Started my birthday off with my girl Bebe at @blashedbbb and then a fun photo shoot with the talented and precious @meganmweaver ! Now I’m headed off to lunch with my guy! Watch my Story to see where we’re going! .
I can’t imagine any better birthday dress than this soft and swingy little number from my pals @marleylilly ! It’s monogrammed free, under $25, and perfect for fall. Be sure to follow me on the @liketoknow.it app so you don’t miss any of my looks (including this one!) http://liketk.it/2E7MB #ad #marleylilly #liketkit #emptynestblessed

I came across some fantastic clearance buys this weekend from @sophieandtrey! This #miaomiao romper was less than $10 and was the perfect look for an evening out! My other finds are for cooler days...so I might need to wait a while to show those off! #sophieandtrey #4thandocean #tria #bargainshopper #clearancefinds #romperseason
☀️THIS little cutie pie had the nerve to grow up! And now she's off at college, training with her volleyball team at WOFFORD, and doing a young person's version of adulting. What the what They say the days are slow, but the years are fast. True. True. True.

So, HELLO empty nest. You sure do come with complicated feelings. And you're pretty bossy too... demanding that Brad and I release the three incredible humans we've had the honor to raise into a world that doesn't love them like we do. (And what do you mean Brad and I can't move into an adjoining room in Kennedy's dorm?)
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Times and feelings like these help me appreciate the fact that I know a few things about God and His goodness. I know that He loves Preston, Hunter and Kennedy even more than Brad and I (which seems absurd). ♀️ I know that my children will make mistakes along the way (just like me), but they can never wander to a place where they aren't seen, known or loved by HIM. I know that when they are hurt, scared, frustrated or confused, Jesus is just a whisper away. I know that Brad and I have done everything we could to prepare our Smith crew to fly... and I know that their wings are strong for flight.
.
So off you go, @kennedysmithhh ! Babygirl is all grown up and your momma couldn't be more proud of you.
.
✨ Our fun isn't over. In many ways, it's just beginning. I've loved watching you blossom into the incredible, smart, fun, determined, hard working, compassionate young woman you are, and I look forward to watching the wonderful ways the LORD will continue to lead you down paths of potential for HIS name sake.
.
You are deeply loved and fully ready. ♀️ Fly on, babygirl. Fly on. I believe in you and can't wait to watch you spread your wings.
