What You Can Expect
At Life Around the Coffee Cup, you will find encouragement to fuel your journey in marriage, motherhood, faith, and friendship.
Life Around the Coffee Cup is me, sitting looking over the top of my cuppa and just taking it in. It’s sharing what I’m learning, how I’m growing, and where I’m being refined (sometimes like steel wool on my soul so, yeah, ow). It’s about extending grace to myself on THOSE days when I need some extra portions. It’s a balance – it’s grace-filled growth.
And it’s me inviting YOU to take this journey with me. Because that’s what it is – a journey. No one is going to wake up one morning and have it all figured out. But every day we can wake up and try something. If it works, GREAT. If it doesn’t work, we can try again tomorrow.
It’s always, always about Baby Steps, then building off of those and moving forward. And it’s always, always about grace for the days that it doesn’t happen.
How and when we learn things is all a part of God’s plan. My journey looks differently than yours but they both have so much beauty and so much truth. I am humbled to share a piece of your journey with you.
And I promise you, I do NOT have it all figured out. There is a monster pile of laundry somewhere in my house and I almost never eat lunch and there are sticky spots on my kitchen floor. Sometimes I yell, bribe with candy, and let me kids watch too much TV when I’m exhausted (ok, I’m always exhausted just some days I’m more caffeinated able to cope).
I call it Life Around the Coffee Cup because I wish it was more like having coffee while our kids climbed book shelves than reading from a screen, but maybe someday we’ll get to do that.
That would be awesome sauce.
They should put a play place in at all the coffee shops….million dollar idea.
So Grab a Cup of Coffee…
…or tea, or whatever beverage you prefer. Stay for a few minutes, or stay for a while and do some life with us. I am so glad that you are here!
