Intellectually, I don’t know how to raise humans. I make mistakes often. I feel lost. My kids challenge me more than I ever thought possible. We are messy, emotional, and loud. I pray to Maydell (pictured), my grandmother who lost her life to a drunk driver when she was 40, leaving behind two young children. I ask her for help in living each day to the fullest and seeing even the hardest parenting moments as the greatest privileges. I pray to Margaret, my grandmother whose name I carry as my middle, who adopted her husband’s motherless children as her own, who lost her daughter to an accident and her life to leukemia. I ask for her help to be the most loving mother to my son and my daughters. I pray to her that I do not lose sight of the preciousness of every minute, that I do not forget my children are my children no matter what. My grandmothers did not grow old peacefully. But the grace came after their deaths, in the beautiful path they laid for us to walk upon. ~To read more about what my grandmothers left me, click the link in my profile.~ #motherhood #motherhoodrising #wisdom #ancestors #grandmothers #legacy #inheritance #truth #beauty #daughtersoftheamericanrevolution #circleoflife #mothersagainstdrunkdriving #stepmom

Utopian dreamers all lit up. I love these babes with my whole heart. ❤️

A crafty little neighborhood ❤️ We are selling homemade gifts on Pine Street made by neighbors young and old 🎁#pinestreetcrafts

James and I bought this little artificial tree for our first Christmas together and now it’s the 11th and never could I have imagined how this beautiful decade would shape and change us, how we would land here now, in a world rich with possibilities, adventures, and people to love. ✨

Michelle Obama: Kids are born into this world with a sense of hope and optimism. No matter where they’re from, how tough their stories are, they think they can be anything because we tell them that. So now we have a responsibility to be optimistic and to operate in the world in that way. Oprah: Do feel optimistic for our country? Michelle Obama: We have to be. #hope #yeswecan #optimism #america #lovewins #seattle #pnwonderland #lakewashington #mood #skies #skylawinter #oprah #michelleobama
