We are sisters {Courtney and Corynne} who grew up in Sunny Southern California and in 2010 we both moved out of state and are now residing in small towns in different states. We plan to share our experiences with country living, our love of cooking, our occasional craftiness, our dedication to being fit, our amazing family, and our Faith in God!

Stop. Pause. Rejoice
Stop, pause and rejoice is my new saying. My devotional last week was based on those three words. When your flustered or upset just stop, pause what you're doing, and rejoice. This is so fitting for me and Tru. Being a mommy is the most demanding, difficult, never ending and exhausting job BUT it is the BEST job in the world!!! I'm so priviliged to be Tru's mommy. It's truly the greatest gift! It amazes me just thinking that God blessed us with our perfect little boy, to be his parents and raise him up to be a Tru man of God.
Tru isn't the best napper and he's still getting up 2 times during the night. Yes, I said 2 times and he's 17 weeks. My boy likes to eat! So there's times when I get frustrated and just want him to sleep, but I now stop, pause and rejoice to our Lord Jesus Christ and thank him for our Tru. It has helped me SO much and I wanted to share it to you in hopes that it will help you to.
Deuteronomy 26:11 "You shall rejoice in al the good things the Lord your God has given to you and your household."
I continue to do the 'stop, pause and rejoice' and it has now become a habit (I even do it when I get frustrated with our dog Reagan). And that's the kind of habit worth forming.
