I am currently at Walt Disney World and I asked my friend (really more like a sister), Joy, to guest blog! What she shares here is vital so read and share with those you love! Also, go check out her blog at http://www.joybowen.net/! See ya next week! I’m not a runner. Hopefully that doesn’t make you …
Sometimes a book comes a long right when you need it the most. That’s how I feel about Running Like a Girl: Notes on Learning To Run by Alexandra Heminsley. I don’t even know why I bought it – it hadn’t been recommended to me, I hadn’t read about it on a blog or heard …

This will just take a second. And I’m not the first to notice this. My friend, Jen Hatmaker’s (OK so we’re not really friends but she lives in TX and I think we have mutual friends and one time she spoke at our church), iconic viral post from last year says it great. But I’m …
OK, I edited this post to add this video first. Because if you’re struggling with your work/home/life/God’s calling stuff, you should watch this first. I have been a full-time working mom for almost a decade. When I started, my oldest was going into 2nd grade and my twins were just starting kindergarten. I realize many …
