to my parents {day three}

Today’s blog post is one that I’m sure will come with a lot of emotion for me, but fortunately for me, it’s the good kind.  Today I’m looking at ways that I can be a more intentional daughter. My original home is what most would call “broken”.  My parents divorced when I was seven years […]

to my littles {day two}

I feel like a complete failure as a mommy today.  With a sick Little #3, a sick Husband, and two other Littles who need my attention as well, I’m feeling a little stretched today.  The laundry isn’t done, there are dishes in the sink, my bed is still unmade (gasp!), and I’m seriously caffiene-deficient.  When […]

to my husband {day one}

I can recall very vividly sitting outside on the morning of my wedding day, bible in my lap, a cool breeze blowing, and praying to my Lord, asking Him to give me strength, wisdom, and patience (just to name a few) and to help me be the wife that my future husband needed.  In the […]

i’m still here

Life has definitely been crazy for us lately.  But in a good way….. When we originally starting considering homeschooling as an option for our family, I knew that it would take some adjustments and that we would get it figured out.  And that is exactly what we have been up to.  It took us some […]

09/09/2012 Weekly Plan

How did your week go?  I’m fairly certain that mine was missing a few days because it only felt like about 4 of them actually happened this week.  Man oh man, how did the time fly by so fast??  Lol So, this week my biggest goal was to get started with a workout plan.  Guess […]

a bit of encouragement…

I absolutely LOVED this post by Ruth at GracedLaced.com.  It spoke to my heart in a profound way so with Ruth’s permission I’d like to share it with you now.  I hope that all of my mommy friends are able to take something away from this. __________________________________________________________________________________________________ You know how it is when you are trying […]

a greener world…

In a perfect world, everyone would recycle, we wouldn’t depend so heavily on our natural resources like oil, and the sun and wind would power every home in the world.  But…..we don’t live in a perfect world.  And we are consuming our natural resources at in increasingly fast speed. In our home, we like to […]

09/02/2012 Weekly Plan

Okay, I’ll admit that I’m pretty much the typical Type A personality. I LIKE PLANS!! I NEED PLANS!! It sometimes often drives my husband crazy…….but that’s the beauty of marrying your best friend. He’s the one man that has managed to love me even with all of my “quirks”. So, I try to start out each […]

September already…

It’s hard for me to believe that another summer has already come and gone.  Before you know it we’ll be carving turkey, planning Black Friday shopping trips, and seeing Christmas lights when we’re out and about.  Okay, maybe I’m getting a little ahead of myself ~ but I blame Hobby Lobby.  One quick trip into […]
