What do you do when you fall on hard times? I’m surrounded by friends and family that are really going through it. I pray and pray and pray but wish there was more that I could do. One thing God has been doing, as I pray, He puts a song in my heart. The 2…

Lazy Day
Yesterday’s contentment has carried over to today as we’ve had a snow day. I spent the day listening to homeschool classes and books while being lazy on the couch with my favorite blanket. Today I sent this text (see pic) and it was totally an “aha” moment. My life is so radically different than I…
