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.
I love that all of your kiddos are in this one! And I think it would be so fun to go to Greece sometime too. And how sweet that she wants to go to Paris!
ReplyDeleteShe started this Paris thing a few months ago and has not let up about it, would be so wonderful if I could take her one day
DeleteThe "kids behind the blog" are adorable! And food can either be one of the best things about travel or the worst thing, that's for sure!
ReplyDeleteTell your daughter Paris is definitely fun! & I love that your kids joined in your video!
ReplyDeleteI would love to visit Greece. It looks so picturesque and I think you have the perfect method of visiting it: you, your camera, and lots of coffee! And, oh, sister, a trip to Africa will MESS. YOU. UP. but I so recommend it. I pray the Lord will lead you to that opportunity one day soon!
Well I've been messed up by foster care, might as well continue that way ;) I definitely plan to be there one day.
DeleteCome to Nigeria, Katie!
ReplyDeleteP.S the faces your boy was making behind you? Precious :')
Oh girl I'd love to, hopefully one day!

DeleteParis sounds perfect.
ReplyDeleteI completely forgot about the trip I made to Arizona about nine years ago. I don't know how I did, considering it was one of my favourites. That state is brimming with beauty. No wonder you love it, too!
