Welcome to my little writing corner. I count my many blessings to be a cherished wife and an ever-learning-loving-growing mother to 3 amazing children this side of Heaven and a precious little boy in Heaven. Together as a family we pastor a precious church community called Redeeming Hope Church. I've had the privilege of loving and following Jesus Christ since my earliest memories as a child. No matter what I've gone through in life, He has always been so present. At heart, I'm an encourager ... so this is a place where I get to wear my heart on my sleeve and share my journey of learning to live a life of love in action.

Wordless Wednesday

I am away from my sweet man and 2 princesses who I miss so very much, but I do have these 3 treasure nieces to lavish my love upon ...


All my love xxx

On a lighter note... love your Christmas tradition... when you animate a story... it just comes to life for everyone!! :)

Reasons to Celebrate

I am quickly typing this in between trying to pack up for Cape, and while packing I am having this to celebrate :0) What to celebrate you may ask ... well you would be amazed at how many amazing blessings you will discover of how good God has been to you when you start looking back and remembering what He has walked you through. Today I am celebrating many wonderful things! I am celebrating how no matter how dark certain moments have appeared to be, His light has ALWAYS broken through!!! Hope & Love have ALWAYS overcome the deepest of fears.  I am celebrating the precious family He has surrounded Brett and I with and the amazing friends and loved ones who have cheered us on and been praying us through. I celebrate how He has cocooned both my daughters hearts with the same peace He has cocooned Brett and my heart with and sheltered our precious family in constant hope of abundant life! I celebrate that as an extended family He has faithfully taught us all how to walk in victory

We are Seeing the Miracles Unfold!

Precious friends and family ... we are starting to see the miracles unfold! We just KNOW that we are living in the miracle :0) Yesterday we had a scan with the specialist who discovered and diagnosed all of Zac's heart defects in August. It's been about 6 weeks since the day we heard the horrible news. As you may remember, the defects she discovered that day in "that" heart were so complex ... not only one defect, but multiple! There was the issue of only 1 chamber; only seeing one major valve from the heart to the lungs where there must be 2 and then the complication of not being able to clearly see the arch of the aorta. What she saw of it, as well as  several other specialists, it looked too narrow and underdeveloped from what we could understand. When we came back from that first scan and spoke with our friend and paediatrician ... this was one of his biggest concerns. The aortic arch is so important in the functioning of the heart!  So before we went for the

So much Love even When it's hard to Breath

On the Friday the 30th September at 16:47, our precious son entered this world with the most precious cries heralding his grand arrival. Hearing his voice made our hearts leap with joy unspeakable. He weighed in at 2.32 kgs, 46cm long and his head 31cm. We got to hold him immediately after being weighed ... moments we will treasure in our hearts for all eternity. Precious friends, the last 3 days have been filled with so many life changing emotions since then. As we process as a family, I will try to express as I am able just some of what we have lived through this weekend. We are still very much feeling like we are in the middle of something so much greater than just ourselves. It will take time to settle. I have the most beautiful photos to share with everyone of the amazing 21 hours we shared with our precious Zac David Robinson. This son of ours will forever have shaped and changed our hearts. When I am released from hospital and have my pc and the emotional strength, I will shar
