Secret Reveal!

Guys, I am crazy about essential oils! I have been a closet oil user for quite some time because I don't like the oil-haters out there. Does anyone else hate to be hated?! Alas,the time has come, and I just can't keep quiet any longer. Hi, my name is Abigail Joy Dubbe, and I am an essential oil LOVER! There. I said it. Whew, that feels good! ;) I signed up with doTERRA (an essential oil company) several months ago and have very much enjoyed their products. Along the way I heard about Young Living (another essential oil company), and had wanted to try them as well. But there was no way I was going to spend the money again. Trying YL oils became a little desire of my heart I kept tucked away. Only the Lord knew.

Fast Forward. Several weeks ago, I was having a lovely conversation with a friend. We hadn't talked in quite awhile, so it was really fun to catch up. Towards the end of the conversation, much to my shock, she said, "My husband and I know you guys have been going through a tough time, so we wanted to do something to help out. We want to buy you a Young Living Starter Kit." I believe I put my hand over my mouth in disbelief. My chest got tight with emotion and I thought for sure I was going to start wailing. Tears threatened to pour as I thanked her for such a generous and incredible gift. ONLY GOD WOULD KNOW of my little desire to join Young Living- which included a diffuser! Something else I had been secretly wanting.

Ohhhhh the goodness of The Father! How He loves to lavish us with Sweet Things! And He chooses to use His children- like my dear friend, to bless. Today, I am thankful for the gift of essential oils, and thankful for an over-the-top generous friend. #thankfultoday

What are YOU thankful for TODAY?

It seems as if the unexpected, most shocking events that happen in life come during the mundane moments. 6 weeks ago our little family was sitting around the dinner table. It was no different than any other typical dinner with 2 preschoolers. Chips, salsa, taco sauce, and beef were flying around the table, drinks were spilling, and siblings were screaming at each other. Nothing unusual. Chuck and I began catching up on our days. He’s usually very easy to read, but this particular night, I had not sensed anything out of the ordinary. Halfway through dinner, he looked me straight in the face and said, “I lost my job.” The chaos around me faded into the background, a buzz began sounding in my ears, and my body began tingling from head to toe. I stared into Chuck’s face as the room around him became blurry. At first the shock was my comfort. Numbness took over my ability to feel. The shock wore off at 2:37 that morning. I was jolted out of a sound sleep, the pain so immens...

One Name

Jase was seven months old. The number was so high on the thermometer the nurse advised me to swiftly get him out of his car seat and strip his clothes off. We then moved to a back room where I waited for the doctor. The room was warm. Stuffy. The air felt thick with heat. I wished there was a window to be opened. The stale room needed fresh air. Pricks of sweat started to itch my back. (Minutes before his first seizure.) When the doctor finally appeared, I gave the rundown of Jase’s symptoms. She carefully examined him as he laid atop the white, crackly paper on the table. Everything seemed to check out. As she walked back to her desk, something frightened me about the way Jase looked. He was still lying on his back. His eyes were open, but the life inside him seemed gone . His eyes didn’t move, they just stared off into the distance. His chest moved up and down with short breaths. His arms and legs were limp.   Everything seemed to slow down to an other worldly pac...

My Baby Girl

A couple weeks ago my Aunt Keren and Grandma came out East, stayed with us, and then we met up with my Mom's side of the family for my cousin's wedding in NJ.  After the fun wedding festivities and a few days at the beach, they came back to my parent's.  One of the nights we had a fire bowl, and sat outside talking for awhile.  Grandma was really missing her pup, so she scooped Jovie up.  That night she wanted nothing to do with sitting on my lap, but she cozied right up with Gram.  It was super precious.  I love this picture of the two of them together. Right now Jovie is actually sick and it breaks my heart.  I get so worried about her, which I know seems goofy because "she's just a dog".  But she's my baby girl and I hate seeing her lethargic, and puking.  The other bummer is that the vet is expensive, so we're trying to take the cheapest route, and are praying she gets better within the next 48 hours.  Poor little thing.  Th...
