A year to date I was being wheeled back into surgery after being diagnosed with stage three/four endometriosis. I had all the emotions as I lay in my bed hooked up to the IV, staring at the white curtains around me. Fear, peace, anxiety…but mostly I felt hope. Hope that maybe after all those years […]

Over the last two years I’ve experienced a depth of abundant blessing in sharing our journey with you. I’ve seen God weave people (and their stories) into our own in such personal ways and with a richness I believe wouldn’t be there if vulnerability wasn’t present first.  Don’t get me wrong, I believe there’s a […]

We get questions all the time about our adoption experience and we love answering them–but more than that, we love that God is continuing to use our story to not only remind ourselves of who is He and what He’s done, but to help shape others’ stories along the way. I recall to mind often […]

I’ve started writing this more times that I can remember. I’d begin, write, re-write…and then feel this overwhelming sense of inadequacy in retelling the incredible workings of our God…then stop. But I know a few things so deeply inside of me. I know that our stories must be told. Because here’s the thing. When our […]

I love the space between the end of a year and the beginning of the next. It’s like this tiny breath of remembering what was and anticipating what will be. Each year has looked so vastly different, but the common strand connecting them all are the whispers of thankfulness to the Lord during these moments […]
