The Mom Pledge

I ran across this pledge online and posted it in my office a couple months ago. I had kind of forgotten about it, actually. I was just sitting here thinking about my goals & dreams for 2011, and realized that this pledge fits perfectly with it all. I thought any Mom who reads this blog would be equally blessed by this pledge. So here you go:

I am blessed beyond belief.
     I am beautiful beyond compare.
I have the greatest career on earth,
     and I will perform it
          to the best of my God-given ability,
          with gratitude, not grumbling;
          with determination, not defeat.
I will rise to every challenge.
I will overcome every obstacle.
I will be productive and positive with every moment and minute I am given.
     My words will bless;
          My actions will build;
               My thoughts will empower;
And my life, my family, and my home will be abundantly blessed as a result.
I am strong enough,
     smart enough,
          and creative enough
to squeeze every bit of juice out of this ripe, delicious day.

Hello, There! Let Me (Re)Introduce Myself!

Well, hello there! Are you new here? I feel like I should be asking this of myself! I’ve been thinking for a while of returning to blogging. Not having to start from scratch is sure a blessing! I’m sure this blog will experience a few minor changes in the near future: like maybe the color scheme or even the name, but overall everything is pretty much still gonna be the same. It’s just me sharing my heart, sharing the wisdom that I hear God speaking and hoping to do it in a way that brings a little humor and joy into your life while I do. There’s been a lot of life changes since the last time I wrote in here. Our son is married, and he and our daughter-in-law are expecting their first baby very soon! (Dave & I are very excited to become Pops & Mimi!) His twin sister is finishing up grad school at the University of Tennessee - soon to become a speech language pathologist. And our youngest daughter is working full-time & getting ready to start a new job. My husband and I are w...

Romans 8: True Self vs False Self

When I hired my life coach in the summer of 2022, I was amazed at how quickly I saw true transformation in my own life. I knew pretty quickly that I wanted to someday get certified as a life coach myself. With my husband's blessing, I signed up for certification in the fall of 2023, and graduated last June as a Certified Christian Life Coach. I started accepting a few free clients in the fall of 2023, and have been thrilled to be able to coach several ladies since then. I am a general life coach for women of faith - of any age. What a joy it has been to help other women begin to have breakthroughs...even while I'm still experiencing breakthroughs of my own!  Last summer, as I was brainstorming ways I could grow my coaching business and reach more people in my community, I decided to let my town's FB group know that I was available for speaking at women's events or mom's groups in the upcoming year. It definitely was a little scary to put that offer out into the worl...

Finishing 2025 With My Soul On FIRE!

 Well, before I get started, I just have to say - if you don't already know - I actually DID start my podcast!!! There are currently 7 episodes out (with one more scheduled to post Saturday). I am having SO much fun with it! I am just so stinkin' proud of myself for doing the dang thing. LOL Whether I'm the only who ever listens to it - or it reaches a few strangers on the internet - I am so happy to be saying a resounding YES! to God's call on this one. So. Much. Fun. Holy Whispers Welcome Episode And, I guess, that leads in nicely to this blog post.  Let's finish this year STRONG! Saying yes to all the things that light our souls on FIRE! Even the things that terrify us! God gave us this opportunity, so let's make it count!  As my birthday approaches in a few weeks, it always gets me taking the temperature on where my life is at. We're almost 8 full months into 2025. What were your goals in January? What are the reasons you're proud of yourself right n...
