Hi ya’ll!
I’m Priscilla and my husband and I have been blessed with two boys ages 6 and 2. I somehow managed to get a masters degree in Social Work by the grace of God right after my second son was born. I always knew I wanted to work in a field where I could help others but it never occurred to me it might not be how I had planned. I am so grateful that you have trusted me with your time and I would love to walk alongside you on this rollercoaster ride of being a momma where we can share life and learn and grow together!
I became a young mother at the age of 21 and it was one of the most terrifying feelings in the world but let me tell you, it has been so much more than I could ever imagine. There’s fear, frustration, laughter and tears and many times all in one day! I have been a stay at home mom since my first son was born with a few side hustles sprinkled in from social media management to dog sitting and now brand new blogger! I am a native Texan and wouldn’t have it any other way. We love to explore our metroplex because there is always something new and exciting to discover! We also enjoy traveling outside of our great state to venture out and make memories. I am a procrastinator, a wanna-be crunchy (but not), a little bit candle obsessed (there are always at least 3 candles lit at all times in my home), and most importantly a lover of Jesus. My passions include my morning coffee, the season of autumn, getting to know Christ, listening to podcasts, venti unsweetened black iced tea (light ice), reading aloud with my boys and all things motherhood! I am new to homeschooling but it is quickly becoming another passion to add to the list.
Honestly, being a mom has brought me to my knees…literally. I have hit rock bottom and at that time I realized that my kids were able to bring to light my faults and humbled me to admit them and accept the fact that I can’t do this on my own. On many occasions, at the end of the day I felt defeated. The laundry was out of control, the dishes were piled in the sink, I barely was able to get something thrown together for dinner and the whispers of the enemy were that I failed and I am never good enough. I was overwhelmed and I surrendered my life to the Lord. I grew up knowing who God was and that Jesus died on the cross but that was about the extent of it. My faith was always surface level and I was left to the desires of my flesh. It wasn’t until after my second son was born just a couple years ago that I actually opened a bible for the first time and actually began to have a relationship with Christ! I never knew this was even possible? But let me say, I have tasted and seen His goodness and I am so thankful that he has always been waiting for me to come to Him and he has pursued me. I am always craving more and I just want to learn and grow more in my faith and I am so excited to share this with you all! God redeems and makes ALL things NEW. I’d love to hear your own testimonies on how you came to know Jesus and if you don’t know Him please know you are loved and you are welcome here! Feel free to contact me and I would love to chat with you anyway!
During my journey through motherhood, I began to seek knowledge and wisdom from other like-minded moms and discovered the world of blogs! I became obsessed! It was so comforting to know I was not alone. So many other moms out there were wondering the same things that I was trying to learn more about. I could easily spend hours into the night, after the kids are in bed (regrettably in the morning), just getting lost in the sea of resources and information! I began to grow a passion for all things motherhood. I loved being able to relate to other mommas and I thought, “Maybe I could do this?” I absolutely love being a mother and I love being at home but I wanted something that I could call my own, something where I can reach others that I might not otherwise.
I created this blog to be a resource for other mommas out there who want what I wanted – resources, guidance, and just to know you are not alone. I want this to feel like a gathering of girl friends with tea or coffee in hand, sharing experiences, speaking Truth and getting to know each other! I hope to provide ideas and what I have learned related to family life, parenting tips, fun and educational activities, and faith. I would love for you to join me in my walk through motherhood and feel encouraged. Motherhood still isn’t easy (especially biblical motherhood in this culture) but I am always reminded that I am in desperate need of a savior and His grace allows us to give ourselves grace while giving Him all the glory. I can’t wait to get to know you!
Many Blessings,
