I’ve got so much to be grateful for this year. I I’ve got so much to be grateful for this year. I’ve been stretched in ways I didn’t expect, but those moments taught me more about God’s peace, my capacity, and what truly matters.

So today, I’m grateful — not just for my family, the food, or the tradition…but for the growth, the grace, and the God who carried me through every season.

Happy Thanksgiving yall! 🧡🙏🏽 

“I will praise you, Lord, with all my heart; I will tell of all the marvelous things you have done. I will be filled with joy because of you. I will sing praises to your name, O Most High.”

I’m a traditional girlie through and through, so I’m a traditional girlie through and through, so I never imagined saying “no” to hosting on my favorite holiday. But I’m slowly learning to choose what God is actually calling me to — not what other people’s expectations or guilt push me toward.

We weren’t designed to run ourselves into exhaustion. And honestly?

That’s what I’m looking forward to the most tomorrow…ending the night with peace, not burnout 😮‍💨🙌🏽🦃

I felt led to share this because the reality is, f I felt led to share this because the reality is, for a lot of people, the holidays are a tough time. If you’ve been feeling guilty for wanting to sit Thanksgiving out, you don’t need a dramatic excuse. You need a clean, respectful boundary that protects your peace without creating unnecessary conflict.

They may be disappointed, but disappointment is not disrespect. Time and time again, Jesus modeled for us that you can love your people and still have boundaries. 

You don’t need to justify.
You do not need to over-explain.
You do not need to lie. 
You do not need to defend.

So let your “yes” be yes, and your “no” be no. (Matthew 5:37)

The holiday season brings joy, but it also brings The holiday season brings joy, but it also brings noise, pressure, and expectations.

Before you say yes to all the things this season brings, ask yourself: 

• Am I saying yes because I don’t want to disappoint someone?
• Do I actually have the time, energy, or finances for this?

God never designed us to carry everyone else’s expectations. You can love your family AND honor your capacity this season. Jesus did. (John 7:6)

I love how God used something as simple as a puzzl I love how God used something as simple as a puzzle to bring His word to life:

“And we know that God causes everything to work together for the good of those who love Him...” - Romans 8:28

And to show me what trusting Him with all the pieces of my life actually looks like:

“I know the plans I have in mind for you, declares the LORD; they are plans for peace, not disaster, to give you a future filled with hope.” - Jeremiah 29:11

I’m learning that His timing is better. His plans are better. His will is better. And He’s not done assembling me yet 🙌🏽❤️🙏🏽

Hi 👋🏽🥰 Lots of new faces around here, so Hi 👋🏽🥰 Lots of new faces around here, so I figured it was time for a little reintroduction! Swipe to read more about where I am, who I’m becoming, and what you can expect from me now.

I grew up hiding my faith because I didn’t want to be known as “the church girl.” That left me craving acceptance and validation in other ways. I strayed, but God is gently drawing me back — calling me to live my faith out loud.

Not as a perfect Christian. Just as a mom of 5, still figuring it out.

“Don’t be conformed to the patterns of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your minds…” - Romans‬ ‭12‬:‭2‬ ‭

So this space is shifting a little — you’ll still see family life and mom moments, but you’ll also see more scripture, encouragement, modest fashion that’s anything but boring, and glimpses of what it looks like to live a Christ-centered life in the middle of motherhood.

This will be a space where faith feels normal, motherhood feels seen, and you feel encouraged.

If that sounds like something you need, stick around 🫶🏽 And if you’re a mom learning to anchor in God too, drop a ✝️ so I know I’m not alone. ☺️
