Never underestimate the little girl that says, "I'll have the steak please."

"The best view comes after the hardest climb" Hiking in Skyline park Arizona 🏜 ❤️ Love the views and pretty rocks, thankfully only saw lizards and no rattlesnakes....not gonna sugar coat it, it was not an easy hike!

Yesterday Maddyn woke up asking to watch the national geographic Loch Ness monster documentary and today she asked me to take her Thrifting 😆 🤣 😂 im raising an 80 year old 7 year old with lots of spunk and no filter

If you're sleep deprived, one of the best things you can do (counterintuitively) is high-intensity exercise. A few hours of sleep deprivation reduces insulin sensitivity and impairs cognitive function. But just 10 minutes of HIIT can enhance brain blood flow, cognitive performance, and blood glucose regulation. It can take you back to baseline, or even above it, for several hours or until you can get adequate sleep. You may not feel like going hard when you're tired, but the short-term benefits are real. Just don't make poor sleep a habit.

Not every child walks back into school after Christmas break feeling rested, celebrated, or safe. For some kids, the holidays are loud. Or lonely. Or heavy. Or something they’re just relieved is over. So as they come through our doors this week, love on your kids a little extra. A smile. A gentle word. Sitting down at their level. Letting them talk—or just letting them be quiet. You may be the first genuine affection they’ve felt in two weeks. The first adult who sees them. The first place that feels steady again. School isn’t just academics. Sometimes it’s refuge. Sometimes it’s regulation. Sometimes it’s love. Lead with grace this week.

Grandbabies left for Arizona and our house is quiet and our hearts a little sad 😔 Me: Kinsler, mimsy will miss you so big! Kinsler Reed: me too Mimsy with a little tear in his little voice Nothing prepares you for the amazing feeling of grabdparenthood ❤️

Out of the thousand people at the Dolly Stampede of course Maddyn was one of the 4 kids chosen by our waiter to do the chicken chase 😆 🤣 and........she won 🏆 she was a tad upset she wasn't actually allowed to pick up or handle the chickens though lol She also now wants a horse

Maddyn's spirit character 😆 🤣 didn't even have to tell her to pose!

Merry Christmas from Branson. Beautiful 77 degrees with family. Pool time, waffles, nap in the sun on the balcony, and in a bit animal encounter at the zoo 🎄 🦁 Calm, no rush, day with family remembering the reason we celebrate Christmas, the blessing of our savior.

This girl don't play when it comes to her steak lol 😂 the waitress's face when she said , "I'll have the steak " was priceless!

First day of Christmas break equals first book of Christmas break binge read✔️
