About this Blog

I oftentimes find myself feeling as if I am drowning in a sea of brokenness. Financial strains, familial tensions, and the like, oftentimes distract me from who I am in Christ, and furthermore, what I am called to do as His servant. Scripture repeatedly teaches that a part of my calling is to offer up my body as a living sacrifice, and this includes giving thanks for the blessings in my life to the loving God who bestows them. My life needs to be one of joy, one that actively pursues beauty and appreciates all things, even those that are commonly overlooked.
With this blog, I hope to take myself and anyone who reads it on a journey in which each and every day I find something to do, or see, or make that is beautiful and can be deeply appreciated. Then, I will give the beauty I find as an offering of praise and thanks to the Lord by writing about it here on this blog. Check back each day for a new post! I hope that what you read here will inspire you to appreciate life more and actively pursue the beauty that surrounds you, even in the midst of brokenness.

My Favorite 5 Year Old

It was almost five years ago that my family and I went to the airport to meet the little baby we had been looking forward to meeting for months and months. 

That little baby was the lovely Miss Catherine Le Whitaker, and now she is five years old. 




Her family adopted her from China five years ago, this Sunday. They usually celebrate her Adoption Day with a cute little cake commemorating her becoming the part of their family. I am so excited to be with them this Sunday as they celebrate their 5th Adoption Day. 

Catherine is sweet, with a little bit of sass. She's funny, energetic, and loves to snuggle. I love her so much; she's like a little sister to me. 

Thank you, Lord, for Catherine. :)
