Don’t stop Believing Despite!

12 years. 🤍

It’s hard to believe that 12 years ago today, I held you for the first time and saw the manifestation of His goodness in all that you were.

I could never have imagined then what this journey would unfold into or how your life, though far too short, would forever solidify in me what it means to Believe Despite.

There have been hard-fought moments, baby girl.
So many.

This road has not been easy. There has been heartbreak, disappointment, grief, questions, and days when believing felt almost impossible.

But I am so grateful for your life.
So grateful I got to be your Momma.
So grateful for everything God has taught me because you were here.

And today, 12 years later, I find myself just weeks away from relaunching the Believe Despite Sisterhood.

A place for women walking through the hard things.

A place to be encouraged when life doesn’t look like you thought it would.
When prayers seem unanswered.
When disappointment comes.
When your heart breaks.
When you’re tired.
When you’re still waiting.

A place to remind one another that we can still believe in His goodness…even here.

Your life changed mine, sweet girl.

And I pray that because you lived, because you are loved, and because your story became part of mine, other women will find the courage to keep believing too.

Happy 12th birthday in Heaven, baby girl. 🤍

I will Believe Despite. Always.
