterm while my husband and Biggie nap and decided to take a break and take in everything around me. Outside in our little patio there are… Continue reading Thankful For This Moment
Last night I snapped these pictures of Biggie (our bulldog) and couldn’t wait to share them. It cracks me up every time that Biggie tries this because despite being too short that doesn’t stop him from atleast attempting to reach what’s on the counter. Sometimes if it’s a scent he’s particularly intrigued by he’ll even… Continue reading Lessons in Persistence and Doing Your Best
Today’s inspiration comes from my daily Zelda Wisdom subscription. We all have busy schedules and things to take care of but we shouldn’t take for granted the significance of a “thank you” and telling someone how much you appreciate what they did/do for you. Remember that every day is a blessing and we can choose to be happy and make… Continue reading Take Time To Say Thank You
