The Bible has much to say about your words. Once the words leave your mouth or you hit send on a text, they can’t be taken back. Your speech can encourage others or tear them down.

Dear Toddler Mom,
I remember that time in life. The 2’s and 3’s can be so much fun, yet so challenging. I have a 2 year old niece, so I get to experience this again. I honestly love it. If I could just keep her, I would. You get a first row seat to watch your babies grow… Continue reading Dear Toddler Mom,

If they walked… Continue reading If/Then
