We never thought this day would come. Like, ever. — I have struggled with PCOS my whole life, and with so many ruptured cysts over the years, we thought I might have trouble getting pregnant. And well, we did. 5 years of marriage later and with no pregnancies in site, we had decided that maybe […]
Little guy, as you grow inside my belly each day, you hold my thoughts captive. When I wake up (if I sleep at all) I think of you. When I work, I think of you. When I laugh with your father, I think of you. I think of all the ways I could fail you. […]
I’ve had so many of you lovely folks requesting photos of our nursery and for some reason, my huge belly as well.. 😉 It makes me so happy to know that so many friends and family already love little Glass and want to follow along in his life journey. While the nursery has been all […]
Hey friends! Today we have a guest post on our Food for Thought series, coming from a long-time friend/new full-time co-worker of ours, Jess Janicki.

Oh it’s you! My fellow “I eat a specific diet” friends! My Gluten Free friends. My Vegetarian and Vegan friends. My Diabetic friends. My Allergy-list-a-mile-long friends. I’ve not been vegetarian for long, just 5 years this March. When not pregnant, I also try to stay away from dairy and eggs (not quite vegan though). I have […]

I’m 6.5 months pregnant now and my feet look like they belong to the body of a sumo-wrestler. I’m sitting here in Miami at the church partner we’re working with. They have a nice little house church – complete with A/C and fans! The team is going on their 5th hour of ministry today, with […]
Earlier, I shared some of the videos I took for Bethany while in country this summer. Continuing that thought, I wanted to share some of my favorite pictures from the summer. A lot of these pictures are me with our PPM staff, a group of people who worked endlessly alongside me throughout the summer. When you […]
As I shared in a recent post, I stayed home here in Arkansas for the majority of the summer, while Eric served in Haiti. Here is the post I shared about Christ’s plan for the everyday in my life during the summer – and how I would tackle it. After posting this I received so many […]
For me, this past summer in Haiti was unique in one huge way: it was my first trip to Haiti without Bethany.
