Giving Grace

The last month and a half has been one filled with change, worry, relief, and growth. I’ve been stretched in a lot of different ways since Abigail’s two month check up and it’s been hard, emotional, and, somehow, good. I generally don’t like change.

April

This has been the craziest month. Let’s start with what April looked like going into it: I need you to keep in mind that I’m truly a hermit at heart and so this was a lot of stuff. Easter was great. We went to church at LifeGate and then came home to make some delicious Easter […]
