Happy Sunday, Reader, I don’t know about y’all… but I sure do love the Bridge Ladies 😁❤️ Nelda, Glory, Lora, and Ethel Sue—each one brings something different to the table: wisdom, dreams, plans… or just enough sparkle to keep life interesting. And the more I think about them, the more I realize something: We all carry a little bit of each of them. But usually… one rises to the surface. The way you see things. The way you love people. The way you show up when it matters most. So I got to wondering… 👉 Which Bridge Lady are you most like? I put together a quick little quiz for you—and I hope it encourages you on the journey. ❤️🤗 When done put your answer in the poll and I will email you the results. 😁👍 1. When something feels “off” in your community, what’s your first instinct? A. Say something—maybe with humor, but say it B. Check in on people and make sure everyone feels okay C. Step back and figure out what’s actually going on D. Pray, reflect, and listen before speaking --- 2. Your friends would describe you as: A. Bold, joyful, and full of life B. Warm, thoughtful, and deeply caring C. Calm, smart, and always thinking ahead D. Grounded, wise, and quick to smile --- 3. When plans need to be made, you usually: A. Get the conversation started B. Bring ideas that help people feel included C. Organize everything into a clear plan D. Help guide decisions with clarity and grace --- 4. What fills your cup the most? A. Creating, exploring, connecting with new people B. Baking, hosting, making others feel loved C. Quiet thinking time, reading, long walks D. Peaceful moments, reflection, meaningful conversation --- 5. In a group setting, you’re most likely to: A. Break the tension and get people talking B. Encourage others and keep things kind C. Make sure things actually get done D. Chat about a recent event you were both part of --- 6. What do you believe matters most? A. Honesty—even if it’s uncomfortable B. Love in action C. Doing things the right way D. Living with purpose and faith --- Count up your answers (A, B, C, or D)… then choose the one you got most below and I’ll send you a note sharing which Bridge Lady you’re most like… and how people feel because of you. 🫶 Once you vote it will take you to the results page.
I have a feeling… you’ll recognize her right away. Now, this is still in it's "rough draft phase" so please let me know what you think. Do you agree with the results? Do you agree with the words used to describe that particular bridge lady? I'd LOVE the feedback. 🫶 Reader, the world is a better place because you are in it! ❤️ Wishing you a great week! grace + hugs, Melissa Alyse ❤️ |

Hey there, sweet friend, My normal Willow Creek update accidentally went out early this morning… but honestly, I’m kind of glad it did. Because I wanted to send something a little different today. A hug from one mom to another. 🫶 Motherhood was hard for me sometimes. Honestly… a lot of the time. Especially as an introvert who has always loved a quiet, calm house. 🙃 I loved my children deeply. But the constant noise, needs, interruptions, emotions, and everyday chaos (adding homeschooling on...
Hey there, sweet friend, You won’t believe what Ethel Sue volunteered to help with at the rodeo on Saturday… The craft booth. Which means you can guarantee there was plenty of glitter, stickers, glue sticks, and at least one child who left looking like a walking scrapbook page. 😄 But that isn’t even the surprising part. You know who offered to help her? Jo. Yes, sweet, quiet Jo from across the street. Now, to be fair, Ethel Sue may have caught her outside watering her bushes… and may have...
For those that want to skip straight to getting the book - 👉 You can grab Ruckus at the Rodeo here 😁👍 Hey there, sweet friend, Rodeo week in Willow Creek is usually one of my favorite times of the year… Dust in the air, boots by the door, and more sweet tea than anyone should reasonably drink. The Bridge Ladies signed up to help with check-in at this year's Sterling Ridge Ranch Rodeo. And for a while… it was all going great. Until it wasn't. The radio crackled. A voice came through, rushed...
