"Let me find thy light in my darkness,
thy life in my death,
thy joy in my sorrow,
thy grace in my sin,
thy riches in my poverty,
thy glory in my valley." Thankful for these Puritan prayers lately since it can be hard to focus when I'm praying (#mombrain). If you haven't read The Valley of Vision, check it out! Nate got me this when we were dating, and it's been so helpful through the seasons of my devotional life.

Posting her 6 month photos a bit late since we were traveling this weekend. It's so hard to believe our Glory girl is already 1/2 a year old! This month she has learned to roll over from back to belly, grab things and put them in her mouth, and she tasted her first food yesterday: avocado 🥑. She smiles basically whenever we make eye contact, and her laughter is the happiest sound in the world. Some words that describe her right now: happy, jovial, curious, sweet, loving, chubby, grabby (not sure if that's even a word, but she tried to grab everything within reach, so 😂), and social. We are so in love and so thankful for this sweet babe. ✨❤️ Shoutout to @kersten.sarah
for the adorable bubble romper she made her, and to her aunt Stephanie Mee for her monogrammed bib.

Although I love going on adventures, I've become more of a home body since having Glory. Staying home with a cup of good coffee in my favorite mug (Neutrals are my favorite but this mug is my one exception since it's so cozy to hold and it's from my Dad)and hanging out with my people is my favorite kind of day.
This time of in between for us right now (done with school, looking for a job for Nate) has been a struggle for my heart lately. I find myself wondering how long we'll be in this in between stage. I'm excited to set up a home somewhere and start to set down roots for our family. I'm excited about supporting Nate in his calling as a pastor, and building relationships with new people as we serve the church wherever God has us.
The Lord reminded me today that He hasn't changed since Nate graduated. He's still the same good Father who guided us to Louisville and helped us through seminary, and He has a good plan for our future. While setting down roots somewhere and having a house to set up will be sweet, those things can't ultimately satisfy, only He will.

Holding my friend's fresh, tiny newborn yesterday made me feel like Glory has gotten huge all of a sudden. It's hard to imagine that she used to be so tiny. All at once it hit me that my baby is growing so fast and I can't stop it. I love experiencing every new stage with her, seeing her grow and learn new things, yet at the same time I ache that she's not that tiny, squishy newborn anymore. Motherhood is filled with so many beautiful, messy, conflicting emotions! On the one hand I want her to grow and develop but on the other hand I want to keep her tiny forever so I can snuggle her. It's such a weird mix of bittersweet all the time, but I'm so thankful to get to experience it all nonetheless.
