2 cross-country moves, multiple job transitions, lessons learned, vision clarified, countless beautiful memories, & little Rev growing up before our eyes… Contrary to our nature, we have been risk-takers, plan-changers, & completely surrendered in our “yes” to Jesus in this season. What a year it has been so far. #2024 by @thekennedygrace

I just found this post in my drafts from a couple of months ago when we celebrated Chris, Sydney-Joan, and the arrival of Wesley Wren, and I simply can’t help but share (with the addition of a few updates at the end). In case you were wondering… Baby Wesley is mesmerizingly magical in every way.

These are the golden years. ✨

A collection of quick sketches I did for our home, documenting our journey from dating to parenthood.

Rev turned one yesterday, and I couldn’t seem to choose the right photos or words to express how challenging, wonderful, and simply magical this year has been...maybe these little drawings will suffice.

She is our biggest blessing. #reveriepsalm #one #birthday #drawingsketch taken in Sarasota, Florida by @thekennedygrace

My Mom gave me a bag of her baby dresses from the 70’s and you KNOW I had to get some photos of Rev in them. 🥹

So thankful for Ashley’s friendship over the years & the gift of these photos to document such a beautiful season.

*long post - part 1/2*

This time last year, I was busting at the seams (literally and figuratively). Looking back on these photos, I can feel the intense weight I felt then. Not just the physical weight of a child ready to come into the world, but the emotional weight: the heaviness, the uncertainty- the hopeful expectancy and the deep-rooted dread of birth.

If I’m honest, reflecting upon that season of pregnancy and that version of myself makes me want to crawl out of my skin and disembody completely.

If I’m really honest, it has taken a year of mental and physical healing to sit in the emotions of the memory.

Something that was supposed to be magical, beautiful and miraculous- the creation of a new life- felt a whole lot like death.

Isn’t that often how it feels when God is doing a new thing?

+

First came the death of my control.

I had always been able to push through severe illness and function in past situations. This “mental fortitude” and “control” was something I wore as a badge, a prized personality trait… and suddenly it was stripped away from me.

Then, the shame set in.

I was ashamed that my body reacted so adversely to pregnancy when others seem so unaffected. And then I was ashamed that my mind was so fixated upon the dream pregnancy I felt I “deserved.”

I had done all the “right” things, hadn’t I? We waited until marriage. We had devoted our lives to ministry. Why was I suffering so intensely for so long?

My transactional, works-based, limiting theology had to die.

In truth, ALL that once was- my way of life, my view of myself, my schedule, my theology, my marriage, my SLEEP (😵‍💫)- all of it was being redefined, and all of it was being put to death in some way or another.

No matter how it looked to those standing from afar, it wasn’t graceful or easy. It was evident to anyone in close proximity that I was being made into something new. God was bringing forth not just one, but two new creations.

And the process was painful.
