I'm Falling!!!




Each thing in your life that feels discouraging, each person that has broken your spirit, each moment when you've felt more alone than you think you can stand....KNOW that in all those moments...when you stood through them....you grew stronger!

Think of each difficult situation... like doing one more rep of a workout...that you know hurts, but you know when you are done...you are going to have the most chiseled muscle in the world.....
not just sculpted legs..or chiseled arms....but the most important muscle of them all....your constantly beating heart!

In the bible it says, "Guard your heart, for it is the well-spring of life"....and that is so true....
If we strengthen our hearts...no one or nothing can take us down....

We are all "get-back-uppers"....none of this "we're getting knocked down"....no way......if we do fall......we're not focusing on the falling...we're focusing on the "get-back-upping"! Because it's not the falling we call failure, it's the STAYING DOWN!

And the best part is...when you have someone that helps pull you up...and that's what i have found many do for me....I love you all so much...and I cherish all your precious words and have stored them in my heart!
huge love, Sierra

Oh no, BACKWARDS!!!!








sometimes, we have to go backwards in life...and it may seem like, "oh no! now I'm really never going to get where I want to be!"....
but it's like a catapult.....you need to pull the catapult backwards...so it has the power to launch it's object farther ahead!

I know this feeling, I felt like all my dreams were never going to happen. I was going way, way, way, into the WRONG DIRECTION!!! And then I had more of my babies...and thought: "I just really screwed up my life!"......but God knew the whole time, what he was doing... Those babies have actually made me grow better as a person and stronger as a loving wife and mother. My whole inner being just changed, all for the better :)


If you feel like you are going backwards.....in your life, relationship, career, dreams, school...anything....just get ready, because, your probably about to be launched farther into your future...think CATAPULT!!!!

you gotta go backwards...before you catapult into your future!!!!
huge love and catapulting, Sierra

this is how life is sometimes
