sometimes i get so wrapped up in what i did.
i grew up thinking accomplishments were so important.
they defined who i was.
so i believe that i'm not enough when i don't have anything other than clean clothes, fed and somewhat happy kids, a good marriage, and a livable home.
but now that i just listed those basics, i realized i do get a lot done day in and day out!
i want to unlearn that accomplishments = my value.
can't i just be?
be a wife, a momma, a friend.
there's a tug of war going on inside my head so often about this though.
it's the society we live in.
i'm not like most of them so i don't think i measure up.
blah, blah, blah.
yuck!!
i am exactly who i was created to be, and i don't need to defend that!
that's my story.
help me stick to it, friends!!

i got the chance to take pictures of this extended family on their farm.
they are so awesome, that they were doing last minute haircuts shortly after i showed up as they were getting ready.
my two little "assistants" had the best time hanging with this tribe.
i love the time i share with my clients!
We just covered this last night in class. We have all the value of human dignity just because we exist. Just be. Love it.

Ephesians 2:10
For we are God’s masterpiece. He has created us anew in Christ Jesus, so we can do the good things he planned for us long ago.
