I Like A Clean House

There's something about getting home from a long day at work, not having to step over a bunch of shoes right in front of the doorway, not having to pick up clothes laying all over the room, and having enough space to cook dinner that night. There's just something about clean that puts me in a good mood. I am definitely one of those people who like to decompress when I get home from work. It doesn't even have to have been a hard day, I just simply do not like talking the moment I get home. I tend to go drop everything off in my room and lay around for a minute or two and look at my phone. Catch up on texts I missed throughout the day, play around on snapchat, view all my social medias... The last thing I want to do is hold a conversation the second I get in the door. 

 Wednesdays are usually easy days for me because I am the first one home. Yesterday was no exception. I came home to a clean house and my mood was uplifted. I began making dinner right away and found that the kitchen too was clean. I had plenty of space and dishes to cook. Once everyone started showing up, I was happy to greet them and start asking how their days were and then I noticed something...

 One of my love languages is a clean house. Okay, it's not really a love language but my mood is so much brighter when I am able to do what I want or need to do, like making dinner, without having to worry about the ten other things on my list that need to get done. This got me thinking, if I appreciate a clean house, then I'm sure others do too. I want to make it my goal to have a clean home, an open, fresh spot we all can come home to. But more importantly I began thinking if this is something I like, I wonder what my husband likes?

 Does he want dinner right away? Would he like dessert? Does he want to talk about his day the moment he gets home or is he like me and would rather decompress first? I just noticed that I don't know! My mission is to find out what makes my husband's mind peaceful when he gets home and start doing that for him.What a great feeling to have knowing the pressure is off when you get home. 

 Can I encourage you to do the same? Find out what your family members like and start doing it. I can guarantee stronger relationships will be built when you're not fighting on who's turn it is to take the trash out and instead sit down for a quiet chat about your days.

My God Wants Me To Trust Him

Lately I've been feeling really worried about a procedure I have coming up. In January it seemed like such a far off thing but now as the days tick by I'm getting so nervous. I have feelings of doubt and fear; what if this doesn't work? How are we going to pay for all this? What if things go wrong? What if I die? All extremely scary stuff. But then I remember that people go through this all the time, every day. I'm going to be ok no matter the outcome because my trust is in God and not the doctors.  Psalm 37:5 Commit everything you do to the Lord; trust Him and He will help you. Psalm 56:3 - 4 Whenever I am afraid, I will trust in you. In God I will praise His word, in God I have put my trust; I will not fear what flesh can do unto me.  Psalm 56:9 - 13 When I cry out to You, then my enemies will turn back; this I know, because God is for me. In God I will praise His Word, in the Lord I will praise His word, in God I have put my trust; I will not be afraid. What...

FAQ About My Twins

Multiples have always been a topic of interest for most people. When they are seen they are ohh'ed and ahh'ed over. If people get a chance there's always a few questions they love to ask. So here you go... Frequently Asked Questions about my Twins and their answers. Are they twins? Yes. Are they Identical? No. They are fraternal, meaning they came from two separate eggs fertilized by two separate sperm, aka they look different. Are they natural? Well this isn't artificial twinning here. Which one is older? Georgia by a minute if that's important to you. Do twins run in the family? This question is always hard for me to answer because the short answer is yes, my husband is a twin. The real answer is he doesn't play any part in whether or not we have twins. Every woman in the world has a chance at having identical twins. It's a matter and chance of an already fertilized egg splitting. For fraternal twins, the mother has to release two eggs at the same ...
