Blessed and humbled part 1

Caution: If you ask God to humble you, He will be more than happy to answer that prayer. I have firsthand experience with this type of request, and I'm truly thankful that it was answered. (More on that later.)

I have never felt so loved by so many in such a short amount of time as I did this past weekend. I was blessed to have a bunch of my girlfriends plan my "bachelorette" party on Friday. (The quotes are significant here because many would not consider a night without booze, bars, and crazy beads to be a real bachelorette, but I am not one of those people!) It was a perfect girls night out. With a private cooking class, stretch hummer limo, princess tiara, and some awesome lingerie, it was a night I'll never forget!

Apparently I only befriend amazingly gorgeous women!

Thanks for coming Laur, even if you didn't get to ride in the hummer.
Love you!

T and B don't mess around.

You girls are all such a blessing! Thanks to those who traveled, those who did all the planning, and those who gave up time with their own men to prepare me for mine! 
I can't wait to shower each of you in the future.

As March begins, often we hope for a great thaw in our land. Now Georgia certainly doesn't have any icy soil that needs warming, but our yearning for more light and fresh newness to keep us from numbing appears universal. I have written on this blog for ten years now. From singleness to newlywed to mama of four sickly, but now active, growing boys. It's been a place for me to purge, process, and pray through some of life's biggest changes and challenges. It's also helped me keep distant family and friends informed, but I've felt for some time it's come to an appropriate place for pause. I know that I have many more mountains and valleys to travel if the Lord wills it, and many more personal lessons that I'd love to share and reread to my kiddos one day (and if anyone wants to organize and compile this little landscape into a memoir, please be my guest), but I do not ever want to assume a posture of numbness as it relates to our regular routines.
