Welcome, friend!

A smiling family of six posing outdoors in front of a tree and a sign that reads 'St. J'. The family has three children and their parents, with the children dressed in dresses and the parents in casual clothing. They are standing on grass with flowers and plants nearby, under a clear sky.

I’m Emily Parkins. I have a passion for encouraging moms - the Christian way. Through scripture, the grace of God, and discipline I have learned how to rebound after tough seasons, and share what I’ve learned along the way. I enjoy sharing recipes, life management tips and encouraging words to help you fill your heart & your belly!

I pray when you are on my page you feel uplifted, encouraged, and seen. I pray you can relate to the stories I tell, and that you find something useful to take into your own lives.

Being a mom and wife are the greatest blessings. I am truly fulfilled by God’s calling to be a mom and wife and I pray that you can feel that blessing as well! 🤍

Trust in the Lord with all of your heart, and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways acknowledge Him and He shall direct thy paths.
