Welcome

What started as a digital diary to document a newfound journey as a stay at home mom / wife has quickly evolved into my own little corner on the internet where I share all that life brings my way -- the good, the bad, and those "aha!" moments. All with a hint of sarcasm, a dash of truth and bold European wit. Thanks for following along!

The Weary World Rejoices



sharing some Christmas Eve thoughts.
I hope they speak to + encourage you as they have me. ✨

just imagine. the night has fallen. ⁣
a star shines bright. wise men are seeking.⁣

shepherds staring at the glorious sky. ⁣
angels singing. majestic sounds fill the air.⁣

all because a baby is born. ⁣
and with that, ๐—ฎ ๐˜„๐—ฒ๐—ฎ๐—ฟ๐˜† ๐˜„๐—ผ๐—ฟ๐—น๐—ฑ ๐—ฟ๐—ฒ๐—ท๐—ผ๐—ถ๐—ฐ๐—ฒ๐˜€. ⁣

I’ve spent the last few weeks dwelling on those words:
a weary world rejoices. ⁣

can you imagine the world before this night? ⁣

cold and dark. waiting on a Savior. ⁣
tied down by legalism.⁣ every little act of evil requires a sacrifice.⁣
every mistake you made required a priest to intercede on your behalf. ⁣

and like humans do, even after the rituals, ⁣
you would be always left wondering if it was enough. if you are enough. ⁣

the world was weary. ⁣
