Hi! Thanks for stopping by! If I could sit for an hour or two and have coffee with you, these words written down here are much of what I would say. Mostly you would hear me say, "Me too. You are not crazy and you are definitely not the only one." It is my hope that these frail and honest words of mine wrap around your soul like a big ole' comfy blanket, and that you leave this space feeling a little more hope and encouragement.. and just a little less alone.

THEY WON their mock trial case! ⚖️ I’m pretty sure Challenge B (8th grade) is a school year these kids won’t soon forget. They learned how to work together as a team, worked their little booties off, learned the judicial system process and how to hold large amounts of information in their brains, tried a case, and won together! I am amazed at what young people are capable of when you set the bar high and watch them rise to the Challenge. 🙌🏼 #classicaleducation #challengeB #mocktrial #homeschooling

Olivia about to go in the courtroom as prosecuting attorney with her class for a mock trial murder case. She’s worked so incredibly hard on this case and LOVED every second of it. Her dad and I sitting here about to watch and are super proud. Updates to follow!

The most amazing thing about knowing Jesus is that the same King of the world who watched me worship Him With arms raised yesterday on Resurrection Sunday is the same God who stays with me when I’m losing it on my kids or freaking out over Easter lunch not going as I had hoped it would. This morning I envisioned Jesus sitting at the foot of my bed with adoring eyes as I awoke and in my spirit I could hear Him saying, “Good morning Rachel!” He always calls me by my name. “I know you’ve got a long day and week ahead but I will be right there with you through every moment. I am WITH you. I am FOR you. Stay aware of my presence and the same power that I have, is yours. Ask me. Vent to me. Cry out to me. Depend on me to be all that you cannot. I am the God of your worship but I am also the God of your weakness.” And I realized, God doesn’t just want to do the spiritual things with us, He wants to do real life with us. He loves the put together Sunday us, and the messy everything, mascara under our eyes Monday us equally as much. This was just my morning reminder to go through my days in constant conversation with the God of the days after Resurrection day. He desires to be acknowledged and have His unending Resurrection power tapped into by those who know we can’t do ANYthing in our own strength. I am in love with Jesus because I don’t have to be anything special or good for Him to come to me. I don’t have to try harder or work or look a certain way to earn His presence in my life, I just have to acknowledge that I need Him. Jesus is attracted to where He is wanted.

Happy Resurrection Day from our crew! ✝️🌷

YES. 🙌🏼 I sure love my family but I ain’t about to hop on the toxic generational patterns, addictions, and curses train and ride it.

🙌🏼 So me when people roll their eyes at me going on about Jesus all the time. When someone saves you, heals you, fills you, and becomes your whole life you don’t just sit there lookin’ cute just quietly identifying as “Christian” on your healthcare forms. And yes, I’m fully aware of how weird I am. 🤷🏼‍♀️
