Tales of #MOMLIFE

The Best Yes by Lysa Terkeurst


      It should tell me something when both my Mom and my sister buy me this book. With my stress levels, anxiety, and add my need to please you've got a serious case of someone who needs to learn how to say no and choose those "Best Yes" moments. 

   I absolutely love, love, love this book and just had to share. As a working mom, and many of you can relate, more often than not I am overwhelmed by all of the obligations and things to do in this busy life. Very often, I lose sight of those opportunities that God has for me because I'm just too busy to slow down and listen. In this book, it was as if Lysa Terkeurst was inside my head...the whole time. 

If you feel overwhelmed by your schedule and life and need some insight on how to gain wisdom to discern your "best yes," then this is certainly the book for you. I'm hoping that I am finally in a season in my life where I can really take her words to heart. Where I can really seek the wisdom I need to say no to things that will take away from my best yes moments, and to say yes to those things that will bless myself and those around me. 

I highly recommend picking this book up as soon as possible guys! You won't regret it.

The Reveal


Let me start by saying how truly amazing it was to share this experience with so many people that we love! When we had Aria, we were in Hawaii, miles and miles away from everyone. So there wasn't really an opportunity to have a baby shower or gender reveal. 


My mother-in-law and my little sister both did an amazing job pulling off this awesome reveal party. Super kudos to my sister who kept the gender a secret for more than a week. Ethan and I were both so anxious and had to exhibit some serious self control not to peek inside the envelope that help the gender of our little Massey. 

                       
I had a feeling from the very beginning that we were having a boy. It was just a gut feeling, plus everything about this pregnancy was different than with Aria. This is the first boy great-grandson on both sides! Everyone is so excited and I can't wait to be a #boymom. 

Aria is definitely going to have to get used to having a little brother, but I can't wait to see how they interact with one another. She's going to be such a great big sister! 


Thanks to everyone who joined us on Facebook live to be a part of this awesome experience! We are beyond blessed and feel all of the love coming to us from all over the U.S.
