When You Feel Out of Control Oct 04, 2017

Show notes

"I know at some point or another you will have or already have had one of those days where you just lose it. We all do. You're trying to put the baby down for a nap or get them to stop crying for the hundredth time and nothing is working. And it hits you, almost like a cold slap to the face, that you're not in control. In fact you're so out of control that you start to wonder if you can even do this. Survive the day. Get through the night. Do this whole motherhood thing.

Today was one of those days for me. And when I first saw how things were beginning to spiral out of control within my very own home, I found myself asking the question, What AM I in control of? Because I'm certainly not in control of this crying baby who's skipping her nap or the husband who doesn't quite know the right things to do or say. And I don't even think I'm in control of myself because I have these emotions, especially this anger, that rises up in me, and there's just no stopping it..."

When You're In Need Sep 20, 2017

Show notes

"When we first brought our little one home from the hospital, I had no idea what she wanted. Is she crying from hunger? From gas? From over stimulation? But over time I have become so intimately acquainted with her that I now know exactly what makes her smile and what makes her fuss. I know the difference between her hunger cry and her scared cry and her tired cry. I know when she's nursing for hunger or just nursing for comfort. I know how to calm her down when she bumps her head or falls over. I even know the faces she makes when she's pooping! I know my baby's needs better than she knows them herself and I love that I'm able to meet many of those needs for her.

Lately I've been reminded that the Lord knows us and feels the same way about us too. Sometimes that thought scares me. Being fully known is an intimidating thing. There have been many times when I have convinced myself it's better to try to ignore or hide from the Lord rather than run to him, even though he knows exactly what my aching soul needs and he is the only one who can provide it."

When You're Hurting Sep 13, 2017

Show notes

"Sometimes it feels like my heart is breaking when I see my baby crying over something I can't fix or control. This week she has a tooth breaking through and I can tell it's distressing her, and watching those big crocodile tears roll down her cheeks makes me so, so sad. She doesn't understand the pain she's feeling, the changes that she is going through. To her it just hurts. That's all she knows, and so there's no stopping the tears.

I can't count the number of times I have been in those same shoes, shedding tears over something that I can't understand, only knowing that I'm in pain and thinking it won't ever go away. My first heartbreak. Loneliness. Rejection. Painful childhood memories. Waiting. Loss."

When You Don't Feel Like Yourself Sep 06, 2017

Show notes

"I know what it's like to not feel like yourself. I know how overwhelming it can be to have these hormones coursing through your body and to have to adjust to this new lifestyle revolving around the baby. I know how it can affect your marriage to the point where you wonder if it'll even keep working and how easy it is to reminisce on the days when you were more stable, less sleep deprived, and in control. You start to ask yourself, will I ever feel normal and be in that place again?

I don't know how long it'll take to adjust for you or me. I'm definitely still working on it. I have good days and bad days. But what I've come to learn is that even when I don't feel like myself, God knows who I am and he is able to remind me and keep me grounded in the truth..."

When You Forget Why You're a Mom Aug 31, 2017

Show notes

"When you're in this season of sameness, with a little baby who relies on you day in and day out, it's easy to forget the eternal significance of motherhood. Especially since we have yet to see the fruits of our labor. Our little ones can't grasp that there's a God who loves them just yet, so we hide those truths away in our hearts until the right time comes.

But despite our inability to fully walk out what it means to teach our children biblical truths and the love of God, there is still a beautiful God-given purpose for the diaper changes, late night feedings, and sweet moments spent in the rocking chair..."

When You're Awake and Alone Aug 31, 2017

Show notes

"There have been nights when I have felt alone while nursing in quiet in the dark. My husband is sound asleep, the dog is sound asleep, all of my friends and family are sound asleep, everyone on social media is asleep, and yet here I am. Awake and alone. Tending to my baby. These moments are hidden from the world. Its just her and I. And it can be tempting to feel isolated and unnoticed.

Maybe this sounds all too familiar to you right now. Maybe you're still in the thick of things with me, waking up far more often than you'd like, taking care of your little one while the rest of the world remains oblivious..."
