A Day in the Life of… 2018
Every year on January 18th I take one picture every hour from the moment I wake up until I go to bed that night. I end up taking pictures of the ordinary – supper prep, cranky kids, trips the library, a cup of coffee, my computer screen. These ordinary pictures are actually quite extraordinary. They are my everyday. They are my here and my now. They are a day in my life. This year is special because it is my first year with Isaac. Last year's "A Day in the Life" was on my due date! Isaac was born a week later. I am thankful to have Isaac with us this year to participate in the fun. A Day in the Life of Rebekah - January 18, … [Read more...]
Is My Blog Dying???
Year end reviews have always been popular in the blogging world. It has been years since I've shared a collection of my most popular posts from the year, so yesterday I sat down to look at the numbers. I pulled up all of the traffic my blog received in 2017, and what I found really surprised me. My most popular blog posts for the year were all from 2014. This isn't actually the surprising part since my most popular blog post of all time (which continues to be the most popular almost daily) was published in 2014. In fact, 2014 was a pretty epic year for my blog. That was also the year that I wrote the popular posts: I'm Scared to Have 2 … [Read more...]
Stitch Fix: A Frugal Girl’s Honest Review
It feels like all of the cool kids on the internet have been doing Stitch Fix for years, but I have never been brave enough to try it myself. Is Stitch Fix frugal enough for me? I had my doubts. This post is not sponsored by Stitch Fix, but it does contain affiliate links. If you schedule through my link I'll earn a small commission at no cost to you. All opinions are my own. Why did I finally push my doubts aside to try Stitch Fix? They are running a promotion that waives the usual $20 styling fee! Which means I could try Stitch Fix completely free!! (Unless I decided to buy any of the clothes. Duh.) What is Stitch Fix? Stitch Fix … [Read more...]
Crushing the “Perfect Mom” Illusion
You have seen her before. She is the perfect mom. She totally has her act together, and you can't help but wonder what is her magic secret? Today I was that perfect mom. Trust me. I didn't feel like that mom, yet just hours ago another mom asked me for my secret. We were at a moms' group at my church. The prayer request that I shared at my table was for better sleep. Little Isaac is 9 months old. Like most babies, his sleep habits can vary, which means that my sleep varies. Better sleep is always a good prayer request for this mama. As we were finishing up, another mom said to me, "Rebekah, I just have to say that for someone who … [Read more...]
The Power of Contentment
Last year my church started a podcast, PetraCast, to encourage and enrich our church family as well as those outside of our church. I had the privilege of being one of the first guest co-hosts last fall, and my husband was a guest co-host this August. Although I am very open about my Christian faith here on Simply Rebekah, it isn't something that I talk about all that often. I think you will apperciate a change in pace as you listen to me discuss key moments in my spiritual journey and my thoughts on contentment. My husband, Nate, was featured in the episode "Making Disciples is Messy." Nate shares about his experience being the … [Read more...]
