Step 2: Reflect

I am going to use this entry to share my experience as a parent. This may differ from some others but I believe there are a lot of parents in similar boats so this post will either provide you with some understanding or you’ll find comfort in knowing you are not alone.  I have had…

Step 1: Share

Today I had someone reach out to me via Facebook to ask me if I am ok and to offer prayer for me, simply because of a scenic photo I shared with a two line description about it being a tough couple of weeks. We do not know each other personally but we follow along…

A New Journey

How does a year go by so quick? I cannot believe we have been living in Kitimat as a family for over twelve months. Some months were slow but others flew right by. I was warned, boy I was warned, that the weather can get to you out here. I didn’t believe it! Initially I…

summer update

We just passed our four months officially living in Kitimat! I planned on blogging more once I got here but I share so many pictures on social media I feel people know what’s happening in our world without a blog. But lately I had a couple comments that make me think it’s time to provide…

Dear Daughter

I have so many thoughts this week I don’t even know where to start so I thought I would just get them all out and try to sort through them. Excitement - I am so excited for you little girl. I am excited that you are ready to take this big step and start kindergarten.…

Missed Miscarriage Continued

Thank you to everyone who reached out following my miscarriage blog. I greatly appreciate all of you who took that time to send me your love, good wishes and especially those that shared your experiences. Listening to other women telling me their stories actually helped me, I had someone I could ask questions when I…

Entitlement

As promised, I had an idea for a blog the last time I wrote. Entitlement. Maybe it’s just me, but in my eyes, society has changed so much where people were once respectful to one another and worked to earn respect, to somehow now feeling they are deserving of special treatment or privileges, for literally…
