I have finally — and I mean finally — been really diving into my reading goals and actually enjoying them again. For the last few years, my reading has been a little lackluster.

It’s been two long years since I’ve been able to grow a garden. Life shifted in big ways during that season.

Homemaking Isn’t Cute. It’s Holy. I woke up to wicked laughter coming from the living room. Not the sweet kind of laughter. The suspicious kind.
