Me + You


It really IS true what they say...

Opposites DO attract.


One loud and chatty, one quiet and serious
One fruit and veggies, one meat and potatoes
One shopper, one saver
One a reader, one a TV watcher
One pink and sparkly, one camo
One blissfully ignorant, one politically knowledgeable
One can’t sit still and craves constant change, one is consistent and stable
One physically strong, one mentally strong
One early riser, one night owl
One can’t be trusted with sharp objects, one can’t wait for hunting season
One accident prone, one cautious and steady

Two opposites.
One home.
One life.
One family.

One LOVE.

Happy 9th anniversary, my honey. Here’s to many more years of balancing one another!

Why NOT me? Struggle builds STRENGTH

My mom said something to me years ago that she didn’t even remember, but it stuck with me. When I was in 3rd grade, I had to get stitches in the side of my head, and I asked her on the way to the doctor, ‘Why me? Why did this happen to ME?’….to which she responded, ‘Why NOT you? Why any other kid?’ I remind myself of that conversation often when I’m going through a struggle {no matter how big or small} and wondering, WHY me or WHY my child or WHY my family? Well, why on earth not?….nobody is exempt from mental and physical struggles throughout our lives. The GOOD thing is that even though sometimes it may seem like we’re on an island, we are NEVER alone. There is always SOMEBODY who can relate, sympathize, empathize, or provide guidance and advice. In going through our own struggles, we become stronger and then can be that support system to somebody else in need. Life most definitely takes a village. Today, choose to LIFT someone else up. Help someone in your life find their stren...

September 25th

A day that I’ll never forget. A day that started like any other day. A day that taught me so much more than I anticipated. A day that could have been so much worse. Happy 1st birthday, Coco. From the focus on pain...to the focus on movement...to the focus on scarring... I’m proud of this journey. I’m proud of my healing. I now know... Coconut oil is very flammable. Fire destroys faster than I realized Water doesn’t put out grease fires. Adrenaline gives you superpowers. Regional One is an amazing facility that our city to blessed to have. I am capable of so much more than I knew. Healing truly comes from within. What a year it’s been. What a learning experience it’s been.

Peace.

Although my blogging has been lacking, I promise that I've been doing lots of reading and journaling...I've just gone old school. Like, with a pen and paper. What!? But wanted to record a few thoughts here. As people do in the new year, I made some resolutions for 2019. I saw a few friends mentioning in early January that they choose a specific word to be 'their word' for the year. So, I thought, why the heck not? For 2019, I chose peace. Something I desperately need. In motherhood, in marriage, in relationships, within myself. I didn't give a TON of thought to it at the time...but as January draws to a close, I find myself diving deeper into this word and exploring how to truly find (and KEEP!) it in my life. I joined a Bible study group in August, and I have been trying to really focus on our assignments each week. Studying scripture is completely out of my element and comfort zone, but the more time I devote to it, the more I love it and crave it. Much like phy...
