things recovering hyper independent women find incredibly attractive…
"It's handled"
"Relax baby, I got it"
"Be ready by 8"
"I booked it for us"

I'll pick you up"
You can read all the books. Watch all the documentaries. Listen to all the stories. But nothing & I mean nothing, will prepare you for certain moments in life until you're standing in them yourself. Marriage. Divorce. Childbirth. Losing someone you love. Parenting. They all look so different when it's your heart on the line. Your choices. Your pain. Your mess. Your miracle. It's easy to sit on the outside with theories, opinions, & assumptions. It's easy to think you'd handle it better. Until life turns to you & says, "Your turn." And suddenly, you understand. You understand the tears. The silence. The fight to keep going. The strength it takes to show up when everything feels heavy. The courage it takes to start over.
Life has a way of humbling us all. So be slow to judge, quick to offer grace, & always remember, what you don't understand today, you just might face tomorrow. We're all just figuring it out as we go. And that's more than okay.

52/52 Sundays, God I thank you for the last Sunday in this year. You have been Faithful, Kind, Helpful, Gracious and Merciful to me. Thank you for never forsaking me and for always coming through for me. I am grateful to have a loving Heavenly Father, Thank you God.
