This year certainly had its ups and downs. Having worked in college ministry, being back in grad school, and then being on a college ministry schedule again, I tend to view each year in terms of the school schedule (i.e., September-June) rather than the calendar year. Until now I haven't really reflected on 2018 as … Continue reading 2018 recap
I thought I would start doing weekly (or semi-weekly) updates, because I'd like to keep you more connected with what's going on in my life, and it's fun to share the little things 🙂 I will try to keep up with these! Life Update It has been so great being back in France, this time … Continue reading life lately
Catch Parts I and II here and here... The summer flew by and before I knew it I was a college student. I had to make my decision - to date Whit or not to date him? Even though I liked him, I felt like the Lord was leading me in a different direction. The … Continue reading Our Love Story (Part III)
One challenge with being in your twenties is that this stage of life often feels like a checklist. You date, get married, have kids, buy a house. Whenever you aren't doing those things, or aren't doing them at the same time as your friends, it's easy to feel left out. Here's my experience... Whit and … Continue reading On the Baby Stage and Feeling Left Out
Catch Part I here... Finally the seniors graduated and went off to college, leaving my group of girlfriends without many older guys to pine for. Whit and his friends would come back from college every few months and would spend hours sharing the most unbelievably ridiculous stories from college. I liked him so much, and … Continue reading Our Love Story (Part II)
I've seen a few other people share their love stories lately, so I figured I'd do the same... Ten years ago on Valentine's Day 2007, Whit and I started dating, "officially," as boyfriend and girlfriend. But of course our story started well before that... When I was in eighth grade, my family decided to switch … Continue reading 10 Years Ago – Our Love Story (Part I)
Just things I was thinking about... Being 28, married for six years, and not yet in the stage of having kids is isolating. It's fantastic that my friends have or are having children. But since my husband and I aren't trying to be in that stage yet, I feel alone. I feel disconnected from my … Continue reading When You Feel Like the Only One
Whit and I have been married for five years. That seems so crazy to me! That's such a good chunk of time. It seems short, when thinking about all the people who have been married for 10, 20, 30 years. But when we celebrated our second anniversary I felt so much older and more experienced … Continue reading Five Years
If you missed Part I of My Health Journey, please catch up before reading on... In early March we finally had enough support that we felt confident finding a home to rent in Pennsylvania. With support, you never know when exactly you'll be done - it could be days, weeks, or months, but we felt … Continue reading My Health Journey: Part II
Now that my New Zealand series is over (sad day), I am happy to begin sharing about a topic that is more personal, meaningful, and important to me. A lot of changes have occurred in my life over the past few years, including problems, improvements, and ups and downs, and I've been wanting to share … Continue reading My Health Journey: Part I
