Dear Mama, You Simply Want to Enjoy Your Lovelies, Right?
Have you ever said to yourself, "I just want to enjoy these children that I prayed for! This is the exact life I prayed for so why am I so frustrated all the time? UGH! Why does it have to be so hard?" I want you to know that I see you and hear you, [...]

Have you ever wished you had someone who would listen? Someone who would be, not on your side, but on your team?

On the 11th Day of Christmas!
On the 11th Day of Christmas... LOVE lets everyone else be... One of the most profound things I learned from my own coach is the truth that EXPECTATIONS are just pre-meditated RESENTMENTS!

On the 3rd Day of Christmas!
On the 3rd Day of Christmas... Forgive. Don't bring "un-forgiveness" into the season. It will only rob you of your peace. "But you don't know what they did!" Doesn't matter. "But isn't that letting them "off the hook?" Is it? Perhaps it's letting YOU off the hook. From the pain in your heart that YOU [...]
