Once upon a time, Talia (age 3) did not like baths. If you tried to give her a bath, she would scream and cry. She would hang her head over the side of the tub so you couldn’t wash her hair. It used to be a fight to get her to take a bath. But…
This Sunday will mark one year from my first post on my blog (which, back then, was in Blogger instead of WordPress). I originally started it to help me learn to write consistently after hearing Jaquelle Ferris’s (who was then Jaquelle Crowe) story of how starting a blog helped her. My first post was called…
Hello! Today I’m doing a blog swap with my friend, Emily, who I met through American Heritage Girls. She is also a fellow member of the Young Writer’s Workshop (I roped her in ;)) and recently started blogging at More Than a Church Kid. You probably know the drill by now: by “blog swap,” I…

Resolutions are still…
Hello everyone and welcome to the first post of 2020! Today’s post is actually a guest post by S. G. Willoughby! She’s a fellow member of the Young Writer’s Workshop and the blogger of sgwilloughby.com. I was reliable. I never cried in front of anyone who wasn’t related to me. I was an athlete and…
Wow. In just four days, we’ll be starting a new decade. 2020. A new year means a lot of things–a new calendar, a new semester of school, a new Bible reading plan–but one of the biggest, in my opinion, is a chance to analyze ourselves and refocus. One of the ways I’m doing that this…
Hello everyone! Today we have a guest post by Coralie, a fellow member of the Young Writer’s Workshop and the blogger of GraceBought! Christmas is my favorite holiday of the year. I absolutely love Christmas, through and through. I’m that annoying kid who plays Christmas music too early—like all year round, too early. In fact,…
