Celebrating 7 years & Our Golden Blogiversary (Giveaway)

Today, let’s celebrate!

No, I didn’t manage to train my toddler boy to stop dumping sticky substances on the floor within minutes of me sweeping and/or mopping (if anyone has a hack for this, let me know. Better yet, I will hire you to clean up after our son). And no, my kindergarten daughter has not yet realized that mismatched socks or misplacing her favorite shorts does not require some level of tears.

Today, we celebrate seven (SEVEN!) years of ministry here at 7 Days Time.

Between 8th and 9th grade, my family built a house.

My Dad worked for a low-key home/building construction crew, and it was always a dream of my parents to not just own a home, but to have a home THEY designed and built.

So we went to work. Talk about a family bonding experience. Holy moly.

We were going through a lot during that time. Not only was I a teenager (super precious years of my life, BTW– yikes) but my lil bro was a couple of years old, my sister was also a teenager, and my grandma was living out her last year with us as cancer slowly took her life.
