Who I Am

I am a happily married mother of two young boys. Two very energetic, adorable boys.

I love to blog.

If I could listen to music 24 hours a day, I would.

I'm addicted to photography. I finally decided to put my addiction to good use and opened my photography business, A Moment's Grace Photography.

I realize every blog is supposed to have a niche. I wish I could tell you that you'll find a certain theme on mine - recipes, reviews, contests, coupons, etc....but you won't. You'll find all of that and more. There will be humor, sarcasm, tears and squeals of joy - sometimes all at once. But always know that it's real and from my heart.

I blog for my own sanity and appreciate any and all friends I've met along the way. I'm thankful for feedback, advice and most of all your support. I will always try to do my best to return the favor.

So poke around. Read a few posts. And by all means, please introduce yourself :)

So Very Thankful

I am thankful for small mercies. I compared notes with one of my friends who expects everything of the universe, and is disappoint ed when anything is less than best, and I found that I begin at the other extreme, expecting nothing, and am always full of thanks for moderate goods. – Ralph Waldo Emerson

 

Life is hard.

There are days we wonder how we’ll ever get through.

There are moments we are certain we can’t overcome.

But just when we think we’ve reached our breaking point, we far surpass any limits we thought we had and we wonder why we ever doubted ourselves.

 

Too often we focus on all the things we didn’t get done, or the accomplishments we didn’t achieve that we forget to focus on those things that matter – like our health, our freedom, and our families. This past week I have been reminded once again how precious life is, and how quickly it can be taken away. Today I am making a choice to not only be thankful for the things I have, but to stop and appreciate them as well. I will not focus on the things I have not yet done, but rather take pride in those things I have accomplished so far. I will not take for granted my food, my home, my power, my health, my spouse or my precious children. I will give thanks for those things and so many more – because I am so very, very, very grateful for all that I have.

 

Happy Thanksgiving

NC State Fair

We debated on going. Ethan is too small for many of the bigger rides, too big to want to ride the baby rides. Lucas is barely big enough to ride the baby rides, but I’m far too big to ride the baby rides with him. All that drama on [...]

TEN Years (Take 2)

 

Let me just preface this post with this – yes, it’s a repeat. After a little over a week of blog issues, hosting mix-ups and me just being too busy to deal with it all, my blog is finally back up – but not without the sacrifice of [...]

First Grade, Buzz Lightyear, Growth and Us

I just realized that it’s been a whole month since I posted here – seems crazy when it wasn’t that long ago and I tried to post every few days. But, it’s okay. I’ve learned to let go of somethings, and press forward with others and the change? It’s [...]

Birthday Parties: How Much to Spend and When to Say No

I was never very popular in school. Blame it on my overprotective mother, my introvert coverup, or my lack of coolness – whatever you want – but I wasn’t. I had friends, but I wasn’t “popular” by any standard definition. So while I had my fair share of birthday [...]
