Through my talks with God, I have learned that I can no longer hide my heart from the world

MY CRAZY LIFE BLOG I have been writing on my blog now for many years. I love writing and started when my family got orders to Cuba. Originally I created my blog to spotlight my marriage and our adventures being a military family. This is how MY CRAZY LIFE AS A NAVY WIFE was created. But lately my blog has evolved into so much more. The new name for my blog is simply, MY CRAZY LIFE.  Getting a divorce not only affected me but affected my readers as well. Through writing here on my blog, I have been able to share my heart with so many people. What a joy it has been sharing the love I have for my family with so many of you. I was in so much pain so I needed to walk away for a while to pick myself up. I tried to smile and hide my pain from everyone that saw me. I figured out that I can no longer hide my heart from the world.  Sharing your pain is very therapeutic. It helps you to face the pain head on without hesitation. I had to step out on faith. For those of you readin

You never know who may be suffering. My car ride to Mayo Clinic helped me to CELEBRATE a lovely lady named Beverly

LASHON CAMPBELL CEO MY CRAZY LIFE Beverly, the dear lady that drove me to Mayo Clinic this morning for my doctor's appointment, has been battling cancer for 3 years. We talked about her faith and the similar medical protocol she was on. I took great joy in listening to her. I love meeting new people like her and its by the grace of God, that our paths crossed.  We prayed together, we laughed together and we joined in friendship. I tell you, God's fingerprints are everywhere. Thank you father. What a blessing to meet her today. So glad I was able to walk in this day with her. We all have our own mountains that we have to deal with, but meeting someone like Beverly makes my heart smile knowing that God touches everything. Sometimes we just get too preoccupied with craziness of our own lives to recognize everything that he touches. Today, I have decided to keep my eyes wide open for more precious moments like today. I pray that you will too. God bless you all. 

To all the young girls out there. Be proud of the BEAUTIFUL reflection that stares back at you in the mirror!

MY CRAZY LIFE BLOG Each day I become stronger and stronger than the day before. When I was a young girl I was obsessed with the way I looked. Today I feel so good about myself. I am proud of the reflection that stares back and I pray that you will too. Do you see your beauty? You are beautiful with all of your imperfections. You have to believe that in your heart!  I no longer look in the mirror and pick out things that I dislike about myself. No more of that! It robs you of all of your joy. These things at one point in my life would of really hurt me, but now I smile because I know my identity does not lie in my looks or in people's negative comments about me. My identity lies within the hands of my God who I believe created me to be fearfully and wonderfully made. MY CRAZY LIFE 2017 Thankful for my 3 kids that inspire and encourage me on a daily basis. I am so proud that God chose me to be their mother. FOLLOW ME ON TWITTER https://twitter.c

CAMPBELL FAMILY  These last couple of years have not exactly been easy for me or for my three kids. But, God ALWAYS gave me the strength I needed to rise above all the craziness of our family falling apart. My husband Patrick and I divorced. Yes, we have divorced. There are still many of you that still send me messages in disbelief.  SON PATRICK SON ELIJAH DAUGHTER LYRIC I have NEVER and will never post degrading and unproductive posts about the man I once shared my life with. I find that negativity NEVER makes things better only worse. How can we effectively parent together when we can't stay connected for the sake of our children? CAMPBELL FAMILY   Today I write these words in hopes that other divorced families can focus on the good things their marriage had, instead of the raw pain. We can not and will not dwell on that here at the blog. Instead I have decided to focus on our beautiful ch
