Well, the bad news is, Duke lost. The good news is, Sawyer learned how to say “Krzyzewski.” Sort of. 😂 #LetsgoDuke 💙

With our coffee grinder nowhere to be found, the husband is so desperate for caffeine that he is attempting to grind coffee beans in a blender. The blender is screaming. #MondayBlues

@heidi_boyd Haha I love this.

Sometimes the greatest courage is in sloughing off shame & regret—heavy weights, crippling chains—to stand tall in God’s grace & say, “Here I am, Lord. Here to fight another day.” Trusting that the God who holds the earth in His hands also holds us near His heart.#WednesdayWisdom

Listening to my 12yo son cheer for the #NCAATournament, and he sounds just like my husband, and all is right with the world.

Lady at church to my 5-yr-old: I saw your grandparents are in town today! What do you call them? Grandma and Grandpa? Paw-Paw and Mama?"

5-yr-old: I just call them by their real names.

Me: What are their real names?

5-year-old: Mema and Granddaddy.

The first time my 4-yr-old heard @TenorsMusic sing, "O come let us adore him," as the last notes faded, she exclaimed,"OF COURSE we will let them come adore Him!" So there you go, @victormicallef, @cliftonmurray & @fraserwalters: you can come sing with this little one anytime!

You know you've had a kid in preschool for 12 years straight when every day at 11:30 am an adrenaline alarm goes off inside and you panic: "Oh no! Am I late for preschool pickup!" #momlife

@alexandraghoman Hahahaha I can't even. I don't know what to say about this...

Kevin & I recently risked our 19-year marriage playing ping-pong.
11yo: Who won?
Kevin: Mommy beat me fair & square.
11yo: Actually, she beat you fair & sphere...
I love raising kids who know that DEFINITIONS MATTER.
I also love an excuse to humbly mention my ping-pong victory.
