Union Redskins, Class of 2006 ❤️🖤

Reunion weekend was truly one for the books! It was so good seeing everyone, catching up, and reconnecting with some of my girls after so many years. ❤️ Realizing how much we’ve missed each other and that we want to be more intentional about doing life together—with each other and our families—made this weekend even more special.

Here’s to the memories we made, the friendships we rekindled, and all that the next 10 years will bring. 🥂

Class of ’06, see y’all at the 30th! ❤️🖤 by @mrscroffie

Happy 18th Birthday to my handsome young man.

It has been one of the greatest blessings of my life to watch you grow over these last 12 years. From the little boy I met at five years old to the strong, thoughtful, capable young man you are today — the transformation has been beautiful to witness.

This past year especially, I’ve seen you mature, take responsibility, and step into yourself with confidence. I am so incredibly proud of the way you carry yourself and the direction you’re headed.

As you step into adulthood, I hope you always remember the values that have been poured into you — integrity, kindness, resilience, and strength. Apply them in every room you walk into. Be the best version of yourself for you first, and never dim your light for anyone. The world needs exactly who you are.

Continue to uplift others. Continue to lead with character. And always, always be there to support and protect your sisters. They will forever look to you.
Know that I love you, I believe in you, and I am cheering you on in every season of your life.

Happy 18th birthday. 💙 by @mrscroffie

Last week, the baby of the bunch turned five, and this past weekend we celebrated her beautiful milestone birthday. It was nothing short of magical.

My little princess always tells me that when she grows up, she wants to be the next Misty Copeland, so it was only fitting to throw her a tutu ballerina birthday party. Watching her twirl with joy in a room filled with love was everything I could have dreamed of and more.

Family traveled from out of town, her friends showed up to celebrate her, and every moment felt so intentional and special. These five years of her life have been deeply meaningful and inspiring. To watch her grow, to see her fully embrace who she is, to hear her speak up so boldly and advocate for herself and others — it fills my heart in ways I can’t fully describe.

She is such a warm light. To know her is to love her. To be around her is to smile endlessly, to laugh freely, and to witness the beauty God so carefully created in her.

I want to extend a heartfelt thank you to Eva, our beautiful melanated ballerina, who came and showed my baby what her dreams can look like in real life.

A special thank you to @mabri_cc for the beautiful custom cookies. Beautiful and delicious 😋

My heart is full. What a gift these five years have been. 💕🩰 by @mrscroffie

As a parent, I take immense pride in always showing up for my kids. Being a PTO mom has allowed me to help ensure that their school experiences are ones they’ll always remember—knowing their mom made sure every event, ceremony, and activity mattered. I want them to know that I’m just as invested in their education inside the classroom as I am outside of it, if not more than they are themselves.

Today was bittersweet. Today was my big baby’s last middle school dance. My PTO family and I did an amazing job making this year’s Sweetheart Dance one for the books—extra special, especially since a few of us will be transitioning alongside our 8th graders to high school. Freshman… that’s still something I’m processing.

My baby girl even saved me a dance and didn’t mind that I was there—granted, I’m at every event, but this one meant so much to me. She looked absolutely beautiful.

Forever showing up,

Happy 38th Birthday to Me!

It’s amazing to sit back and reflect on my 38 years of life. I’ve experienced great moments and not-so-great moments. I’ve had seasons of joy, seasons of heartbreak, moments that were traumatic, and moments that were absolutely beautiful. And through it all, every experience has shaped me into the woman I am today.

I’m grateful for my village — the people who surround me, pour into me, and choose me day in and day out. Some of you have been with me since I first stepped foot in Oklahoma as a complete transplant. I’ve lost some along the way and gained some along the way, but every connection has played its part. I truly believe everything happens for a reason.

I’m thankful for my growth — mentally, spiritually, emotionally, professionally, as a parent, as a wife, as a friend, and as a woman who is learning to understand herself and her “why,” and to be unapologetic about it. If you know me, then you know my heart. Even when things come out wrong or get interpreted differently, you understand my intent and that it always comes from a good place.

I can honestly sit back and smile because in these 38 years… I have lived. And there is still so much more life for me to live.

Thank you to my husband — you are absolutely amazing. You continue to show up in ways most people wouldn’t. Thank you for waking up at 4 AM to make the house look beautiful and make my day special before I even opened my eyes. Thank you for the breakfast, the love, the support, your fatherhood, and the foundation you are for our family. I appreciate you more than words can express.

Thank you to my children for allowing me to mother you, love you, and grow with you. Thank you for loving me unconditionally through the good, the bad, the indifferent — and even through my mommy “raging” moments. Your grace is everything.

So here’s to 38 years lived and 38 more to come.
Thank you, thank you, thank you.

Happy Birthday to me. by @mrscroffie

Man, where do I even begin? I guess the best place to start is by saying congratulations to my best friend Daniel and my new sister-in-love, Sherby. I am beyond happy for you both, and I’m truly overjoyed that you found each other.

Daniel, you deserve every blessing that’s come your way. You are an incredible man, a devoted father, a loyal friend—and above all, a man of God who allows Him to lead. That foundation is what makes everything else you do so meaningful.

Sherby, you are nothing short of amazing. The sisterhood we’ve built is a love story in itself, and I’m so grateful to have you in my life. Thank you for showing up and showing out. Thank you for loving Daniel the way he deserves to be loved—for showing him what real love, healthy communication, true partnership, and unwavering support look like.

Thank you for loving my Goddaughter so effortlessly and wholeheartedly. Thank you for giving her a front-row seat to what a strong, beautiful union and a loving home truly look like. The experiences, the love, and the example you’ve given her are a blessing.

To two of the most loving, grounded, and domestic people I know—I love you both. I’m incredibly happy and even more blessed to call you family. by @mrscroffie

To my two who introduced me to motherhood—thank you for allowing me to be your foundation, to provide you with love and support, while also being your drill sergeant and biggest cheerleader. We have grown so much together, and it has been a beautiful love story.

To the one who changed my life forever—you are my heart living outside of my chest in human form. God knew exactly what I needed, and you came right on time. You are the best unexpected gift I could have ever received, and for that, I am truly thankful. I give all glory to God. You are not mine—you are His. So, God, thank You for allowing me to mother this amazing gift You created. I am truly honored.

To the Croffie kids—you are the best part of me. You are my "why." You are the reason I’m so intentional about the way I love you, support you, hold you accountable, and commit myself to building you up by giving you all the cheat codes to this game called life. You are my greatest investment, and I will continue to pour all I have into you, believing in the beautiful return on that investment.

Thank you for giving me grace.
I love you—Auri, Mariah, and Princess Amara Imani. by @mrscroffie
