I’ve been married to my high school sweetheart since 2003. Together, we have four amazing children, by birth and adoption. When I am not homeschooling my favorite students, I spend my days on our 7-acre property where I try my best to love my family well and experiment with hobby homesteading.

I believe God has tasked us to be good stewards of our spaces in the world, and I guide my children to do the same.
I am a board member of The Sparrow Fund and an Empowered to Connect Facilitator. I love to dig in the dirt, cook nourishing food, capture beauty through my camera lens, watch the sunrise on the beach, and spend time with good literature on my porch while sipping on a hot cup of coffee.

I am never without my ‘Chillax’ blend of essential oils. In fact, it’s actually my most favorite roller. I’d bathe in it, if I had time to take baths. It smells so good and it has such a serene, calming effect. These oils are a must for our family! Let’s break them down individually: Vetiver...
Dumpling did such an amazing job at his neuropsychology evaluation last month! He worked incredibly hard! He kept up with the doctor and stuck with all of the tests, even when they were difficult. I think we got a really accurate picture of his strengths and struggles. I agreed wholeheartedly with the diagnoses he received....
Well, spring has sprung and it has ushered in the return of ticks and all the bugs. Yuck! This is not something I ever worried about where we lived before. But it’s a big issue living in the country, especially with our backyard being completely wooded. We intentionally take advantage of an active, outdoor lifestyle...
