Big picture

It's about to get super Jesus-y here & I couldn't be more elated to share.
Yesterday I was on the way to take Alex & Olivia to school and 3 lights went off in my beast to say something wasn't right. I couldn't go faster than 35-40 and going slow made it feel like I was going to stall. I kept thinking I just need to get the kids to school and home. I did make it home and I was scared outta my mind. My husband made the appointment to get the car in today but I had to take it because you know he has to go to a job + he had a microsoft {don't ask me to explain I don't know, but it's a BIG deal} test to take. The last one to get a special certification thingy. [I'm so winning at wife life right now] 

My friend said she was going to follow me there, it was the she was going to do it, I had no say. To take it extra safe we put Addie in her car, just in case. I had been praying, she was praying, some of my twitter friends were praying. I had huge knots in my stomach all morning imagining driving again with it not wanting to actually go and the feeling it was just going to quit all together.

and let me tell you OUR GOD SURROUNDED MY CAR. I mean seriously. I could feel His presence all around. The car drove to the shop just fine. The shop is about 30 minutes away and the whole thought just terrified me, but guys God does care about these things. These things that can seem so itty bitty in the big picture, because to me this morning this was a big part of my picture.

.....now is just the waiting to see what the heck is going on....

Getting all Jesus-y is so good, don't you agree?!!

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.
