  • Our Little Tot is 2!

    “Push, push” those were the two words that I heard almost everybody in the delivery room told me to do two years ago. That year the Lord gifted us with such a tremendous blessing—the birth of our daughter, Bethany. Today she turned two years of age. Just like that. She’s officially two. Since January she’s…

  • The Top 12 Items Infants Need

    What does an infant need? If you go online and to the stores you’d see a long list of infant needs. It can be overwhelming. As a first time parent, I struggled putting a list together of what my baby would possibly need when she comes out of the womb. To help our new mommas…

  • “Mama, mask.”

    Who would’ve thought that the arrival of C-19 in our world’s history would’ve changed our lives so drastically?

Bethany and I ended up spending the day yesterday outdoors because her dada had to film six Bible studies in his office, God-provided office. We brought our camping chairs, camping bed, toys, and food out, and we had a blast! We walked and…

  • The Source of My Strength

    Confession 101 here: Being a mom requires a lot of strength. From the moment we wake up we just go, go, go especially when our children wake up earlier than us or than expected. This week, little Bethany has been waking up at either 5-ish or 6-ish am and that is not cool because it…

  • Flying with an Infant

    How do we go from Oregon to Washington, DC this summer? That was our biggest question since our little girl was born. Do we drive, take the train or fly? For two summers we’ve been driving across the US for weeks, enjoying our road trips but this time we were somehow hesitant to do that.…
