I’m Just Not Good Enough

I sat outside on my yoga mat with my eyes closed and just breathed. It was cold outside in south eastern Arizona, but the sun warmed my upturned face. The kids were off in the grasslands playing in their “fort” and I could hear them laughing in the distance. For a moment I was content to…

  • Hi Jess – loved this! I can identify. As the first full time family we met almost 2 years ago at that special site in Sedona over Easter weekend, I was so impressed by your kids. You may not feel you are always the best — but even way back when you were killing it! Your family and especially your kids, set the bar high. Accepting, interesting, outgoing, friendly, talkative, nice – all amazing traits for anyone and impressive of such little people.
    Keep up the good work, keep saying no and enjoy the moment. Hope to cross paths with you soon.ReplyCancel

    Hi Jess and Sam,
    I tried to post this on your blob but it would not allow me too. I just read your post, Im not good enough!!
    Wow Jess, thanks for this blog so much. I am just now digging myself out of a hole that We have been in for the last 9 months . I was sitting in our RV (we have been living here for a few months while Keith gets treatments) and you all popped into my mind. I looked on here and I am nosying around and reading. Sometimes I have to look beyond it all and I cry in a closet alone sometimes, dealing with it all alone, and to read your blog just now has renewed my spirit again. Thank you for your honesty. FB is coming off of my phone as I write this. Time is spent way too much on what people think, if they like your post or not, blah blah blah. You are right, I dont have to prove myself to anyone at all……….l. Hugs and love, KellyReplyCancel

Funny How Things Work Out Sometimes – Long Key State Park

We weren’t even supposed to be at Long Key State Park. After the Dry Tortugas, we originally had planned to stay at Bahia Honda for another five days to decompress. We knew we’d need to catch up on work and school and little to no driving sounded great. However, we found an open spot at…

We Attend Chuch in an Office Complex

Today was a new experience for us. Sam is the one that usually scouts out church for Sunday and then encourages us to get out the door on time. This has turned into his job as I’m typically still in the bathroom desperately trying to finish up my mascara after helping the kids with their…

Signs and Footprints

A few weeks ago, we found ourselves hiking the Sound of Silence Trail in Dinosaur National Monument. It had been a rainy few days, but we found ourselves with a few hours of sunshine and set out on the trail. We were blessed with visitors from Jess’s family, and had a wonderful time chatting as…
