About


Hi, my name is Dakotah. I am a Christian, wife and foster mother. I was a nurse for four years before my husband and I made the decision for me to stay home full time so that we could pursue fostering. My loving husband works in law enforcement and our home and hearts are open to the many children that have, and will continue to come and go as the need arises. In my rare free time I enjoy reading and crafting but my one true love is my Lord and savior Jesus Christ. After going through some life changes and struggling in my relationship with God, I got the idea to share my thoughts and struggles with others so that my experiences can be teaching moments for both myself and others who my be going through the same things. My goal in creating this blog site is to be a resource, example, and listening ear to other Christian woman, mothers, and wives and to share the love of Christ with women who may not yet know His love. I am certainly not the perfect Christian, wife, or mother as I'm sure you will come to see when you explore this site, but I hope that through my imperfections, God's perfectness is made evident. I aim to keep my blog posts bible based and God glorifying. I hope that if I ever stray and post something that could cause someone to stumble or something that is more worldly than God glorifying that someone will reach out to me so that I can right my wrong. If you would like to contact me please feel free to using the contact tab at the top of the webpage. Also, please like and share this site as you see fit on social media. The more this site is shared, the more people can be reached for Gods glory.


"6So then, just as you received Christ Jesus as Lord, continue to live your lives in Him, 7rooted and built up in Him, strengthened in the faith as you were taught, and overflowing with thankfulness."
Colossians 2:6-7

15 Minute Challenge!

As a foster mom, I’m always trying to come up with ways to get to know the kids that come into our home a little better. A few months ago, I decided that I would give each child 15 minutes of uninterrupted one on one time each night to talk, play, read a story or whatever else they wanted to do with just the two of us. 15 minutes may not seem like a lot of time but between cleaning, cooking, school, homework, visits with parents and other things scheduled, 15 minutes of one on one time was all that we could realistically manage in our busy schedule. Over the course of a week worth of 15 minute appointments with each kid, I was spending an hour and 45 minutes of one on one time with each kid. It is a time that both me and the children look forward to and they have let me know that this time is valuable to them and makes them feel that they are important and loved. It gives us a time to reflect on the good and bad of the day and build a bond that may only last a few months, but that t...

Mothering Through Infertility

Infertility is no joke. As a woman who deals with this myself, I know that the struggle is real! If any of you reading this also face this struggle, I'm here for you. I want to start out by saying that you are incredibly strong and I hope that this blog post speaks to you in a loving and sincere, but truthful way. I pray to have the words to speak boldly but tenderly because I understand just how touchy of a subject this can be for a lot of us.  Just know that I am coming from a place of love and truth and that what I have written this week are things that have been put on my heart over the last few years and even more so recently. I am writing this blog post as a reminder to myself but also for those of you that need to hear it as well. The question that has been on my mind most recently is this, when does wanting children go from being a prayer request to an idol that keeps one from fully loving and giving their attention to God? For as long as I can remember I have want...

My Relationship with Jesus

After last weeks post, some of you may be curious about how I plan to grow my relationship with Christ. Well I’m happy to tell you that this is exactly what my blog will be about. My goal is to share my journey to becoming on fire for Christ again and through my journey I hope to inspire others to look at their relationship with Christ As well. Before I get into talking about how I am improving my relationship with Christ, I would like to explain what it means to me to have a relationship with Christ. I know that I have at least a few family members and friends who do not know Christ but are still choosing to read this blog to support me and my venture. For them, I want to explain what it means to be a Christian and why I have chosen to follow Christ so passionately.  I know that before I became a Christian I used to think it was ridiculous  for anyone to believe in God and Jesus and I know I’m not the only one who has ever had ill informed thoughts about Christianity. ...
