It’s World Suicide Prevention Day, and September is Suicide Prevention Month. I can’t let this day slide by without acknowledging the terrible void that suicide has left in my life and in my family. In May of 2023, one of the most important people of my childhood committed suicide. My cousin Rachel was one ofContinue reading “Ladybug, A Poem”

Pizza Quesadillas
Dinner tonight sure was good! Pizza quesadillas are a new fave in the Miller house! I figured I should give this recipe a spot on the blog so it’s permanently posted for anyone who wants to give it a shot. Here’s what you’ll need: I heated my electric griddle, but you could just as easilyContinue reading “Pizza Quesadillas”
Treating Others As You Wish to Be Treated
Bear with me, as today’s post is one I felt called to share, but is not my usual home decor hacks, recipes, or parenting tips. This is not about your politics; this is about your humanity. You cannot claim to support “family values” (however you may define that) and then laugh in the face ofContinue reading “Treating Others As You Wish to Be Treated”
Theological Ramblings on Philippians 1 & 2
I’ve been reading Philippians daily with one of my youth group members, and Paul has a lot to say about how to treat one another and a lot to say about joy despite circumstance. When I scroll through social media, I see an awful lot of complaining. What’s interesting is that it seems that wellContinue reading “Theological Ramblings on Philippians 1 & 2”
Registry Checklist for Subsequent Babies
When having Baby #2 or Baby #3 (or even further down the line), it used to be said that mothers didn’t need an additional baby shower. That mindset has definitely gone by the wayside, and it’s very popular now for moms to have a friend or family member host them a “baby sprinkle” (mini shower)Continue reading “Registry Checklist for Subsequent Babies”

Postpartum Essentials Basket
Postpartum health is critical – and it’s not talked about nearly enough or candidly enough. This isn’t a comfortable topic for someone who considers themselves pretty modest, but the importance of being transparent about maternal health outweighs discomfort, in my opinion. As we approach having our third baby, there are several essential items I wantContinue reading “Postpartum Essentials Basket”
Theological Ramblings on Psalm 69
I am very fortunate and blessed to lead a Bible study, twice a week, at church as a part of my job as Christian Education Director. (Some might use the verb “teach,” but I often learn as much from the group members as I share, and often times they teach me in ways I couldContinue reading “Theological Ramblings on Psalm 69”
