I’m Not in Control
God keeps trying to teach me the same lesson over and over again: I’m not in control. For an over-organized, type A planner like myself, major twists and turns (and to be honest also some minor ones) can throw me for a loop. It’s scary because I don’t always know what’s next. I used to think that if I know what’s… Read more →
Levi’s Birth Story: One Year Later
On the first anniversary of my son’s birth, which was actually yesterday, I am finally taking the time to write down his birth story. Fortunately, I now have a great venue to share it!

It’s a three-hour drive from Houston, although on the way there we took a slightly longer, more scenic route. After much time in the concrete… Read more →
I Can’t Do It All: Why I Became a Stay-at-Home Mom
My B.C.-self (that is, before child) had always expected to have a two-career family. Heck, that’s what my parents did. I knew working full-time while raising a family would be tough, but I didn’t yet understand why mothers chose to stay at home, especially after earning advanced degrees. I even caught myself saying, “I didn’t earn my MBA to stay at home.” Just a… Read more →
