Enjoying life's perfect imperfections
I had every intention of sitting down and writing an upbeat post for today. To share fun projects that I’ve been finding from the hours of time I’ve spent sucked into Pinterest. But to be honest I’m struggling to feel upbeat. In fact I’m feeling a little beaten down. It’s been a while since I’ve [...]
Hi friends, Happy 1st Coffee Date in the 2013. I’m looking forward to many, many more heartfelt vloggy moments with you this year. If you’re visiting for the first time, I started coffee date last year as a way to build community. For us to have a place where we can share what’s on our [...]
I’m Emmy, I’m 35, and I’m infertile. Wait, let me back up. I’m Emmy. Alissa has been so sweet to allow me to invade her space for the day. We go way back to when we were both just starting out our businesses. She has been a good friend to me, and has always supported [...]
This morning began with Purposeful change. Instead of getting up, getting my coffee and getting ready for the day, I began the day with Jesus Calling. Or more importantly my Heavenly Father.

I wish I could put into a few simple, but beautiful words about what this weekend meant to me. I was broken, loved, prayed over + put back together in a way that only my God could do. It was powerful life changing and left me yearning for more. And that was just the life [...]
I’ll be the first to admit that I spend an awful lot of time worrying about my kids. Before Katelyn was born I worried about if I would be a good mommy, if I would know the best way to take care of her, love her and show her Jesus. By the time she was [...]
Yesterday I spent (probably way too long) chatting with my girlfriend about how excited I was for all the amazing things that I’ve been watching God do in my life and the life of my friends. Dreams coming to fruition, businesses growing, blogs flourishing, our children really and truly starting to understand just how amazing [...]
It’s hard to explain it, but I’ve felt as though there’s been a stirring in my heart lately. I’ve felt it for a while if I’m truly being honest. Maybe you’ve noticed it through things I’ve shared here on the blog, maybe I’ve seemed scattered, stressed, or not myself. I think the difficult part of putting [...]
