The monthly check-ins that Carolyn hosts keep me on track with this little endeavor of mine and I'm so thankful for her! Please be sure to visit her blog... Continue Reading →
I know I must say it every month, but I can't believe it's the last week of June. Wasn't I just sitting down to write May's One Little Word post? It certainly feels like it, but nope - June has already flown right by us. Thank you to Carolyn for hosting these monthly linkups, because... Continue Reading →
I'm here to check in with my One Little Word, Surrender. Thank you to Carolyn for hosting these monthly checkins. I love having this gentle accountability to keep my word in the forefront of my life.

While trying to decide where to go with my last effort for my One Little Word in 2021, I realized that it's impossible to distill twelve months of Stillness into one post. I can't really put something together that shows everything I've learned and then wrap it up with a pretty bow. I can only... Continue Reading →
Friends, we only have one month left with this year's word. How can that be?! Stillness has been such a good fit for 2021 and I don't think I'm ready to leave it behind. Of course, I don't have to! I have a new word picked out for 2022, but Stillness will continue to work... Continue Reading →
Can you believe it's the last week of October? This is my favorite month and I'll be sad to say goodbye to it. And as we get closer to the end of 2021, I'm beginning to think of next year's word and what I'm looking to learn from it. But before then, I'm happy to... Continue Reading →
