My mom...


Such a shining example of strength, love and grace in our home. I think of my mother's faithfulness, she laid the foundation of a spiritual heritage through braving it with two rowdy kids on Sunday mornings. I remember the sweet way she smelled when she picked us up after school and how happy I was to be with her. I could and still can always tell her anything without fear of her thinking any less of me, although I wouldn't be surprised if she's thought I was losing my mind sometimes. I love her laugh...she makes me laugh. Her actions scream love, the importance of family, doing what's right, and taking care of each other. I love my mom and all the little things that make her who she is.

For Your Splendor Christy Nockels

Time has flown

And I realize it's been since Christmas that I've posted anything....so with that said, I guess it's time to catch up. In case you've missed seeing these smiling faces, here are a few recent pics.



 Can't believe one is 8 and the other 4...


First trip to the beach this year and she wasn't so sure about it which surprised me a lot. She hung out at the shoreline jumping in VERY shallow water. She's not a fan of waves but still had a lot of fun!


 

Emma has been playing soccer on Saturdays and we have enjoyed cheering her on :)



Lili had a pretty memorable egg hunt this year. She ran a train on those eggs!



About to end her 2nd grade year, she is growing into such a precious and tender hearted girl. 


I love the family that God gave me.
