We’ve created a pretty simple life. Most of the time, it’s just us. Just us four. Me, Kevin, Leala and Evan. My Family. ♥
I’m worried about my mom. I don’t know where we stand right now. Communication has been shut down by my dad. I’m giving grace and space. But I want answers. She’s my mom. Last I was told was that she’d have the rescheduled MRI yesterday and then get results and a game-plan on Thursday. I don’t know if that’s even true anymore. I don’t know what to...
For our anniversary last year, we took a short trip to Port Aransas, Texas for the first time. We stayed at the beautiful Sandcastle Condos. The place is magical. The beach. The people. The small community. I fell in love. I have literally never felt like that about any other place I have been. We only stayed a few days, but I knew even after such a short time there, Port Aransas had...
There’s nothing like flipping the page of the calendar to the month of September to rev up my yearning for fall. It’s like the flip of a switch.

I’m woken by nightmares more days than I’m not. Evacuations...
August 29, 2017 We have power. Electricity is on at our apartments. Some of the town is still in the dark. They still say by Saturday, 95% of the town will have power. Tina confirms that stores are getting more supplies in and that the area is safe for children. We will be going home tomorrow. I’m excited to get back, but I’m afraid of what we might find. What if the yoga mat...
My beautiful friend, Megan of Your Spirit Sparkle and Peace in My Mind posted this message in her Facebook group this morning: “This is a world of paradoxes.
