Friday Faves

I always love when a friend shares something they love. I enjoy hearing about what friends are reading, what apps they are using, and what podcasts they are listening to. I listen to a podcast (I'll mention it in my faves list) where she asks her guests three things they are loving and three things they are reading. I thought it would be fun if I followed this format and share my reads and loves. I would love for anyone who is loving something right now to post in the comments or on social media. So, here we go...

Things I am reading:

Loving My Actual Life by Alexandra Kuykendall
**This book set off my summer of reset refocusing my attention to what matters to me and what I want my life to look like.
Present Over Perfect by Shauna Niequest
**This book is a breath of fresh air; to be empowered to remove the busy title and reestablish rest in our lives.
Giddy Up Eunice by Sophie Hudson
**Sophie Hudson is the author of the BooMama blog and is absolutely hilarious. Her reads are fun. This book reminds us ladies that we need each other and the need for relationships with other women of all ages. She uses stories of ladies in the Bible to open our eyes to the blessings that lie in relationships between women.


Things I am loving:

The Happy Hour with Jamie Ivey
**Jamie speaks with ladies who work in various fields talking about their passions and every day life. It's like two girlfriends chatting over coffee. Refreshing, inspiring, and fun.
IF:Gathering App
**I am a HUGE fan of the IF:Gathering ministry that Jennie Allen founded. This app is easy to use and has lessons that are quick and easy to follow.

Live Simply
Love Generously
Learn Constantly

Love & Blessings,
Meg

Our Miracle

"He performs wonders that cannot be fathomed, miracles that cannot be counted." Job 9:10 "You are the God who performs miracles; You will display Your power among the peoples." Psalm 77:14 Meet our miracle...and our secret. Yes, it is true. I am pregnant; about twelve weeks and a few days to be exact. We wanted to make sure this baby was healthy before announcing how great God has been to us! We have known about this precious little blessing for a little over two months and have eagerly awaited numerous sonogram and test results. We have witnessed God's mighty, yet gentle, hand every Tuesday for the past five weeks. This baby is a fighter. However, the road is not "clear" quite yet. We met with the pareanatoligist today to do a sonogram and blood test to determine if there are any chromosomal abnormalities; specifically Downs, and Trisomy 13 and 18. Although the sonogram looked great and the doctor said we were in the "safe zone," we are stil

Don't Lose You

When Jackson was a baby, I would hop into my car on my lunch break and rush to his day care to see him. I had thirty minutes with my baby and I needed every last second. I was a mess of a new mom and had a really hard time leaving him everyday. I was caught in the conundrum of loving teaching with all that I was and loving being a mom desperately wanting to stay home. I established a neat relationship with Jack's care-takers. They were a little older than me and much wiser. They will never fully know how appreciative I am for their advice and comfort during those beginning moments as a mama. When I decided to leave my teaching career and move halfway across the country to do so, they gave me a piece of advice that I didn't take seriously initially but now hold dear. They told me I had to find something for me. They watched me finish my master's that year and knew I was the type that needed to be doing. They recognized that I was about to enter a season where I had to hold

Monday Musings~You have been called...

"For you created my inmost being; you knit me together in my mother's womb. I praise you because I am fearfully and wonderfully made; your works are wonderful, I know that full well." Psalm 139:13-14 ...to pray. Meet our newest addition; baby Fish. I am officially 8 weeks four days pregnant! PRAISE GOD!!!! We saw our precious miracle today for the second time; heart flickering away on the monitor with little arm and leg buds beginning to form. The doctor gave us a great report telling us that everything looks perfect...can't get any better than that. God is so good to us. We are blessed beyond belief to experience the miracle of life once again. Please pray for our growing family and our precious growing angel. We feel the presence of God daily and welcome and need your prayers.
