i’ve learned that the secret to parenthood is surrender.
surrender who you were before.
surrender the things you did before.
surrender the life you had before.
Build the container once, then return to the soil every day. That’s where life actually happens.
For the rest of this year and into 2026, I’m choosing to be present and focus on today. I hope you’ll join me. ❤️🩹
This year has been soul-crushing. Losing Allie’s sister in February has been a horrific nightmare I wouldn’t wish on my worst enemy. The magnitude of such a sudden, tragic loss still feels incomprehensible.

Life is a garden. The core is tending today’s soil, being intentional, present, and faithful to what’s in front of you. The container is the fence and watering system, the plans, goals, and structure that protect and support your growth.
