Kedron and I have enjoyed hearing the stories come home from school recently. Little Miss has a very good friend who happens to be a boy. He’s super sweet and apparently has a crush on her. The other day she came home from school and announced, “K told me he loved me and kissed me [...]
It’s been a busy few weeks in our household. We’re in the third week of school, and the routine is setting in for everyone. I’ve talked to a few other moms and we all agree – we feel like we live in the kitchen. Breakfast served, breakfast cleared, pack lunches, get everyone out the door, [...]

This past weekend, I had the privilege of attending Circle of Friends’ conference with Carol Kent “Between a Rock and a Grace Place.” My friend Susie and I were so excited to leave our young children in the capable hands of their fathers and have a mini girls weekend away. We set out mid afternoon [...]

I’ve never heard T-Rex giggle so much. Ever. Apparently it was a great first day of school. How could it not be? We started out with blueberry pancakes topped with strawberries! T-Rex didn’t say hardly a word at breakfast and gulped his pancakes down so fast. Little Miss had to be constantly reminded to stop [...]
Or at least not cry for very long! These two cuties are headed to school on Tuesday. For T-Rex, it’s his first time going to school. Riding the bus. Eating lunch in the cafeteria. All day. Three days a week. Last week we met the teachers and delivered the school supplies. We were running out [...]
Amelia lives in Michigan and has been married to her high school sweetheart Kedron for almost 14 years.
Amelia started pursuing her love of writing after she and her husband moved to Florida and she left her job in marketing to stay home with their firstborn. With family and friends a thousand miles away, she found blogging the daily stories of life to be a great way to stay in touch and recognize how God's story intersects with our daily stories.
The Rhodes recently moved back to Michigan where Amelia stays at home with their two young children, Little Miss Sunshine and T-Rex. She also is a contributor at Our Circle of Friends.
