I need grace. I need a heck of a lot of grace, which means, I’ve gotta be willing to give a heck of a lot of grace. . . Grace isn’t just good for the other person. It’s good for us. It’s good for our hearts and our lives and our well-being. It’s good for our peace and our state of mind. . . Grace > Resentment, Anger, Arrogance, Perfection, Judgement and Condemnation

introducing the bend & snap of posing: the head tilt. as seen in every picture of a group of girls. try it at home & for a cheap price of $0.00!! but for reals, I’ll be honest that I really don’t know how to pose or even take photos besides laughing the entire time. I am an awkward turtle and tend to run away from the camera. I think it’s hard for us to see that we are worthy and loved because of all the comparison we do just while scrolling through Instagram and Pinterest. when I look at my own pictures, I’m like nobody wears glasses & doesn’t have to deal with the glare that comes in every photo. ugh my cystic acne is so bad. GUYS MY LOOKS DO NOT DETERMINE WHO I AM AS A PERSON!!! and here’s the thing, would I bring that up to my friends and tell them all of that negative talk!? Heck no!!! so why should I be so mean to myself! for the next 30 days I have joined @jordanleedooley in saying positive things to myself & not criticizing everything I don’t like about myself! So whenever you come across my photos, I want you to know that you are loved. your story is important. you are seen. and you are strong. own who you are & share who you are!!! own your everyday self. post that blurry photo. embrace your awkwardness! give yourself that positive self talk and tell yourself in the mirror that you are loved!! #dailydoseofcolor #theimagined #bekindalways

FORGIVNESS . . It’s an act and it can be simple or VERY complicated. And although I consider myself a person who gives massive grace. I FAIL in this department when the wound is deep and raw. . . And while doing my normal morning routine the car pulled me here and had a conversation with one person no longer with me that is the purest form of love I’ve ever known. . I knew what I had to do. FORGIVE . And not just think it but act on it. . So the meeting was had, the hugs and kisses were exchanged and full forgiveness on both ends was accomplished. . . . . leave nothing unsaid....... . . . . . #mindsetmatters #mindsetcoach #forgiveness #slaysister #feelthefearanddoitanyway #givegrace #grownup #over40influencer #over40 #peaceandlove #beachprayer #beach #maturewomen #mindset

As World MS Day comes to a close I think the most important thing to remember is to ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ BE KIND. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Keeping with the theme of invisible symptoms, we never know what someone else is going through on the inside when they look totally fine on the outside. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Whether that be physical health, mental health or someone just plain having a crappy day. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Give grace to others and don't forget to give yourself grace as well. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Sometimes all you can do is "fake it till you make it" and everyone is fighting battles daily that we may never be aware of. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ XoXo ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ . . . . . . . . #ms #thisisms #strongerthanms #worldmsday #curems #mswarrior #bekind #targetstyle #smyelin #keepsmyelin #givegrace #multiplesclerosis #msawareness #spreadingorange #mentalhealth #mentalhealthawareness #invisibleillness #buzzcut #buzzcutgrowout #buzzcutgirl

A letter to my boys. My miracles. My #GiveGrace babies. My living, breathing reminders of hope. May you always know how deeply you are loved and how incredibly hard you were fought and prayed for. Thank you to @baileyhartcreative for this gem, @koraldean for the idea & @kristenmdixon for editing the script.

Just because we have them doesn’t mean we don’t miss you. Ever since I’ve been traveling to and from the hospital, SJ’s separation anxiety has really ramped up. But yesterday, she went in the stroller without a fuss to go on a walk around the neighborhood. With Fancy situated in the basket below, I hit play as worship music started softly filling my ears. No distractions. No hospital monitors beeping. No baby clawing at my neck as I say goodbye to drive two hours to sit with my other sick baby. Just me, with ample time to worship, pray, and find solitude. And as I began to worship my King, an ache I know all too well came out of nowhere, blindsiding me. This ache so deep and debilitating I can feel it down in my bones. I didn’t know whether to start jogging or just stop and sit in the street and cry. Grief does that to you - leaving you feeling helpless with the need to retreat and run away all at the same time. And the tears that always seem to accompany this ache began to trickle down. Mother’s Day has always been a holiday that has marked me. The past three years I have held babies in my womb, only to hold one of them in my arms. And I know there are way too many moms in this world who know this deep ache. I usually roll out content and write like a mad woman because I don’t want that mom, the one with the deep ache of missing her child, to feel alone. I don’t want her to feel like God has forgotten her, or doesn’t see her, or doesn’t understand. I want her to feel the unrelenting love of God, that there is purpose in her pain, and the hope of Heaven that is coming ever so soon. But some weeks, I am that grieving mom. The mom that needs to be reminded of what my spirit knows and not what my emotions tell me. A mom that misses her baby, but knows God’s not finished yet. And so I don’t have much to offer you this week, especially as I’m sorting through my own aches of grief, but just know if you’re a grieving mama this Mother’s Day, I see you, I feel you, and you are not alone. Don’t forget the moms that are missing their littles. No kid replaces the next. And just because we have others doesn’t mean we don’t miss them. Stay strong Mama, Heaven is coming.

Failed: Quinn’s Halloween costume was canceled two days before Halloween due to over promised items. We never made it to the pumpkin patch this year. We didn’t even buy a pumpkin at the store or carve any. I ate all of the Halloween candy a week before Halloween and had to get not so great candy at 4:30 on Halloween. I ate most of that too. I gained 10 lbs in two weeks. We did not have a “cute” Halloween this year. Or do a lot of the fun fall things I thought we would do. But my other kids had fun with their friends and candy. And Quinn and I stayed home sharing a tiny witch hat and handing out candy (take a handful, take even more PLEASE! Kids love it, but they are really saving me.). Some years I provide the best experiences for my kiddos. And some years are just mediocre at best. I’m good with both scenarios but sometimes mama guilt creeps in that I didn’t do enough for my littles. I have to gently remind myself that it’s okay to not be all things all of the times. Was Quinn was about her costume? No, she’s a one year old baby. My kids are loved, safe, clean(ish), taken care of and everything else is extra bonus goodness. Some days I’ll get to give them that, some days I won’t. I just need to give myself grace and not feel the pressures to do all the things all the time, especially when I look on Social Media and see the reminder of what I could have been doing for my kids but I didn’t The kids are alright, be kind to my mama heart I tell myself. It’s doing it’s best❤️ Carry on and eat some candy. Cell phone pic bad quality but adorable bebe.
