Faith & Hope, Parenting after Loss
For many of us, this Christmas season will be harder than ever. Perhaps you lost a parent or a child or another loved one this year (to Covid or to another cause). Or perhaps you were laid off recently. Or you just received a scary diagnosis. Or maybe it’s the fact that because of Covid you can’t see your loved …
Faith & Hope
I am so excited today to share this beautiful guest post by my sweet friend Mandy Johnson! With Thanksgiving right around the corner (can you even believe it??), I asked Mandy to share a post on gratitude. I love what she wrote! It’s a great reminder to all of us in this season! “What is God’s will for us?” Often …
Fostercare & Adoption
I always knew I wanted to adopt. Even as a little girl, I would tell my mom that one day I would adopt. I didn’t know anyone who was adopted, but I absolutely believe God put that desire to adopt on my heart at a young age! Once Mace and I got married in 2010 we both thought that we …
Faith & Hope
Social media right now is blowing up with posts about the election. The news is a constant stream of updates and new predictions about this state or that state. And I know it’s only going to get more intense as the polls close and votes are counted. I don’t want to add to the noise so today’s post is short. …
Infant Loss

In honor of Pregnancy and Infant Loss Awareness Month, I asked Jessica to share her story on my blog.

Infant Loss
I was talking with a friend recently about how hard it is to know what to say after a mom or dad loses their baby. This topic is one I’ve talked about many times with friends over the years as they’ve tried to better understand how to support their loved ones experiencing the tragedy of loss. I’ve written before about …
Infant Loss
In honor of Pregnancy and Infant Loss Awareness Month, this post today is dedicated to all of the mommas and daddies who have lost a child, whether from miscarriage, stillbirth, or infant loss. If you have experienced pregnancy and/or infant loss, my hope and prayer is that these words encourage and comfort your heart today. I’m not sure how long …
Infant Loss
“Lord, we don’t understand this, but we just ask that in some way you would be glorified through our baby’s life.” I didn’t have words to say, but the Lord gave Mace these words to pray after the doctor told us our daughter Hannah Grace who I was 11 weeks pregnant with was incompatible with life. (If you missed the …
Infant Loss
Do you have an event in your life that split your life into two parts–your life before that event happened and your life after that event happened? It could be the death of a loved one, a diagnosis you received, or any other event that drastically altered your life. If you have an event like that, you now see your …
Faith & Hope
This is not the post I had planned on writing today. But honestly, I just couldn’t write that other post today. My heart is too burdened right now as I’ve watched the flood waters rise in parts of my hometown of Houston. While it’s too early to tell what kind of damage will be done to Southeast Texas and Louisiana …
