Graduation Day!
Our oldest daughter is graduating Physician Assistant school today. There will be no pomp and circumstance and there will be no formal send off. They just finished their rotations, took their final exams and left the building. Yes, she still has to take boards and get her license, etc..but after being in school forever she…
Fun as a Non-Negotiable
As I felt my Sunday-osis kicking in yesterday it occurred to me that there is an approach I frequently have to life that may be far more habitual than intentional. I have a habit of just grinding it out, whatever it is, because I know that I can. More than a year ago, in a…
Time to Listen
We are not sharing any other blogs this week (or may be longer) as our voices are not the ones that need to be heard. Our white, female perspectives are not the ones that need representation. We strongly encourage you to begin to educate yourself (if you haven’t already), as we educate ourselves. Be respectful…
Memorial Day
Today, we mark Memorial Day, maybe not in our usual way, but still holding space to remember those we’ve lost. We give thanks for their service and sacrifice. Sunshine & Sarcasm, Lowi & G
Acceptance
As is always the case, we talk about the things we ourselves are working through. In fact, I heard Kyle Cease once say that we should pay attention to the advice we give others, it’s usually for ourselves. So with that all being said, this may just end up being for myself solely. This concept…
It’s Only a Mile
Just how hard can a mile be? That has been the question floating around amongst the Miller, Barton, Brown and Saghi families since Easter. And we’ve all discovered our own personal answer. I think it’s safe to say when bravado and ego are left behind everyone’s answer is the same: HARD. More specifically, harder than…
The Sun Will Rise Again
Over the last few weeks, there have been moments, maybe even days, that have felt like we were in total darkness. This will pass and the sun will rise again. Sunshine & Sarcasm, Lowi & G
Using Pause 2020 to Edit Your Life
It isn’t very often when you get the opportunity in life to take a full stop. And nearly everyone else does, too. But here we are in 2020 and there is a collective pause. Regardless of your thoughts on the lull in the action, you get to decide how you’d like to use it. We…
The Thief
Theodore Roosevelt said that comparison is the thief of joy. While I believe that to be true, I also believe that comparison robs us of much more. It takes away our time, peace, confidence, self-esteem, gratitude and overall mental well-being. Comparison has become so much more than a sideways glance, fleeting desire or wishful thought….
Worth the Crash
It’s been a whirlwind the last 2 weeks. I was on a stress high, then a wedding high and then… I crashed. And hard. You all know how it goes. You have all the preparations and last-minute purchases before you leave for an out-of-town wedding. And you’re trying to cram 5 days of work into…
Congratulations!
Our friends and family gathered in Tennessee over the weekend to celebrate the marriage of Sydney and Jake. It was a beautiful few days full of priceless memories, more than a few tears, and immense joy. All sunshine and love, Lowi & G
