There’s something refreshing about turning the page to a new month.
A fresh start. A reset. A quiet invitation to pause and ask:
“What do I want this month to hold?”
For us, June is full of family, celebration, and intentional memories.
Our daughter turns eight this month—a milestone that tugs at my heart. It’s wild to think how fast time moves. She may not be diving into chapter books just yet, but what she does create with her hands and imagination leaves me in awe. She’s always crafting something—building, designing, dreaming. Watching her grow has been one of my life’s greatest gifts.
We’re also heading to the mountains for a family vacation, and we are so ready for the slower pace, cooler air, and special memories waiting for us. One of the biggest highlights? Visiting Tweetsie Railroad—complete with a Thomas the Train appearance! It’s one of those trips that I know will be remembered for years, full of wide-eyed wonder and giggles from the kids (and probably us too).
And there’s more to celebrate:
Father’s Day—a chance to honor the men who lead with quiet strength and faithful love
My dad’s birthday
My grandpa’s birthday
All reminders that legacy matters. That presence is a gift. That generations shape the stories we’re still writing.

Slowing Down with Purpose
Amidst the celebrations and travel, I’m intentionally choosing to slow down this month.
To linger a little longer at the breakfast table.
To turn the phone off during sunset.
To say yes to more laughter and no to unnecessary pressure.
Because June isn’t just a busy month—it’s a meaningful one. And I want to be fully here for it.

Here’s What I’m Focusing On This Month:
Being present with my kids
Wrapping up our homeschool rhythm gently
Prioritizing wellness (even in the midst of celebration!)
Soaking up every bit of family time
And anchoring each day in gratitude

Whether your June looks full or quiet, I hope you carve out space for what matters most.
You don’t need to do it all. You just need to be faithful with what’s in front of you.
Here’s to a month of joy, grace, and beautiful, everyday moments.
Happy June, friend.
