As we were packing for this trip, I wondered how I convinced Will it was a good idea to fly to Florida with two kids when I’m not very good at flying and we usually stuff our entire car full for a day trip… but somehow it happened and we found ourselves walking into the […]

After a hard week with a lot of moodiness and behavior problems, I was sitting in the living room and Sonya was playing in her room. I could hear her singing “Lord I need You” over and over. Then she walked into the living room with tears streaming down her face and just said, “Mom, […]

I don’t really understand how it felt like I was pregnant for an eternity and then I blinked and have a nine month old… but here we are. Sawyer James is the biggest blessing. He is still so happy and snuggly and brings so much joy to our life. His favorite things are still his […]

I loved getting to know her and enjoyed this senior session SO much! Since my seniors can choose to have a traditional session […]
