I earned it, right?
As I mentioned, I knew there was another lesson tucked into last week’s planting session. As my daughter and I were planting our flower garden in our front yard, the plants we had bought were being kept in the back. I took my planting tools, and soil to the front with the intention that I’d […]
Don’t stop what you’re doing!
I rarely talk about work, but this was too a poignant lesson not to share. Once a week we have a meeting with our whole team. This is the time where we are briefed about what the whole team needs to know and we do a peer share, of anything that we feel the rest […]
I am really sad!
That was the cry of my daughter for over 20 minutes! As we were in the front yard, I think all my neighbors must have heard. What made her so sad, you might be asking? Here is the backstory. As the weather was nice and we had to plant our flower garden, I figured I’d […]
Choosing to be content
This past week was a rough one. For some reason, my mind wanted me to focus on all the things I don’t have, instead of focusing on how blessed I am. I decided to attend the pity party I was throwing for myself, all week. It wasn’t surprising when by Friday morning, the devotion I […]
I can do all things…
My daughter loves to get new hair styles. I’m still not sure where she gets it from, because I barely like to comb my hair. Shortly after she was born, I cut it low enough so that all I have to do is wash it and go. It’s been one of the best styles I’ve […]
God is consistent
My daughter makes me laugh! This morning as I was driving her to school, she looks at me and says “Mommy, you have a meeting today”. I started laughing as I knew exactly why she was asking. I was wearing makeup and I had explained to her in the past that I typically don’t wear […]
Changing our perspectives
On a recent trip away, we were able to visit a few islands. There was one island that neither my friend nor I had ever been, but my mother had already visited and because of what she had seen on her tour, she had no interest in returning. I think she would have been fine […]
Hearing His voice
I’m rarely away from my daughter and need to call her. As a part of my morning time away on vacation, I left her with my mom in the room. Typically, our other friends call the room to make arrangements for our meeting times. Instead, it was me who called because they took longer […]
It only takes a spark
I had the privilege of watching fireworks recently. Prior to the start of it, there was a lot of build up and excitement. The team presenting waited until the skies were just about pitch black before commencing the festivities. As I watched in awe and amazement, I saw how one little spark created the most […]
Turbulence
My daughter and I were flying recently. The pilot announced that he was going to be turning on the seatbelt sign as he saw some turbulence ahead. We all scurried to buckle our belts, but a few minutes passed and nothing happened and my daughter started getting restless. She wanted to take the seat belt […]
