Hi. I’m bri and I go over the top on things. It’s simultaneously both my best and worst quality.

So, we went skiing. It wasn’t perfect.
There were tears.
And a lot of fear. That’s how new things go in our home. Even the ones that seem that they would be the most fun still have these moments. Why? Because new or change to the average person can bring on a nervous feeling. But to my girls, and I’m sure many other foster kids, it’s fight or flight. Basically anytime we are out of the scheduled norm, it may not go exactly how we thought. In the last year and a half, they have had to live with a new family in a new house, go to a new school, have new friends, go to a new church, and an overall just get used to a new lifestyle. Not that this replaced or eliminated where they came from or their biological family, but their world got turned upside down to no fault of their own. It took a lot of trust to get them up the hill.
It took us promising that we would be right beside them to get them down the hill. Which may seem insignificant to some, but being their safety net during the new stuff is one of my greatest accomplishments. My hand is always out just in case you need me sweet girls. Be on the look out for our tips for teaching your kids to ski on our next blog! #meetthefishpaws #communityovercompetition #pursuepretty #blessed #thatsdarling #graceupongrace #bedeeplyrooted #christianblogger #shedelights #ohheymama #motherhoodrising #motherhood #honestmom #childhoodunplugged #thesearethedays #themomdiary #christianmom #dailymotherhood #documentyourdays #mymotherhood #acupofmotherhood #motherhoodunplugged #fostermom #fostercare #thisisfostercare #fostercareawareness #discoverunder5k #snowskiing #kidsadventure #bebrave

She’s like a wild flower,
The color yellow,
Christmas morning. She’s like the first snowfall of the season,
Hearing your favorite song on the radio,
Finishing a todo list. She like a sunrise on the east coast,
A warm brownie,
And a cannonball on a hot summer day. She is the kick after eating something spicy,
A double rainbow,
Or watching your favorite series after a tough day. And she’s seven.
Smart and sassy and kind and there’s something poetic about her being born on NYE. Her sixth year brought a ridiculous amount of growth and grace and a deep love that I never experienced before in my life, so there are no words to describe how excited I am for her seventh year. Happy birthday baby girl! I am beyond proud of you. #nolabelsjustfamily #meetthefishpaws #goals #pursuepretty #graceupongrace #blessed #blogger #thatsdarling #shereadstruth #seeksimplicity #christianinfluencer #gritandvirtue #inbeautyandchaos #ohheymama #motherhoodrising #storytellingmama #mymotherhood #discoverunder5k #motherhood #womensupportingwomen #lifeasamama #fostercare #thisisfostercare #loveauthentic #blogsociety #stayandwander #calledtobecreative #livecolorfully #bloggerlife #discoverunder10k

Merry Christmas y’all. Can you imagine being a Shepard on the day Jesus was born? Or a wise men? Or even Mary for that matter? What a belief and trust she must have had to offer such a sacrifice for us all to be free. I pray that same belief and trust over all of us this holiday season for whatever sacrifice that may look like. I am so grateful for all of you and the blessings you bring our family. ❤️🎄 #merrychristmas #nolabelsjustfamily #pursuepretty #graceupongrace #blessed #blogger #shedelights #givemejesus #shereadstruth #bedeeplyrooted #faithblog #discoverunder5k #faithoverfear #inbeautyandchaos #gritandvirtue #ohheymama #womensupportingwomen #motherhoodrising #thisismotherhood #dailymotherhood #mymotherhood #storytellingmama #modernmom #mynameismama #fostercare #thisisfostercare #bettertogether #lovemakesafamily #christmas #jesusisthereasonfortheseason

Fostering through the holidays is a whole bag of w

Fostering through the holidays is a whole bag of worms. On one hand, it’s so stinking hard. The littlest things can trigger the trauma of your child’s life to come out in behaviors. On the other, the gospel begins to become ridiculously clear. The complete understanding makes you believe like a child again. I was telling someone today about how Christmas works in our house and they responded with how I seemed much calmer about what gifts come in my home than they think they would be in our situation. I thought about it for a while which lead me to really think that this isn’t about me or even my home aesthetic, this is about the gospel. This is way bigger than a gift, this is about a relationship filled with grace and love. Also, I’m not in a situation and bio parents get a really bad rep. This is about two sets of parents making the best out of coparenting because let me tell ya, there are a lot bigger fish to fry. It’s a rollercoaster, but I’m so here for the ride and I’ll make sure to share the wild pics we take along the way! #communityovercompetition #pursuepretty #homestyle #houseandhome #graceupongrace #blessed #thatsdarling #inbeautyandchaos #bedeeplyrooted #faithoverfear #christianblog #shereadstruth #ohheymama #womensupportingwomen #motherhoodrising #motherhood #mynameismama #lifeasamama #realmotherhood #thisismotherhood #uniteinmotherhood #fostermom #fostercare #thisisfostercare #bettertogether #meetthefishpaws #nolabelsjustfamily

This room. Man, do I have a love-hate for it.

This room. Man, do I have a love-hate for it. I hate that it’s a part of my story.
I hate that I have to spend so much time here.
I hate the anxiety it gives me sitting in it.
I hate the deep pain I feel every single time I have to come back with no fun news.
I hate how lonely I feel in it.
I hate thinking about how many women and men walk through those doors with the same pain.
I hate the amount of times I have questioned God in it because lemme tell ya, izzzz a lot. But then there is this other side of it... I love how it reminds me how not in control I am.
I love how this room forces me to talk to God.
I love how it forces me to listen.
I love that the more I question, the more I find myself trusting.
I love that what this waiting room represent. Waiting is the worst. Ammiright? Like Dear God, where ya at? Infertility sucks y’all. The waiting sucks. Not trusting that God knows really belittles him, and who am i to do that. I mean nobody wants to endure the rain, but let’s not forget, without rain would be no rainbow. I’m finding peace in the fact that God knows. He knows why I need to hang tight in the rain for a second. He knows what’s coming is better than I could imagine. Man, the fact that he is whispering “you just wait” because he truly has this all worked out for the good is mind boggling to me. Whatever he has up his sleeve, whatever rainbow he has planed for my life, I’m so here for it. So cheers to the waiting y’all, my rainbow is coming. #meetthefishpaws #nolabelsjustfamily #iui
