Hi, reader!

I am so glad to have you stop by. Let me introduce myself: My name is Ashley. I am married to my high school sweetheart, Joel, and we are blessed with three beautiful children: Charlotte, Micah and Andrew. (And a dog, Georgia.)

I became a first-time mom in 2018 when my baby girl was born prematurely. We spent some time in the NICU, but she came home after a few weeks happy and healthy. Three years later, we found ourselves back in the NICU after my mono di twin pregnancy with our boys.

If I’m honest, the road to motherhood was not what I envisioned–and much of what our family has walked through the past few years was not what I envisioned either. But, this is the life the Lord has blessed me with.

My experiences, my people, my opportunities–it all continues to stretch me in more ways than one. As I journey, I hope to learn from, show up for, listen to, extend grace and love to myself, my husband and kids, and those around me.
