Snow days are the perfect day to create! I spent t Snow days are the perfect day to create! I spent time writing and made blueberry cornbread pudding from leftover cornbread muffins. Then, I hired my lovely daughter Brooklyn to create art on my nails. She is so incredibly talented and this was my first experience being one of her clients! 

I love seeing both of my girls thrive in different ways when it comes to their creative gifts. God is the Creator who made us to create. And it’s beautiful!
In Exodus, God passes before Moses and says, let m In Exodus, God passes before Moses and says, let me tell you what I am like: 
"The Lord, the Lord, the compassionate and gracious God, slow to anger, abounding in love and faithfulness, maintaining love to thousands...."

Compassionate and gracious almost always go together in the scriptures. And, they are exclusively used in reference to God, no other persons. The Psalms repeatedly echo these two characteristics of God. 

Jesus, in human form, embodies being compassionate and gracious. Throughout the gospels, we see how Jesus was moved with compassion.

As we choose to live as Jesus did, may we move towards others with compassion and grace.

This beauty turned 18 on Christmas Day! We gifted This beauty turned 18 on Christmas Day! We gifted her this pottery wheel that she has wanted for several years and her dad carved out some basement space for her to have a “studio.” I believe God designed us to be creators so this was an easy investment in her and her gift! We can’t wait to see what beautiful things she makes. 

She also held out until this big birthday to jump into social media. My first birthday message that I can tag her in! 😘So proud of you @hailey.gwynn.o for who you are becoming as you take another step towards adulthood. You’re beautiful inside and out and I love being your mom! #seniorsunday

And they are off to Jamaica! 🇯🇲 It’s been a whirlw And they are off to Jamaica! 🇯🇲 It’s been a whirlwind of the last 2 weeks as we prayed and trusted God for this mission trip. Greg has traveled with his seniors for the last 7 years and now, it’s Hailey’s turn to go with. 😭 We believe that God has a special week ahead for this crew as they go to serve in the aftermath of hurricane Melissa. Brooklyn and I had the joy of seeing them off at the gate as we take our own little adventure to San Diego for a few days! 🙌🏻❤️ 

Please pray for this crew as you think of them this week. They are bringing loads of donations from our KCC community and have hearts ready to bring the light, love and hope of Jesus to the Jamaica people! 🙏🏻
Hailey and I took a trip to Phoenix to visit GCU a Hailey and I took a trip to Phoenix to visit GCU a little over a month ago.

Halloween throw backs! When your kids have outgrow Halloween throw backs! When your kids have outgrown the costume phase and you miss dressing up with your co-workers…you hit memory lane. Here’s to a few of my faves! ❤️
Everything about Senior night for volleyball made Everything about Senior night for volleyball made for a night of golden memories. I thought I would end up in tears but as we walked Hailey onto the court for her last home game, I was beaming with joy….at who she is becoming! Thankful for every moment with her sis and her dear friends on and off the court. And…to these 2 moms who have loved my daughters as their own, prayed over them, and encouraged me to be the mom they need…I’m so grateful for you @allystouse and Genny! ❤️
