Laundry Room Spring Cleaning
I knew that a small part of our spring break would be spent spring cleaning. It just comes about naturally. We start to pull out the shorts, then there’s a bag of clothes to give away. The scooters come out from the garage and the socks and shoes from the morning are exchanged for sandals. […]

Nerf guns and backyard swinging over here. How about you? We all need breaks. Short breaks during the day. And a […]

The Greater Work
Icebergs, what in the world do they have to do with what’s going on in your life? My husband, Bob, had surgery and developed an infection. We were praying earnestly for his healing. As I was crying out to the Lord one night, He used the illustration of an iceberg to begin revealing what was […]

Helpful Homeschool Habit: How to Fit it All In
Last weekend was a bit crazy, all-over-the-place. A hodgepodge! So, instead of our usual weekly homeschool planning meeting with all our ages, I filled in their planners for our older three children myself. (It was warm enough earlier in the week for a cozy fire in the evening.) Doing the planning and writing for each […]
Trim Healthy Mama: Hodgepodge Style
I hear you big time about ONE MORE THING to add to your life. I ordered the Trim Healthy Mama book and put off reading it when it came in the mail – simply because it was just so big! The book sat beside me on the end table by the couch. But when I […]
