My Wedding Video | June 30, 2018
https://youtu.be/BeIojNb0Lbs Anything I have to say won't do the video above justice. I ventured out of my written-word comfort zone and tried my hand at video editing using iMovie. By no means do I consider myself a pro, BUT I had footage from our wedding day and I really wanted to create something special for … Continue reading My Wedding Video | June 30, 2018
Teaching Moments
Long time, no see (read: post). I just re-read my last post, and I'd like to say so much has changed, and it definitely has, but at times I still feel like I'm in that somewhere between place even though it's now year two of teaching, advising yearbook, and being a true adult. This past … Continue reading Teaching Moments
Somewhere Between
My WordPress subscription to use lessonslearnedlifeloved.com as my domain renewed a few days ago. My first thought when I read the email was “why am I wasting $35.88 to fund a site I don’t use?” I can remember the last moment I was really doing something for myself and living in the moment, and I … Continue reading Somewhere Between
Why Me?
Three Saturdays ago, I forgot I agreed to curl my best friend’s hair before her college graduation in Kansas City. It happens, right? I jumped out of bed, hopped in the shower, and packed a bag. I wish that graduation was the only item on my agenda for the day, but unfortunately it was overlapping … Continue reading Why Me?

God’s Will and My Choices: A Relationship
Slacking is an understatement… I’m missing seven posts!!! This will only be 4 out of 19, but today is my third anniversary as a blogger so it’s the perfect day to get back on track. I’ve only hit my goal of going to the gym 4 times a week 3 out of 10 weeks so … Continue reading God’s Will and My Choices: A Relationship
“I write so that others might be inspired.”
Tonight, I came home from spending the weekend celebrating my boyfriend’s birthday in our college town to my mom and brother filling out scholarship applications. My brother is a senior in high school this year, and he’s signed to play baseball next year at a university that also just so happens to be THE school … Continue reading “I write so that others might be inspired.”
To My Teachers
You guys. I’m finally student teaching and I’m not even exhausted (yet)! Okay, so it’s only day two and my co-teacher and I are REALLY hoping for the first snow day of the semester tomorrow (prayers please). But still. I have a desk and a key to the classroom and a badge and access to … Continue reading To My Teachers
Broken Glass
When I was in high school, I compared my first real relationship to a glass box in one of my early journals. I thought everything was so clear and perfect, or so it seemed, and I knew with one wrong move it could shatter. It did – over and over. But that’s what glass does. … Continue reading Broken Glass
