On Sunday, August 23, 2020, Lauren Skai Walker entered the world at 9:43AM. She weighed 7lbs, 4oz—the largest of all three of our girls. Head FULL of curls. I was 39 weeks and 2 days, the longest I’ve ever carried. And she was the perfect last little addition to our family. We say last addition […]

Often times, we’re reflecting on what we would tell our younger selves based on what we’ve learned through the trials and triumphs of life. We often want to go back and tell our younger, more naive, inexperienced, and perhaps overly zealous selves that we should be confident in who we are, don’t be in a […]

Back in March, my husband and I made the decision to have our youngest baby girl dedicated to the Lord. It’s a lot like the term “christening” and it’s one of my favorite events to plan for! When Leah, our oldest daughter was an infant, we had her dedicated as well! However, some people may […]

Never underestimate the power of a transition.  Six and a half years ago, my husband and I found ourselves anxiously awaiting news we’d been waiting on for what felt like the longest five minutes of our lives.

Postpartum Find #3: be intentional


Growth, Marriage, Maturity, Motherhood, Wellness, Womanhood

This week I want to share about another truth I’ve discovered–especially in this season of postpartum: being intentional.  In earlier years, I liked to call myself a “free bird,” a “free spirit,” or even a “rebel.” I’d do things on my own time, letting some things go undone under the guise of ‘I don’t want to be […]

Postpartum Find #2: be transparent


Growth, Inspiration, Marriage, Maturity, Motherhood, Soul, Spirit, Wellness, Womanhood

It was week 8 of being home with our newborn and I felt a kind of “autopilot” gear kick in. I was fully functioning in the day-to-day tasks, but if I’m honest—I was in a daze. Wake up, feed baby, change diaper, pump, wash bottles, eat, go here, go there, wash this, wash that, repeat. […]
