My Baby is 4 Today

by Charlotte on March 12, 2013

I cannot believe that it has already been 4 years since we welcomed our little monkey into our lives. It honestly seems like yesterday. I know it’s cliché and every parent probably says that, but it really hits home when it’s your own! It seems like every year it gets more surreal, maybe because it’s [...]

A Great Read: “Made to Crave”

by Lisa on September 4, 2012

I have started reading Lysa Terkeurst’s book Made to Crave.  This book is amazing and just what I needed at this point in my life.  It is about craving God more than food.  It is really digging deep into why we eat and how we have to refocus your thoughts. It is not a book that [...]

by Lisa on August 30, 2012
