I've been keeping journals since I was in the 3rd grade and I'm so glad to share some of my most intimate life moments with you here!  Here, you'll find inspirational and encouraging stories of me and other broken people like me. We are all jars of clay who have been afflicted in every way, but not crushed...struck down by not destroyed.  Here, you do NOT have the right to remain silent, so as you read, grab your favorite snack and drink and leave a comment...share YOUR story. I can't wait to connect with you in this beautiful safe space. 

welcome to my

journal!

ZAE + TRINSON |A COLORFUL ANCHORAGE, ALASKA LOVE SESSION

Putting together this post is such a joy for me. As someone who is still getting the hang of this military spouse thing, I have quickly learned that it doesn’t matter how long you’ve been around the military…until you are a military spouse, you have NO idea what you’re getting yourself into. This world is […]
