Last week we woke up to a winter wonderland! It was memorizing, and this is coming from a gal who doesn’t really like snow. Every year I try to play in the snow with my children. I want them to have memories of me sledding with them, building snow men, etc. So, this year was […]
Psalm 51:17 “I learned God worship when my pride was shattered. Heart-shattered lives ready for love don’t for a moment escape God’s notice.” Excuse me while I step out of this whirlwind I have suddenly found myself residing. I feel as though I missed the memo…you know the one that says, “Haha sucker! Try again […]
There is a place I have not seen with my eyes, but I know its existence well. I know because His hand gently guides me there when I am overwhelmed. I have heard numerous times, “God will not give you more than you can handle”. And yet, if we could handle on our own all […]
There we were pulling up to Duke Hospital. While we sat at the stop light I looked at the enormity of the structure before us. The view was different for me this time as I was a passenger going to my one year check up. I never entered the actual hospital through the front doors. […]
So, today I turn 39. I keep hearing, “One more year and you are over the hill.” In some ways, I am pretty sure I rolled over that hill already. Last night at 7:00 I asked Trey if he would please go to store and buy me a puzzle. I wanted to do a puzzle […]
Many of us in the POTS community have shared stories, posted websites, and pictures hoping to raise awareness during the month of October(the above picture is me sitting outside so I can watch my daughter play. Yes, I have to use an umbrella to shield the sun and wear compression hose. But that’s ok). Knowing […]
Does anyone else feel like they are in a holding pattern? I mean sure I get it, there will always be uncertainties in life. I understand we have limited comprehension because we are human. I get it already! But, oh the waiting process can be so frustrating leaving us feeling completely out of sorts if […]
Look at that precious child! She is a dancing princess! Wearing her tiara, fur coat, pigtails, pink boots, and princess dress…she is ready to party! I may be partial to the cuteness as she is my daughter, but she has taught me so much about living life. This child knows how to enjoy each moment. […]
It was brought to my attention that October is POTS Awareness Month. I have wanted to do a post on POTS, but honestly it seems overwhelming to try to condense POTS into one blog post. The confusion that surrounds the syndrome, along with the vague understanding by the medical community makes a concise explanation impossible. […]
“If your heart is broken, you’ll find God right there; if you’re kicked in the gut, he’ll help you catch your breath.” Psalms 34:18 If your week has looked anything like mine, the above photo accurately depicts how you feel right now. Some weeks are just hard. It’s just life and usually I take this […]
