I’ve been making healthier choices in our food and lifestyle. Are you making healthy choices in your home? I’ve been implementing healthier ways to clean our clothes. Sometimes the never-ending story of laundry is a huge stressor for me. I feel like I’m constantly behind, so this is a task I’ve focused extra effort on this year.

Timeless Shoes for Confident Women|Sarah Flint

I’m 51 and the older I get, the more I invest in staple clothing pieces and shoes versus buying many pieces that will wear out or go out of style quickly. I choose timeless shoes for confident women, something I consider myself to be, and I choose outfits that I can wear year after year because they remain classic pieces and are of a quality so high that they don’t easily wear down.

Sarah Flint has such beautiful shoes for work, date night, and any special occasion you can think of. I own and often wear the Perfect Block Sandal and they are as comfortable as they are stylish. The quality is impeccable and the arch support is incredible. It has the perfect amount of padding in the heel and the attention to detail is impressive. I certainly love these shoes!

Sarah Flint is a woman-owned company created for women so we can own functional, beautiful, stylish shoes that will stand the test of time and fashion trends. I adore these flats pictured above. The Kim flat in Balmoral Blue Fabric comes in other colors and is a lovely addition to your wardrobe. They are versatile enough to wear with jeans or to the office or somewhere in between.

These Limited Edition Parker 50 are wedding beautiful. They again have the substantial arch support like my perfect block sandals do and of course come in the color pictured: Wedding White. These are heels perfect for a bride or for me as I am Mother of the Bride in my daughter’s wedding this fall!

Move Devotional Great for Father’s Day Gift | Review

I was given one copy of this book to review. I was not otherwise compensated. All reviews are honest.

When I had the opportunity to provide a review of Move Devotional, I knew my son would love to read this. I was right. He’s been reading and enjoying it, and says it’s easy to read and understand. As well, he says the devotions aren’t too long, a perfect length for daily reading.

About the book: Propel your life forward with this devotional for men that will encourage you as you delve into Scripture. It will help strengthen your prayer life and offers practical challenges designed to provide for you a more fulfilling life.

Move Devotional is authored by pastor, husband, and dad Brian Tome, and it is perfect for any man who desires to live a life of greater spiritual strength and power. This inspiring, accessible book includes:

•            Practical strategies for the everyday man to make positive changes in his life

•            Guidance on how to deal with real-life struggles

•            Motivation to get moving

•            Scripture, prayer prompts, and authentic stories from the author

With 70 entries about work, rest, family, purpose, prayer, spiritual growth, and more, Move Devotional is fitting for men in any season of life. Move Devotional is ideal for high school and college graduations, Father’s Day, birthdays, and New Year’s, and is an excellent gift for men who:

•            want a deeper spiritual life but don’t know where to start.

•            are facing a time of transition or looking for change in their lives.

•            are in a men’s small group and want to take practical steps together.

•            want straight talk about real life, not sugar-coated religious cliches.

Happy Father’s Day to you and the fatherly person in your life.

I miss my Dad every year. I’m thankful for my amazing husband who is an awesome dad to our kids.
