Making a Plan

Last Fall...I missed all the pins on Pint-erst I had planned. There were boxes of cupcakes not make in my cupboard, and we barely made it to the pumpkin patch. I wish there was a monumental reason to tell you why. But when it really comes down to it. Life got busy. Too busy.

This year I am being very intentional about ideas I have. And trying to fit at least one in a week to make the season last longer. Lets be real. I LOVE FALL! So each Sunday, I am trying to do something crafty fun or baking with my kids.

This week I thought it would be fun to decorate some tiny pumpkins and use some of the canvases from our summer art time together to get them into decorating with me. They seem to enjoy it more when I let them help.

I often struggle with letting them decorate, only for the reason its not perfect. But our imperfections is our fingerprint on things. So I am embracing the fingerprints.




I am choosing to be intentional with my kids. 
I can't wait to soak up these moments together.
You can choose to barely get through the season, 
or add some glitter and paint and have fun along the way.

Intentional living is what I want to do. I try. We try. Give grace. Give fingerprints center stage. Identity in Him. Greatness! You are doing great!
