Raising My Tiny Disciples

Enjoying the journey of parenting and life as we know it

  • Round 2 Fight

    Ok first off if you’re here for the mortal combat reference I apologize this has nothing to do with that. It’s just my second post and that’s what my brain was reminded of.

    If I was going to give this one a different name it would be…. “Sunset in the chaos”

    Life with 3 children… 4 years ,2 years and 6 months. It’s beautiful but it is totally nuts! On this particular evening. I took my 6 month old son to the changing table and outside the window I noticed the colors in the sky above the houses. I decided to walk outside and really look at the sunset. In the mist of trying to do showers, brush teeth and bedtime (this can be very much like herding cats) a very brief much needed moment of calm. My husband was inside helping with the dishes. I said honey come here for a minute. So together we stood in our driveway looking at the beautiful sky. I was grateful for that moment to just take a breath. SO if you need a reminder. Here it is!! It doesn’t have to be enjoying a sunset over housetops. Maybe just standing in your living room in the middle of the overwhelm. Remember to stop, take a deep breath and enjoy the moment. This is just a season in life and it is going to go by so fast.

  • Suddenly I’m taken back to Drew Barrymore in “Never Been Kissed” Announcing, “I have no words!” And with all the excitement of the day and finally getting to the point were I actually get to stop and say something and my mind immediately goes blank! But alas here we are. I found some words. Thank God! I’m really excited to have a space here! I’m excited to share my life journey with you, The good… the learning moments and hopefully some funny in there! I could probably sit here all night out of pure joy and excitement and write my life story for you. I won’t do that because I have 3 small humans and a very excited husband who is ready to go to Nascar tomorrow. I think I’ve packed Pajamas so far… oops. So. I should probably go do that and then get some sleep! But I am so so VERY excited to be here with you! And I just had to say HI! Keep Being Amazing! See you again Soon!!!!<3

    Love, Drea
