These ornaments make me smile each time we decorate the tree - each of our baby’s hospital hats and bracelets. Life with itty bitty babies simultaneously feels like only yesterday and also a lifetime ago.

Happy December 1st! The countdown to Christmas can officially begin 😍🎄🎉

One of my favorite Thanksgiving traditions: each year I roll out a piece of brown butcher paper and we cover our table with pictures and words of things we’re thankful for 🥰. Our gratitude usually runs the gamut, from family members to bathtubs to library books to nail polish to Jesus 🤪😍
❓ What is one thing you’re thankful for today?

Twice a year my school hosts a Coffee and Curriculum Night where parents come together as a class to hear important upcoming information, talk through some curriculum questions, and encourage one another in this super-special-and-unique model of part-time school, part-time homeschooling (university model school). We have THE BEST parents and I can’t wait to meet with them tonight. I made these cute little tags to thank them for their commitment, investment, encouragement, and involvement 🥰

Starting Week 3 of school and am praying for my ad

Starting Week 3 of school and am praying for my administration today ❤️
Serving in administration is a weighty position and a high calling. Please take time to specifically pray (by name if you can) for the men and women in leadership positions at your school and in your broader school district: superintendent, principal, vice principal, behavior specialists, counselors, etc. As they are overseeing the daily operations, they need our prayer.
Prayer prompts:
Pray that, if they haven’t already, they would come to saving faith in Jesus Christ as Lord this year.

Pray for grace and accountability as they make tough decisions and work with students, parents, and teachers.

Pray that they would be strong leaders for their staff and would truly listen to the needs of their community. Pray for wisdom as they seek to keep the school a safe place for the teachers to teach in and the students to learn in.

Pray that they would appropriately balance their home and school lives, so that their families won’t be neglected.

Pray for wisdom and discernment as they hire new staff for the coming school year.

Scripture reference:
Proverbs 11:14
Without guidance, a people will fall,�but with many counselors there is deliverance.
