“Turning 50 this week has me wondering how the heck I got here so fast, when I look back, I see the years like pages of a well-worn book, the restless twenties, the building thirties, the unraveling and becoming of my forties, each chapter marked by grace I didn’t always see at the time”, she wrote alongside an outdoor headshot of herself.

“I’ve laughed, lost, loved, and learned more than I ever imagined”, She added, “Now here, I don’t long to go back, I stand still, aware. Aware of how far I’ve come, how deeply I’ve been shaped, and how faithful God has been through it all”.
