My wheelchair and some of the accessories have arrived. We are going on vacation soon, and the wheelchair will allow me to enjoy theme parks, the aquarium, big museums, and more. If you are wondering why I need a wheelchair, it is because I needed surgery on my right ankle several years ago, and the … Continue reading My Wheelchair Is Here!

Submission is Beautiful
So many people are against submission because feminism and rebelling against the Bible are so popular. Many women who find my Instagram assume I am dumb and abused. When I first married my husband, submission was not a part of my life. My husband even told me he wanted to leave "obey" out of our … Continue reading Submission is Beautiful
Gentle Parenting Sucks
Hear me out. Teaching kids to articulate their feelings is wonderful. But not all feelings deserve validation, and if you really want to prepare your children for the world, you must teach them when their feelings are or are not relevant. Recently I watched a video in which a mother of several children talks about … Continue reading Gentle Parenting Sucks
Stepping Back From the News
I hate stress and love the soft life. Current events stress me out badly because I can see so much wrong being done, and I can't fix it. What will be will be. I can't control the world. I will vote and make a difference where I can, but losing sleep over it just leaves … Continue reading Stepping Back From the News

Embracing Motherhood
Motherhood gets a bad rap in the media, and that's largely because of the way that some mothers talk about it. Before I had my daughter, the picture I had of motherhood was grim. I was told becoming a mother would strip me of my identity. I was told I would never again have time … Continue reading Embracing Motherhood
The Job My Father Missed Out On – a Story About God and Waiting
When I was in 5th grade, my father retired from the military. We lived in a small town I loved, and my friends were there who I wanted to go to middle school with. I was broken hearted about having to leave housing and move. Then my father was told about a job locally that … Continue reading The Job My Father Missed Out On – a Story About God and Waiting
Trying to Get on My Feet
I spent too much time laying down this morning. Mentally I am not great. But I have since gotten back up. I've been cleaning baseboards. To do it, I've been using my orange duster. Honestly the constant bending makes me sore. I want a longer duster that I can stay up right with when I … Continue reading Trying to Get on My Feet

So I just wanted to say hello. I will write more on Tuesday or Wednesday, but today I feel … Continue reading New Post Coming Soon
