Welcome to My Blog
Welcome to my crazy life! My goal with this blog is to help inspire and empower you, and for us to become best friends! I hope you find inspiration from my mom fails to my beauty tips. I’m not perfect and life can get crazy but we can learn from it and have fun doing so. I want to empower you by sharing with you how valuable and special you are in the eyes of God through my inspirational and devotional post. They are my truths, my revelations and encounters I’ve had. Through it all, I hope we can be friends. I believe no one should do life alone, we are meant to do life together so I hope that as I write and share, that you feel like you are not alone but you have found a friend in me.
And So It Begins…

Inspirational: Don’t do life alone
Life for Micah and I hasn’t always been easy. When we moved to Dallas it was a new place where we didn’t know anyone. We were nearly-broke newlyweds. We had to sleep on an air mattress for weeks, we didn’t have jobs, and even Taco Bell was a...
