Thankful for.... yogurt tubes, I buy the kroger brand and throw them in the freezer, such a nice pretend ice cream treat in the evenings after the kids go to bed

Watching --- Scorpion, a new show hubby & I have found and LOVE

Listening to --- Christmas music (duh!!!), podcasts by Jamie Ivey, Steven Furtick or re-listening to service from my own church or Taylor Swift 

Writing --- a whole lot of nothing. I have even fallen out of scripture doodling & realized my chalkboard really likes when I practice more

Stressing over --- This whole being a foster parent thing, some days I worry I'm not helping in the healing. What am I really doing here? And other days I'm just praying I'm helping out & then we have days that it seems we've all melted into this messy little mix

Working on --- my weight. At it again. I guess you could say this also stresses me out. It's a battle. Daily. 

Praying about --- my children. And how to handle the transition that will be happening. How do I prepare them to go back home. How do I prepare my heart & how in the world am I suppose to prepare my children for these two that they love to leave us


It's been hard finding words to write.
Words that I can share to the world.
Because a lot that happens day to day I can't share or I can't find the words to say. Or there are too many words I want to cry, scream or mumble that just can't seem to make sense to anyone but me. 
So currently it is.

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.
