Your joy is indescribable. The way that your lips curve just so and how your giggle fills your face. Your joy is unbelievable. I have watched you bring joy to a room. In everywhere you go and every place you occupy, you bring laughter and you bring hope. Little one, you’ve started melting hearts and they...

This is my letter to the woman who is afraid that she’ll never measure up and that all she’ll ever make are mistakes. This is my letter to the mamas who are nervous every time they hold, feed, and soothe their babies. Concerned that there is something that their baby is missing. This is my letter to the ones...

Candid photography is raw. It is uncut moments in time. It is a person getting on the bus. It is a split second where someone is doing something in their natural environment and not posing for a camera. It is not perfect photographs featuring perfect posing and lighting...

Sometimes life doesn’t look like how we imagined it would look. Sometimes things take longer than we originally hoped. We dream of motherhood from such a young age, practicing with our dolls and siblings. And in some cases, those prayers are answered differently than we expected...

There is something about watching a baby sleep that reminds me of purpose. There are so many of us who live our lives seeing purpose as busyness, activity and doing-doing-doing. But for babies, they have so much purpose in their sleeping and in their resting...

I will never forget the feeling when I found out we were pregnant with you. It was as if my heart seemed to almost be lodged in my throat and anticipation started like a fire in my bones. This entire time, I have wanted you. Yes, I was worried that I wouldn't be a good mom, but there has never been a moment...

Most often, home is found in the hearts of those whom we love. And you'll always have a home in ours. From the minute we heard of your coming, we carved it out for you. The moment you arrived and we met face to face, that space for you only began to grow inside of us...

Joy is contagious. There is something about joy that when we see it on another face and when we hear it in another’s giggles, it gets in our bones and bubbles up and before we know it, we’ve caught the joy too. And I think there is a way to create such a standard of joy in our lives where we are able to live out...

Baby, sometimes I wish I could take a moment and glimpse into how you see the world. I wonder how everything looks to you. I wonder what you’re thinking when you see me come into your room at night and how it makes you feel when I rock you to sleep. I wonder whether there are things you want to...

Our lives are filled with many things. They are overflowing with relationships, commitments, responsibilities and lists of things to do. There are the things that bring us great joy and the things that just need to get done.

There is a magic and a miracle to this season. That amidst Santa, brightly coloured lights, sugary cookies and nativity scenes, there is this magic and this miracle. And sometimes it is almost like if you let your life get too chaotic or even too noisy, you might miss it. You might miss the wonder and the divinity of...
