Vague Words

Why vague --- because the details are not necessary

Woah!!!
Life has been a whirlwind.
You know all those pre-licensing classes you have to take --- ummm they sort of actually don't prepare you as much as I thought they would.
Listening to all the stories, especially the horror stories, would have been a good idea.
Knowing Jesus has my hand through it all slightly makes me angry why we are here, yet so comforting to know His plans far outweigh anything I could think or imagine.
I never knew how deeply Doug and I would lean on each other, and make sure emotionally & mentally we are ok like we do now.

I am so thankful for all the encouragement and prayers we have received because they are so needed and are honey to our souls.

I have had to learn to live with a messy home. I mean, before I wasn't satisfied...but now, well my poor little idea of the cleaning schedule has been thrown right out the window. I know in time things will adjust easier, but for now, there will be popcorn kernels on the floor, mulch all over the kitchen floor & stinky bathrooms {I mean seriously, 3 little boys are just disgusting!}


As of now...this song



is what I'm clinging to.

PS -- working with awesome people who love their job is not just a bonus, but how we have kept on keeping on.

We are on survive mode///
Keep the prayers & words of encouragement coming as we walk through this storm.

Hello if you don't know me I'm Katie I {obviously} blog here and you can find my instagram & twitter ---> Two things in my bag: 1. My cute little notebooks I found at Target and a variety of pens. I love pens. No seriously, you should see my pen + sharpie box.  2. My phone. I am a HUGE picture taker. I love taking pictures and using all the fun picture apps and posting pictures. If you love taking pictures come find me, we can have some instagram fun!!!  Two things I'm looking forward to: 1. Hugs & coffee with friends. Friends I've never technically met. Friends that I will never forget, that will be hard to leave, that just get me. 2. Learning. Learning more about who I am. About the amazing way God created me as a woman. Learning from all these wise women that live with realness and grace. Being filled with His word. See you in 2-ish weeks!!!

Winter

Winter. It's cold. And in Ohio, so dreary. Lacking of the sun. Or the ability to play outside and feel the warmth on your skin. Days stuck inside. And it all starts to weigh heavy. My spirit goes down the drain. The heaviness on my shoulders & in my heart seems to be slowly crushing me. But I won't stop the struggle. I won't give up & let it eat me alive. The panic attacks that leave me breathless. The numbness. And then the crying. It will all pass. It always passes. But in the middle when the struggle is real I'm thankful for people who speak life into me, God's closeness, being able to receive that warm blanket of His word, hot coffee & making out with my husband, hey, let's get real, making out helps.
