Overheard: “I Just Want To Be Adorable and Domestic!”

What I Would Say To The “One That Got Away”
I was a little girl with a big crush! I had been in love with the same boy since I was 5- when I found him crying under the Missionary table at church. Growing up I was sure he would be the ONE. God must have made him for me. He was everything I ever wanted. […]

Yep! I’m FAT! Why Does That Matter To You?
Yep I’m FAT! You heard me right! I said it. I. A.M. F.A.T.! What you gonna do about it? We live in a world where FAT is bad word. It’s used as an insult. We say it when we’re judging someone else. We say it when we’re judging ourselves. It doesn’t have a specific number […]
Just Stop Moving
Toddlers. Just the word is exhausting! 2 syllables is way too much when you just finished chasing a toddler. This is Louli! She’s our baby and our last! She was actually a VERY unexpected surprise! But man has she added so much to this family. She is just relaxed into herself and so so silly. […]
