B E S T It's been a while since I've had to slow B E S T It's been a while since I've had to slow down for little legs to keep up, hand in hand, sticking with your buddy. Squeezes, singing, giggling, picking every single flower you see - it's kinda the best 💕 Also, finding friendly horses when you go to the castle ruins - that was a lovely surprise 🐴 20.05.2025 #seetheday2025 #numbereddays #treustories #priandfamcometoireland #timeandproximity #somuchtobethankfulfor
H E R E These precious girls are here, and I'm so H E R E These precious girls are here, and I'm soaking it up! My sister and her family are visiting for the first time, and bringing them to the ocean was at the top of the to-do list. Sunshine, salty waves, and the complete disregard for clothes getting completely soaked made for a good day! Treasuring this time and proximity 💕 19.05.2025 #seetheday2025 #numbereddays #treustories #priandfamcometoireland #timeandproximity #theworldisnotsobig #sunshineinireland #somuchtobethankfulfor
C O M M I S S I O N The second born got commissio C O M M I S S I O N The second born got commissioned to paint these boxes for a local organisation. They'll be used for events that serve communities here in Cork. The brief was given, sketches sketched, and painting began. He asked for my help with a few details, but mostly I got to watch him create and learn, push through when he wasn't sure about how things were going, make fixes, change his mind, complete the vision. Boxes were delivered, and the client was very happy. And Ethan got to paint, so he was happy too ☺️ In creating, we image our Creator God. It's pretty cool to watch your kids step into that, to explore and grow and contribute to the world in ways they really enjoy! 16.05.2025 #seetheday2025 #numbereddays #treustories #ethancole #createdtocreate #somuchtobethankfulfor
F U L L It always takes me a few days to come dow F U L L It always takes me a few days to come down after Youth Days 😅 Games, challenges, and prizes. Worship, teaching, prayer, SO MUCH FOOD and hanging out!! What a privilege to be part of what God is doing today. It's hard to explain how full our hearts are getting to walk alongside teens as they navigate life and faith 💕 Grateful too, for the leaders and churches that we get to serve with - Youth Days only happen in collaboration as the Church partners together for the community and the Kingdom! What a joy!! 12.05.2025 #seetheday2025 #numbereddays #treustories #treuimagemin #timeandproximity #teenagersarethebest #youthdaysireland #somuchtobethankfulfor
M O M I'm a day late, but my Mom is worth celebra M O M I'm a day late, but my Mom is worth celebrating every day! If you know her, you know there's no one like her. She's sweet and spicy, a soft heart and fireworks all at the same time! She loves deep, gives wholeheartedly, and makes the best food! She's the "most magandang Lola in the whole world!" I miss her 💕 Love you so much Mom!! 12.05.2025 #seetheday2025 #numbereddays #treustories #somuchtobethankfulfor
S E E "See how the flowers of the field grow. The S E E "See how the flowers of the field grow. They do not labor or spin. Yet I tell you that not even Solomon in all his splendor was dressed like one of these. If that is how God clothes the grass of the field, which is here today and tomorrow is thrown into the fire, will he not much more clothe you—you of little faith?"

K I D This kid is pretty cool 🤩 He's got styl K I D This kid is pretty cool 🤩 He's got style, humour, an incredible ability to waffle with elevated vocabulary when needed (I can take some credit for this as his language teacher 😅). He gives himself 100% for people and is a person of great conviction. Pretty great having kids you actually really admire! I'm glad I get to be your Mom Si 💕 30.04.2025 #seetheday2025 #numbereddays #treustories #silasdaniel #somuchtobethankfulfor
L A S T Last little bit of Ethan's birthday week, L A S T Last little bit of Ethan's birthday week, and today's game was hilarious 😂 Also, I finally got to give him the blanket I'd been crocheting for him - hopefully big enough to "last him until his children" as Ethan says! Being Mom to this kid keeps me humble and learning daily. I'm so thankful for him 💕 Here's to the next year and all the Lord has in store! 25.04.2025 #seetheday2025 #numbereddays #treustories #birthdaysareabigdeal #birthdayweek #evenbetterwithfriends #ethancole #turningsixteen #timeandproximity #somuchtobethankfulfor

P A I N T This child is not satisfied with simply P A I N T This child is not satisfied with simply sitting in the same room and binging a show together. Time and proximity looks like more - more conversation, more engagement, more substance. And so, we paint. Today it was spice bags, a local legal wall, and a piece he did for me 💡🥰✨ (iykyk) Thankful I'm on the list of people he asks to hang out with 💕 If you're fortunate enough to get time with him, you know he's a treasure! 11.04.2025 #seetheday2025 #numbereddays #treustories #timeandproximity #sayyes #ethancole #graffmom #andsowepaint #somuchtobethankfulfor
N U M B E R E D We got news today that Silas has N U M B E R E D We got news today that Silas has been accepted into the film and production course he interviewed for a few weeks ago! He'll get his official offer in the post soon, we'll be able to register, and Lord willing, he'll begin college in the fall 🥳🥺🎉🥰😭 Today was Sabbath for us - no schedule, take our time, no one works/schools, go outside, eat nice food, look at each other's faces, rest. And I've realised that there are actually a certain number of those we have left with our very customisable, homeschooling schedule. Things are changing, and I'm both really excited for Silas and also not so ready for things to be different around here. I can't slow down time, but I'm endeavoring to soak up the days. Take them in, do the things, say yes! Anyone else in transition mode around here? 10.04.2025 #seetheday2025 #numbereddays #treustories #sabbath #timeandproximity #mylifewithboys #somuchtobethankfulfor
