Happy Birthday, Mom!

You’ve always taught us to be strong, independent, and self sufficient!  How to love hard and be a little scrappy to make the best out of all things...but this year, you showed us what that REALLY meant!!  I love you and I’m so proud to say that you are my Mom. I’m so in awe of how you’ve fought to give Glory and praise to God and to see His beauty in all things!! I love you, Mom and I’ve never fully appreciated what spending another birthday with you (even from afar) meant to me until this one! 💗

HAPPY BIRTHDAY, MOM!!!!

Most gladly, therefore, I will rather boast about my weaknesses, so that the power of Christ may dwell in me. Therefore I am well content with weaknesses, with insults, with distresses, with persecutions, with difficulties, for Chri...

As I sit here reading "The Happiness Project," I am so overwhelmed by just how much I needed this book. Have any of you read this book?! What did you think of it? Posted by Allison Valree Federico on  Tuesday, November 1, 2016 When I sat down to begin reading, I heard the kids playing upstairs...and I was worried about it.... "What is my son getting into now?" (It's always, always always something!) "Are they going to get hurt?" "What if a neighbor stops by and realizes that I'm letting my kids play without helicoptering them? What will she think?" But the truth of the matter is, she is almost 5 and he is 2, and really they can play alone for 10 minutes while I read, and (as long as they don't burn the house down), most messes will be cleanable.... But the point is, I started out with the wrong mindset to begin! Just 5 minutes into my reading, I already see that! My kids are LAUGHING. And having FUN tog...
