October 26, 2018October 25, 2018 cassiepattillo

Hey there, friends! It's been a while (well, I guess it's been since we've officially announced our adoption) since I have done an adoption update here on the blog. We've shared on social media some things (Check out Diaries of a Daughter on Facebook to stay up to date with what we have going on!),… Continue reading Adoption Update- What’s a home study?

“I Miss Nana”- Explaining Cancer to my Toddler

October 18, 2018October 18, 2018 cassiepattillo

"Mommy, when will Nana come back?" Hunter asked me as he sat in her chair.  "Nana" is the name I have taught my boys to call my mom.  I'm not sure why I chose "Nana"; it just seemed like a good name for her the first time Hunter was able to ask me who she… Continue reading “I Miss Nana”- Explaining Cancer to my Toddler

Connection Tips

October 3, 2018 cassiepattillo

Here's the most obvious statement of the day- life is crazy!  Every mom, dad, student, and person can relate.  We all have busy schedules, long to-do lists, and not enough hours in the day.  Recently, I shared a blog post where I discussed lessons I learned when I spent a few days not being connected… Continue reading Connection Tips

Disconnected, Withering, and Grace.

September 19, 2018 cassiepattillo

It's not something I'm proud of, but I spent too many days not fully abiding in the Vine recently.  Honestly, it's vacation that gets me every time.  Not in my normal routine, my time with Jesus, unfortunately, slips to the back burner.  Though I had neglected my time in the Word and prayer, the Lord… Continue reading Disconnected, Withering, and Grace.

Disney Tips- From Our Trip to Yours.

September 14, 2018 cassiepattillo

You could say that I'm a "Disney girl".  I grew up visiting Magic Kingdom fairly often, convinced my husband that Disney would be the perfect place to celebrate our first wedding anniversary, and have dreamed of taking our boys since they were in the womb.  That dream finally came true this past summer.  We took… Continue reading Disney Tips- From Our Trip to Yours.

Prayers from Colossians for the School Year.

August 29, 2018 cassiepattillo

The calendar is nearing September.  Target has covered their aisles in back to school supplies, which are now very quickly being transformed into fall and Halloween aisles.  And so yes, that can only mean one thing- school is back in full swing.  We've traded our lazy days of summer for the alarm clocks and homework… Continue reading Prayers from Colossians for the School Year.

7 Things that I Would Tell My Newlywed Self.

August 7, 2018 cassiepattillo

Yesterday, Jack and I celebrated 7 years of marriage.  Our day consisted of ministry stuff and a cancelled t-ball game, which led to a spontaneous family night at Olive Garden (we are looking forward to an actual date night this weekend).  But while our day wasn't super glamorous, we were living the dream that we… Continue reading 7 Things that I Would Tell My Newlywed Self.

In Christ (a #FridayFavorite).

July 20, 2018 cassiepattillo

Happy Friday, friends!  I was thinking through of what to post for #FridayFavorites today, and there were tons of options rolling through my head.  I mean, really, the Lord has been so kind to give us wonderful, Gospel-centered resources!  But I began doing my personal Bible study, and I could not get out of my… Continue reading In Christ (a #FridayFavorite).

Where Is Your Mindset?

July 16, 2018 cassiepattillo

“Set your minds on things that are above, not on things that are on earth,” is what the Lord commands us through Paul's writing in Colossians 3:2 (ESV). But as I studied this passage of Scripture the other day, my mind was honestly set on everything else but things that are above. My mind was… Continue reading Where Is Your Mindset?

We’re Adopting!

July 10, 2018 cassiepattillo

The Pattillo family has some big news to share... We are so excited about this... and maybe just a little nervous... but mostly, so very excited!  Adoption is something that Jack and I have always had tucked away in the back of our hearts from the get-go, but we've really spent the last year or… Continue reading We’re Adopting!
