Happy New Year from the Daws family and may you sense God’s nearness, love and richest blessings in the coming year!

I love Autumn. I love everything about it. The smells, leaves changing and crunching beneath my feet, going to a GA Tech football game, bundling up, chili on the stove, pumpkin candles. Everything.
I was just thinking how in four Autumns, so much has changed. I am a reflector by nature and now as Autumn rolls [...]

Happy first birthday, sweet Hudson. How can it already have been a year?

We love this little guy so very much. He is the sweetest, most mellow baby and has stolen the heart of his momma. He has brought so much joy to our lives. I’m so glad he was in God’s plan for us.

We are beyond grateful for the perfect gift that he is. And that just three years ago, after doctors thought we’d never have children, we now have two gorgeous sons.
My God keeps His [...]

And, it’s a very exciting life in that we never know what a day may [...]

My new favorite thing is an iced caramel latte or iced caramel macchiato. Nonfat. Decaf. Half a shot. Light on the ice.  In fact, I slurped down one of them yesterday during an uplifting – no kid – coffee date with a friend. [...]

We made our way to Atlanta for our first trip back since we moved to LA. Everyone who moves away has to have a first trip back. And to be honest, I was fearful of it. I knew I [...]
