Hi, friend! I am so glad you have stopped by my little corner of the internet. I hope you’ll take some time to look around and join our wonderful community of moms here as we learn to be better moms together!
Today is adoption day in the Goyer house! Did you hear those whoops and hollers? Yes, I thought so!
I've been striving for perfect. Without even knowing it really, I've been pinning and magazine clipping and decorating in my own little space for so long, that I've begun to form a picture in my mind of what home should look like, and developed a task sheet for myself of all the cleaning and organizing and purchasing required to make it just so. Its easy to get caught up in the pretty picture of home, and forget about the people there.
Is worry crowding out the joy of your mothering? When anxiety and motherhood collide get ready to fight an intense battle for freedom of your spirit, body, and mind. These three important factors that can arm you well and help you heal....
As I reached over to unbuckle my seatbelt, my friend grab my arm gently and looked straight into my eyes.
Lisa, have you thought about you and Stephen going for counseling together?
If there's anything moms have in common, it’s that we worry.
We worry about our kids. We worry for our kids. We worry we aren’t enough. We worry we aren’t doing enough. We worry we’re doing too much.
We long for peace. But we live in worry.
And not worry so much.
To be unshaken by my present circumstances and undaunted by today's challenges.
And yet here I find myself troubled in spirit and unsettled in my soul.
So you might not know that we care for my mother-in-law and that she and Dad have lived with us for the past 17 years.
And how I love her.
And how she suffers from Alzheimer's and hardly recognizes who we are anymore.
