Welcome March!!!

I  GOT A BLOG MAKEOVER AND A I LOVE IT :) 

I am so excited that it is March.. and a perk of being a Teacher we have Spring Break in 2 weeks and we are heading down to 30A in Destin, FL and I am so excited because I love 30A so much. All the little communities are so cute and I hope Lily Jane will love it as much as her mommy.

This weekend was Rainy and cold :( but was able to hang out with my sweet friends and Lily Jane was having fun playing with all the kids. I love that my group of friends are starting to have kids and we are growing!!! Love it so much….. 









I read a daily devotion every morning and this morning it is just what i needed. I read Proverbs 31 and Love it 

The title of todays message was There's No Such Thing as a Perfect Mommy. I feel like we are always judging ourselves and never feel like we have done enough so I was so happy to read this and have a good daily remember we don't need to be perfect.. 
"Her children arise and call her blessed;" Proverbs 31:28a (NIV)

All of us have made mistakes or endured hardships in life, but we don’t have to let our past become a stumbling block for our future or impact the futures of our children. God has called us all to a divine purpose in this life, and sometimes the highest, most divine calling of all, is being a mom.
Not a perfect mom, but a mom who loves the Lord, and seeks grace when she stumbles and strength when she’s weary. A mom who pushes past her lack of confidence and regrets from the past, and allows God to use those experiences to shape her into a faith role model for her kids.
A mom who simply tries her best, while remembering she has a God who will guide her through each season of parenting, one imperfect day after another. A mom who loves her children enough to teach them to love Him too, even in the midst of her own short-comings.
And one day, those sweet babies just might rise up and call us blessed, simply because we built a legacy of faith and love. Then every prayer for grace, mercy, forgiveness, patience and perseverance will be well worth the wait.


HAPPY MONDAY!!!

  10. Your blog makeover looks so good! Yay for Spring Break! Ours isn't until the first week of April but it feels manageable - we had a lot of time off because of snow over the last few weeks. Come on, Spring Break!
