I’ve been able to work on some fun projects over the last few months, so I thought I’d share a few, and also an exciting one in the works! I did this custom print for an adoptive family. The quote is by Fleur Conkling Heyliger. Our church’s women’s retreat this year was about being “fearfully and wonderfully made.” I created this image for our materials and promotions. Friends of my sisters in Emerald Isle, NC are starting a...
Hi friends! I have another memory verse printable coloring page for you! You can see them all here. You can ask your kids (or adults!) a few questions about this verse: What’s required of us to become children of God?

As I wrote last week, I struggle with all kinds of fears. I think the above verse digs a little deeper into our hearts and...
My middle daughter has had stitches to her cheek from a fall into an open dresser drawer, a chipped a tooth, and a staple to her head from spinning into the coffee table–all in the last year. Now, every bump and cry makes my heart jump. Last week she ran out alone across a parking lot, ignoring our instructions to stop. No cars were coming but I relived that scene over later, thinking of the big truck that may...
