Love the poem about worry. I've been a worrier all my life. It's been interesting having an adopted child who's suffered deep trauma and has severe anxiety. Because I have anxiety it's been a bonding trait. LOL It's something we can work on together and it makes her feel that she's not alone. It also strengthens my faith in God because I feel that he put us together for a reason.
When I came back to comment I had somehow attached the ending of the second poem to the first one in my mind. I love how the themes are really the same thing from different angles. I hate giving up control, too.
but pulling at one piece
makes the other more stuck.
I lay my tangle at His feet,
say, “it’s too messed up.
——love this image so much!! All of this was so so good!!
Awww thank you Joy! I've had this image tucked away for well over a year, not sure what to do with it. So glad to hear you love it!!
Oh my.........what a creative cascade of words, Becca!
"It’s
mercy
all
the
way
down
and
I
hate
giving
up
control. "
Thanks Jody! 💛

This is beautiful. Thank you for sharing 💛
Love love love, my friend.
When I was pregnant with our third, I resolved to say yes to every offer to help. It was humbling. But I'm so glad I did ♥️
Awww thank you! So glad to hear this. I keep telling myself the same thing, "I accept all offers of help!"
So good. Holding onto the “it’s mercy all the way down” ❤️
Awww thank you Olivia! 💛
Goodness I loved all of these!! “Decluttering while pregnant with my third baby” resonated especially
Thank you so much Megan!! 💛
