My kid slept 8 hours last night! Granted, he went to bed at 7 pm and I went to bed around 10:30 pm so I didn’t get 8 hours but 4.5 is a big improvement! Thank you for your prayers and your words. The best part about this blogging challenge has been hearing from so…

First Foods
One of my most favorite things about my babies is feeding them their first foods. It really is the best. They are so cute as they experience tasting something different for the first time. The faces they make, some of enjoyment and delight, others of shock and disgust! They are just so sweet and innocent…
Confession: Sometimes I Miss My Job
So you probably know that I am a stay at home mom now. After LucyKate was born I stopped working full-time and went extremely part-time, only working 10 hours a week. It was an awesome gig and I am thankful to have had that job as I transitioned from full-time work in an office to…
Two Years Old
Today we celebrate LucyKate’s second birthday. I wanted to write a heartfelt and meaningful post in honor of her special day. But I just can’t. I have tried all day and the words fall short. So I will simply say this: Lucia Kathryn, being your mom is the best thing. I am infinitely grateful that…
Make Yourself At Home
An influential voice in my life recently told me that it takes at least a year, up to two years, to truly feel settled into a new home. We moved in December 2011, December 2012 and June 2013 so I suppose that means I have been in an ongoing state of being unsettled. I only…
Staying Connected In the Midst of Change
Eight weeks ago our little family of three became four as we welcomed precious Lucas James Walters into the world! He is a doll and we are soaking up every sweet minute of his new little life. His presence, however, has brought my blogging and my study of God’s promises to a screeching halt. Since…
How to Face Your Fears
God is leading me down a very interesting and unexpected path as I seek to know and believe his promises. The more I study the promises of God and ask for his help believing his promises, I find him leading me face to face with my fears. To be truthful, fear is what propelled me…

Pancake Saturday {Cooking Adventures: Day 6}
Saturdays are for two things: sleeping in and eating pancakes. When I was little, I spent Friday nights at my Me-Maw’s house. Every Saturday morning she made me chocolate-chip pancakes. She would mix up the batter but she would let me help. I would scoot a kitchen table chair up next to where she stood…
Walters, Party of Three
We just returned from an extra long road trip from DC to Memphis. On our way home we stopped in Strawberry Plains for Cracker Barrel. Normally we would have hit a Chick-Fil-A Drive through and kept on truckin but when you have a baby in tow stopping at a fine establishment like the Cracker Barrel…
