maybe it’s the time of the month. maybe I am just a feelings person. maybe I’m just emotional. maybe all 3, but this week really got me.
everything made me cry from my reading for the 7 bible study to toy story 3. and everything in between.
there has just been a lot to celebrate this week. a lot of community coming together, a lot of reflection, remembering, and story sharing.
mainly, I was just an onlooker on these events, but I couldn’t help but feel deeply moved.
I experienced a community of believers who are walking together coming together to celebrate adoption + world down syndrome day, getting letters from friends who are answering Jesus call to spread the good news and love on his people all over the world, and hearing stories of boldness and bravery. they all brought me to tears and brought me closer to my Jesus. made me realize this life is NOT about me. made me love and appreciate the BODY of christ more than ever, and realize that we weren’t meant to do this thing called life alone. we are all in this together!
that’s really all I have. I’m just grateful and honored to be a fly on the wall of so many peoples stories. I have a few of those I read in blog posts this week I thought you might like…..happy sunday night!
just a few really good posts from this past week…..

Hey, I'm Wynne!
Hi, friend! First, I truly am so giddy that you are here. I want you to know I believe in you and all the ways you are growing towards living a more intentional life. I genuinely hope you are encouraged from our time together here.
A little about me, I’m a type 7 on the enneagram, a total extrovert + people lover, entrepreneur, connector, storyteller, people gatherer, and passionate wife, mama + friend. I feel most alive when I’m exploring new places and surrounded by people I love. Give me a day in the outdoors disconnected from wifi, and I am a happy girl. I run on oat milk lattes, Jesus, gratitude journaling and kitchen dance parties with my four kids.
Welcome, come on in!
It’s your mama heart! I think our capacity to feel expands when our hearts expand to love our babies. I feel ya. Me=emotional wreck. Love you
🙂 you are so right dana!!! isn’t it cool how god made us that way? love you!
some weeks are just like that. When God overwhelmes the heart. sending love friend.
I’ve really been learning about the truth of the body of Christ too. Like if I am sad and want Jesus to give me a hug- it’s His Body that can. And it’s literally Him doing it. For some reason, I just never put 2 and 2 together. But now that I am, it’s just a beautiful thing 🙂
i love that ashley! the body of christ IS a beautiful thing!!!
Your so right. We were MADE for relationship. With Christ and with others… Thanks for sharing

You’d have to be a robot not to cry at Toy Story 3.
But this is a very sweet post. God just gets our attention sometimes, doesn’t He? I’m so thankful for that.
Megan – oh yes! such a sweet movie! thank you 🙂
