To my parents...

...a happy, happy anniversary to you! I won’t write a sappy honorarium to how perfect our family is or how seamless your marriage may have been. But I will write about what it means to be a daughter in the family... Keep Reading...

our past month

As I was settling down for a quick nap before a pre-house-showing cleaning frenzy, I began thinking back over the past 30 days. Amazed and thankful for the ways Jesus has held on to my heart and sanity through a... Keep Reading...

"FREEEEEDOOOOM!!!!"

Yes, the boys get a whole 48 hours free from their parents starting tomorrow evening. 48 hours of cake for breakfast, late night ice cream runs, and general spoiledness all around. If their aunt Diggy and my parents have anything... Keep Reading...

we didn't fly to mexico...

...although we really, really wanted to. With our kiddos safe in the care of my parents this weekend and the blissful freedom of being alone together taking us back to our dating days, it was very hard to not “miss”... Keep Reading...

post date night letdown

It’s 2:20pm on a Thursday afternoon. I am still in my pajamas, sitting on the couch, drinking cold, insanely strong coffee from the french press that was leftover from this morning, finishing off a bag of Pirate Booty, and finally... Keep Reading...

Aslan and aslan.

evenings at the park

We’re making the most of this gorgeous southern weather and spending as many weeknight evenings as possible outdoors. Cleveland Park offers vast stretches of romping room for the boys and grassy spots by the river for Matthew and I on... Keep Reading...

absence

So much for my macho bravado. We actually really do miss Matthew around the house. As nice as it is to have my domain back, I miss hearing him laugh out loud at random emails and cheer himself on as... Keep Reading...

recovery

We survived the whirlwind of Christmas and the illness that swept through the house claiming 8 of the 9 family members as victims. The highly anticipated restful, relaxing holiday with my family was anything but that. Our first night away... Keep Reading...

happy anniversary to me

Today is our 4th. I am a lucky girl. Married to not only an insanely creative and talented web-savy man (with insanely creative and generous web friends), but an incredibly sweet one at that. Check out my all-time favorite anniversary... Keep Reading...

beer-stained napkin

The Blue Comet. A total dive we used to frequent pre-kiddos. We’d meet there after work and enjoy the free wings and dollar drafts. We haven’t been back together since Brighton arrived. The smoke cloud that envelopes you on... Keep Reading...

3rd on the 3rd

I am Amy Smith

Amy Smith and Family including Matthew, Brighton, and Levi

I’m a mother of two minismiths (with the third having beat us all to heaven, lucky duck), wife to Matthew, crazy-loved daughter of the King, and fervent believer in the healing power of bluegrass music.

We are once again beginning the journey to meet our sweet little minismith #3. Let the adoption laboring pangs begin!
