Change can be hard, but it’s one of the only ways we grow. It’s moving day and I haven’t had to “decide to”
Embrace the change, I’ve just had a ton of peace throughout the whole process, it’s is odd for me since I’m a person who naturally leans toward structure. God has definitely given me grace and peace. This move hasn’t been easy but it’s not been as stressful as I’d thought. Big thanks to metro moving, friends and family who have all pitched in. 🫶

Over Thanksgiving, I was offered an unforgettable opportunity—to help decorate the White House for Christmas, including the Oval Office tree. 🇺🇸✨
Truly one of the greatest honors of my life. I’ve always had a desire to serve my country but never felt a desire to do so in the military so grateful to serve with the talents I have!!

After three full days of decorating, I had the joy of taking my family on a White House tour—seeing those halls and decorations through their eyes made the experience even more meaningful. ❤️

One of the moments I will never forget was standing in the Oval Office after we finished decorating… taking a quiet moment to pray with other volunteers, hand in hand and plead the blood of Jesus over our nation and over President Trump and over his office! A holy, humbling pause in the middle of a historic task.

It also reminded me of one of my favorite principles of etiquette:
“Where you are is never about prestige—it’s about stewardship.” When we are given opportunities what will we do with them?

White House protocol teaches us to:
• Carry ourselves with humility
• Respect the space and those who serve within it
• Offer gratitude generously
• Represent our communities with grace and honor

A beautiful experience, and an even greater reminder:
Courtesy goes before opportunity.
