• Feeding my soul this week

    The past couple of weeks have been full. Today I am packing and cleaning in preparation for our 10 day camping trip that starts tomorrow. I have been itching to write so wanted to snatch a quick few minutes to share a couple of photos of what has been feeding my soul this week in the midst of busyness. I am really looking forward to good quality family time away from some of the distractions of everyday life. I am also really excited about the launch of Write 31 Days next week. I have all the posts for while we are away ready to go and have so much bubbling…

  • Yes: Five Minute Friday

    I have such a love-hate relationship with the word “yes”. Maybe that’s a bit strong but for the people-pleaser in me it is a tricky one to navigate. I will say that I have come a long way in overcoming these tendencies and have grown more confident in my use of “no” when needed but it is a battle each time. My brain goes into overdrive trying to figure out how to work things out so that a “yes” is possible, even for things I know I’m not really interested in. Lysa TerKeurst’s book “The Best Yes” is a brilliant one for anyone else struggling with this. I need to…

  • What I learned (or relearned) in August

    It feels like only a week or two ago that I was writing my July post! It took me a long time to get my thoughts together to even realise what I have learned or relearned this month. I guess that’s a good indication of how full my mind and days have been. So here is my list of the fun, frivolous, serious and deep. I love tulips-we took a family day to the Araluen Botanical Park for the start of the tulip season there. It was a stunning winter’s day and a great day out. A funeral can be both gut-wrenching and faith building- I wrote about a recent…
