Wait! I’m Still Preparing Lunch
I was making my kids peanut butter sandwiches while the girls played at the table on Friday. I was taking my time, since I knew the boys still needed to wrap up their schoolwork. I had six pieces of bread laid out with a peanut butter spread over them… and out of...
Christian Parallels in The Land Before Time
Up next on Christian Parallels in the movies is “The Land Before Time.” I remember watching this movie as a kid and balling my eyes out every time… Well guys, watching the movie as an adult with my six children… I still cried… maybe even harder. Movie Recap The movie...
Pinocchio: Which Character Are You?
The next movie that was put on my heart for Christian Parallels in the movies is "Pinocchio." Now let me start by saying, I had never seen this 1940s Disney classic until this movie was put on my heart. But as I watched it, I quickly saw why God directed me to this...

Don’t Stop Growing
It’s finally autumn! I love fall. It’s seriously one of my favorite seasons. Hoodie and jeans weather! Fire-pits and hot apple cider! Pumpkin pie versus apple pie! Seriously, I love this season! But…Nothing tells you that your children are growing like the start of a...
Blind Spot
Ok-parents of multiple littles. Have you ever been walking around a store, a park, the zoo, a museum, a radom parking lot... ok-pretty much anywhere... counted your children, and said, “____, where are you?” And then a little voice, from quite literally right next to...
