Kawasaki’s Disease and Aowyn

February 22, 2018 by Finding your joy in the journey

Kawasaki’s Disease and Aowyn

This month Aowyns story of her infant battle with Kawasaki's Disease was featured in Alabama Baby and Child magazine. I realized when I was contacted to share the story with them that I had never actually really shared her story on the blog before. I briefly had talked about it but hadn't gone into great detail. (shortly after being discharged from the hospital) … [Read more...]

The years tell us much that the days never knew

February 3, 2018 by Finding your joy in the journey

The years tell us much that the days never knew

It's hard to believe that time flies by as fast as it does. People always told me "Don't blink. It will be over before you know it." That statement has always overwhelmed me. Being a mom is by the far the most rewarding and difficult thing I have ever done. Sometimes it feels like the day will never be over and other times it feels like it's all just flying by. I heard a quote once that has stuck … [Read more...]

We want our kids to gain something from the wonderful experience but sometimes we struggle to know how. Hopefully our trial and errors over the past decade can help you and your family gain something more from conference weekend. For those of you who are … [Read more...]

The day I failed my daughter

August 23, 2016 by Finding your joy in the journey

The day I failed my daughter

My daughter is my best friend, she is my 4-year-old shadow and my mini mime. She does everything I do and says everything that I say. She knows big words like exceptional and what they mean because she hears me say those kinds of words often. When she was a bit smaller I would catch her out of the corner of my eye watching my every move and copying my actions with the utmost precision, it was the … [Read more...]

Maternity shoot for #5

June 13, 2016 by Finding your joy in the journey

Maternity shoot for #5

One of my very best friends, Amy, is a photographer and a FANTASTIC one at that. I feel so blessed to call her my friend and to be able to go through life's ups and downs with her. She was able to take my maternity pictures with Fynnock and I think they turned out amazing. This pregnancy was hard for my because it was my first pregnancy after getting diagnosed with Graves Disease and gaining 40 … [Read more...]

    Words to live by

    “Give your child a compliment and a hug; say, ‘I love you’ more; always express your thanks. Never let a problem to be solved become more important than a person to be loved. Friends move away, children grow up, loved ones pass on. It’s so easy to take others for granted, until that day when they’re gone from our lives and we are left with feelings of ‘what if’ and ‘if only.’ … “Let us relish life as we live it, find joy in the journey and share our love with friends and family. One day, each of us will run out of tomorrows. Let us not put off what is most important.” - President Thomas S. Monson
