    Thanks for sharing Jen:). So many of us can benefit from “checking in” regulalry w ourselves and our husbands, both business/school wise, and spiritually. I struggle w a “routine rollercoaster” as we have come to call it, my own battle with depression and seasons of burnout, scriptures kept in my back pocket to keep my “thoughts captive” have always been the best defense I can find to keep keeping on to the next thing. Graciously, God has give strength to do it with Joy on a lot of days!

    Thankful for you heart to share and bless others in doing so. Us mommas need to stick together, and being real with one another is one of the best ways to do it! THANK you, Jennifer! Praising and praying for you today:).

      Nikky, I’m so sorry this wasn’t posted sooner. It was buried in my email, awaiting approval *facepalm*

      I’ve been feeling called to a prayer/scripture habit this Lent; one that will last beyond this time of preparation…it looks like I needed to hear your encouraging words today!

    Jen,

    Thank you so much for sharing. I needed this video in a bad way. Life has been hard lately and you helped me more than you will know. I know this took time to film, but your time, efforts, wisdom and thoughts are much appreciated.
