Hey there! I’m Kira and I’m so glad you could stop by! I am a 17 year old Christian, homeschooled senior in highschool, and welcome to my blog.

My hope is that you will see Christ in me, and that God be glorified through this little ole blog of mine. May you be encouraged in your visit here, and hopefully you will stop back again soon!

Not too long ago, I was excited to find out that I had won a Tropical Traditions Coconut lotion that was being given away over at A City On A Hill (thank you Rachel!). After hearing how wonderful and healthy the Tropical Traditions products are, I couldn’t wait to use it. When the package came, I tried it out right away; now after [...]

I got a perm!! You guys have to understand, I am NOT very fond of change…so this was pretty daring for me! My main reason for getting a perm, was so it would be much easier to take care of, and so I won’t have to continue flat-ironing every morning (which was killing my hair and very time-consuming!).

It has been over a year now since I started flat ironing my hair. I’ve tried many straighteners, but none of them seemed to really work for me. The Sudio35, Vidal Sassoon Gold, Conair, and others (providing I got them at a very cheap price) either ripped my hair, made it frizz, or just didn’t fulfill [...]

I wish I could say I jog regularly, but unfortunately, I do not. But needless to say, when I do, I always quit early due to those annoying, painful side stitches I get in my side. I don’t know if it’s just me who gets them constantly or what… but I do know, I don’t want [...]
