Happy Father’s Day to 3 of the most amazing men

Happy Father’s Day to 3 of the most amazing men I know!
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
David - you have my whole heart. The way you love people and love our son is truly inspiring and admirable. Ryser is literally your best friend and you would choose to hang with him over anyone else any day. He is luckiest kid in the world to have you as his father, and I’m the luckiest girl in the world to have you as the father to my kids. How did I get so lucky and blessed? 🙌🏼😭🙌🏼😭😍
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Dad- where do I even start. My look alike and personality twin. There wasn’t a day when I grew that you weren’t there for me. Every gymnastics and pole vaulting meet you were there cheering me on as my number 1 fan. You see my potential and call it out of me every single day. Even in the darkest and hardest of seasons, you never left me. I’ll never be able to put into words how much it means to me that you put family first no matter what you go through. You are loyal to the ends of the earth and I love you more than words will ever say!
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
PC- To really know you is to really love and respect you! You are the most humble and anointed leader there is. You treat me as one of your own biological daughters and to say I’m extremely blessed to call you my father is an understatement. I love you so so much! HAPPY BIRTHDAY 🎉 ❤️ Celebrating you extra today!! #happyfathersday ...

You don’t get to choose what skin color you are

You don’t get to choose what skin color you are born with... but you know what you can choose? You can choose to use your voice. To speak up, to love, to support, & to stand for justice. No matter our ethnicity, we are are loved and called to do great things!
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
My brothers are the most loving, tender, kind, humans you will ever meet. They have a heart of pure gold, but because of their skin color, people automatically assume different things about them, opposite to who they really are.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
I remember when my mom told some of our family friends that we were adopting Mark & Jackson from Liberia. Instead of celebrating & being so excited for us, they judged us & said their kids were no longer allowed to hang out with us. Was it because we were adopting? Nope. It was because were adopting 2 BLACK boys. Since the day we adopted my brothers, I have had to watch them grow up & navigate racism in America. It truly makes me sick to my stomach & stirs up an anger I can’t explain.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Will Smith was so right when he said “Racism isn’t getting worse. It’s getting filmed.” Why did it take another death for me to finally speak up about this? BECAUSE NO ONE WAS TALKING ABOUT IT so I felt weird like “they don’t care, they don’t understand” BUT NO, ENOUGH IS ENOUGH. My mouth is open & my voice is screaming from the rooftops. And I won’t stop till this is over. Love your neighbor like yourselves NO MATER what skin color they have. Black Lives Matter
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
I refuse to let my nieces grow up in a world where they also are bullied, looked at differently and hated on because of their skin color. PLEASE join me & using your voice to stand up & say this isn’t right. It’s time we change.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
If you’re currently protesting or thinking about protesting, ask yourself this. What is my goal? Is my goal to cause more harm & more chaos? Or is it to stand up against racism & stand up for a change? Fighting from a spiteful, attacking heart isn’t going to get us anywhere. I believe in standing up for change but there’s a way you can do it in love that will be way more effective.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Let’s stop attacking each other & attacking police and instead link up arms together! 🖤🤍 ...

To the girl that dreamed of having a little girl b

To the girl that dreamed of having a little girl but found out she’s having a little boy, this one’s for you.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Ever since I was little, I dreamed of being a mom to a little girl. I grew up with sisters, I did gymnastics and cheerleading, I braided the little girls hair I babysat, and I couldn’t wait to have all of these same experiences with my daughter.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
So when I found out I was pregnant with a boy, my world was truly rocked.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
I had never pictured myself being a boy mom. I called my mom everyday for a few months just to process, but honestly, I mostly cried. I was so excited to be pregnant, but I couldn’t wrap my head around all the dreams and expectations I didn’t even realize I had. Add a few pregnancy hormones into this hot mess, and if you know, you just know.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
I didn’t want people to judge me for what I was wrestling through, but I didn’t want to suppress my feelings either.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
I’m not the type of person that usually regrets things. But I do regret underestimating how much I would love my son and love being a boy mom.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
God had a great plan - it was just different than mine. A future far better than I could ever imagined!
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
In no way at all, do I want to paint my struggle to process all this as a sign I’m not grateful. I have tears of gratitude pouring down my cheeks right now. I’ve learned we can be grateful and scared at the same time.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
I tell you all of this because I wanted to speak to the girl that was me when I couldn’t find anyone else talking about this.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
I not only LOVE my son but I love being a boy mom. Ryser has brought me more joy than I have ever experienced in my life. I thank God every single day for this this precious boy and for the perfect plan He had all along, even when I couldn’t see it.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Whatever you’re walking through today, regardless of what you think and feel right now, God is close to you. He knows the desires of your heart and He’s not going to leave you alone in the midst of your processing and fears. God met me right in the midst of my uncertainties and He will meet you there too
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Now, you go rock that boy mom life! It really is as amazing as they all say! 🖤⚡️ ...

Protecting, taking care of and looking after this

Protecting, taking care of and looking after this little guy is one of my highest priorities! Unfortunately... pollen, teething and other yuckies don’t always have his best interest 😔🥺 I try and be very proactive and intentional about staying on top of his vitamins, supplements and oils. But sometimes the yuckies still attack and leave Ryser with an annoying couch, sniffles and all the things.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
I know first hand how frustrating and never ending it can feel. But I’m here to bring a little glimmer of light, and share with you the only cough syrup I have found that I trust and let near my son! @wellements is certified-organic, preservative-free, bottled in glass and an added bonus: Ryser loves the taste!
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
I’m so excited to announce I am teaming up with Wellements to give a set of their products to three of my followers! (Products include not only the cough syrup but a whole line of their best selling products, like the gripe water that was our saving grace for the first 4 months of Ryser’s life) 🥳🙌🏼

Peace in the midst of Chaos
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
So much change
So much unknown
So much fear
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
So many opinions
So many voices
So many lives at stake
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
My guess is most of you are feeling the weight and heaviness of life right now. Wether it be the loss of a loved one or loss of a job. Sickness but with no promised cure. Changed or canceled plans for an upcoming trip or wedding. Mental sanity with your kids being home from school and having to learn how to homeschool and entertain them every second of the day. Businesses delayed in opening or business shutting down and not knowing if you will be able to open back up. Just to name a few...
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
It’s overwhelming, scary, confusing, sad, frustrating, painful, unfair, and just down right hard. We’re doing everything we can, following all the rules given, reading every article or “how to” put out there, calling every connection we know, and trying to hold on to and control as much as we can just to feel a sense normalcy, hope, and peace. But yet every morning we wake up and the weight is still there...
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
I don’t have all the answers, and I’m right there with you struggling as well... but there are few things I know to be true:
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
✨Gods got this
✨We are not alone! God is not absent in the midst of what we’re facing. He won’t leave us, nor abandon us and He will never forget about us!
✨Letting go of trying to control certain circumstances does not mean we’re giving up... it means we’re finally allowing the Lord to take it from here and trusting His plan. And as a result we will experience that perfect peace He promises us!
✨We have the power to boss our feelings around and take every negative thought captive.
✨We are more than conquerors and equipped to handle this!
✨God is the ultimate healer over all sickness
✨We are going to get through this! We won’t feel this way for forever, this is just a season, and will see the light at the end of all this.
✨Our circumstances are not louder than God’s word! ...

Every time we come to our mountain house I’m blown away just how absolutely gorgeous it is here @beechmountainnc! When we were going down the mountain today, it made me think about this quote from the “I Still Believe” movie I watched the other night: “The definition of wonder: to behold something greater than yourself. God is so infinitely vast and this is His painting. We paint with brushes, He paints with a billion stars and a trillion galaxies. And He know my name. The God of a trillion stars knows my name. And he has a destiny just for me. And I’m gonna figure it out, some day!” So powerful and so true! 😭🙌🏼
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Beech Mountain has become like our second home! The small little town, the sweetest people, the incredible slopes, and the breathtaking views! I’m not ready for the ski season to be over and I’m trying to hold on to every last minute! 🤍🏔

Surprise!!! We’re opening up a fitness studio!! 🎉🤗🤩
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
I’m so excited to finally announce because now I get to bring you along on the journey of behind the scenes (aka why I’ve been so MIA recently) and show you everything we’ve been working on!
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
God is so good!!! I could seriously cry! This is so much more than just opening up a studio, it’s the start of a whole new chapter for David and I! David has always worked in ministry at a church and had planned to continue to do so when we moved to charlotte. But God made it very obvious He was calling David somewhere else, we just didn’t know where. This past year has been a year of stripping off every label, every expectation, and every pressure off of David, and allowed him to really hear for himself where the Lord was calling him.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Even though it was long and felt like we were never gonna get clarity on David’s next step, we now look back and see so clearly what the Lord was doing. David and I have never been more confident and united on our callings individually and together than we are now!
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
I’m so beyond proud of you @dwillhodges for not giving up and giving in when it was so hard and life felt so unclear. You’re going to be the worlds best trainer to everyone who walks through the doors of @arrichion_matthews! The best really is yet to come! Let’s do this thing babe!!! 😭🙌🏼🤩😍🎉 #arrichionmatthews #arrichionfamily #arrichionstrong ...

There are lots of new faces around here so I want to officially say “Welcome!” 🥰🤗 And thank you for following along! I am beyond grateful to have you join me and my family! My husband, @dwillhodges, and I love our life here in Charlotte and are blessed to be able to share it with you. I wish I could sit with each of you, new and old followers, & share my signature “AshleyTerk” Chick-fil-A drink with you and get to know you better. But since I can’t do that, here are some things you might or might not know about me and my family:
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
✨ I did competitive gymnastics my whole life and thought I was on my way to the Olympics until one day I got severely injured and was never able to return
✨ My dad owns a Chick-fil-A and has my whole life. So, we eat A LOT of Chick-fil-A around here but hey it’s free and delicious, do you blame us?! 🤪😍
✨ I went to university of Alabama. I was an Alpha Gam and studied nursing until I dropped out of college to marry my best friend and do ministry together!
✨We lived in Alabama for the first 2 years of our marriage until we moved to LA California to join the staff at Hillsong LA! Shortly after we found out we were pregnant and gave birth to our amazing son, Ryser, in September 2018!
✨ After a year of living in LA and raising a baby with no family, we decided to move to Charlotte NC to be near my family! A DREAM COME TRUE and a prayer I prayed for almost 5 years 😭🙌🏼
✨We have now lived in Charlotte for a year and I hope we stay here forever!
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
✨ Ages:
Ashley - 24
David - 26
Ryser - 17 Months
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
✨@dwillhodges and I have been married 4 years in April!
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
✨ Enneagram:
Ashley - 8w7
David - 7w8
Ryser - (we’re not sure but whatever number is perfection 😍)
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
✨ David and I both come from ministry families. His dad is @pastorchrishodges and my mom is @lysaterkeurst
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
✨Jobs:
Ashley - Influencer
David - Trainer
And in March we’re opening up a business together that we can’t wait to announce 🎉😍🙌🏼
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
WOW... that was a lot, if you made it this far congratulations and thank you again for following along! Okay now I want to know a fun fact about you?!!! Comment down below!! 🥰❤️ ...
