every life matters Q&A

i am honored today to be featured in a meaningful blog series called

Every Life Matters

by the fabulous Katie from Dotson Love

her zest for life is contagious

and her mission to help the world see that every life matters resonates with my own passions

read my full interview Q&A here

where i answer some fun and tough questions like...

how i keep focused on the things that matter instead of the things that scream the loudest

how i've overcome times when i have felt like i haven't mattered

what our family fights over

and of course what i am passionate most about

be sure to say hi over there 

and even stay to read some of the other powerful interviews of some incredible women

our surprising news

to borrow from a classic movie scene
if we woke up with our heads sewn to the carpet
we wouldn't be more surprised than we are right now

another little person will be joining our family

yep, you guessed it

we’re pregnant

if you’re shocked

you can bet you are in good company

it still seems surreal

the chances of this little one joining us are pretty much one in a million

as i have processed this news over the last few weeks

i have passed through every emotion possible

mike has been my calming influence

a few things are for sure

this child was meant to come to our family

it will be loved with all the squeezes and snuggles that a baby can receive

the Lord must think i have a lot more to give

He will mostly definitely provide what we need as he has in every uncertain circumstance of this our Johnson Journey
