Hey Mama Monday: Mama, The Solution for Family Stress

  Is there stress or strife in your family? When the family isn’t rested, there tends to be more stress and strife among its members. I don’t know about you, but our summer so far has been the busiest ever. In fact, we have been doing nothing but running around (all really good things, mind

Hey Mama Monday: What to Do When Life is Falling Apart, Mama

  Hey Mama, When it’s all falling apart around you, stop and be still. Just quit moving for a moment and re-group; hit the reset button. You’re allowed to do that. No one is standing over you with a whip (except yourself). Don’t do it. What will your advice be to your daughter or daughter-in-law

5+ Reasons to Include Chickens in Your Homeschool

  In February, we took a homeschool field trip to our local farm store and brought home six female chicks and a duck. The duck was purely a spur-of-the-moment purchase, fueled by cuteness alone. Our homeschool dived into proper chicken and duck care; it was science, husbandry, and caregiving all rolled into one. We recently

Hey Mama Monday: What Can a Four Year Old Do, Mama?

  Your house may be a wreck once in a while because of the homeschooling and mothering and training you are busy doing. If you are all about cleaning house and cooking perfection, you just might be missing the most important things. Training gets pushed aside, schooling goes on the back burner, and relationships go

Hey Mama Monday: Mama, Arts and Crafts for the Non-Artsy Homeschool Mom

  Arts & Crafts: My heart sinks when I think about leading or even participating in such activities. I’m so uncreative when it comes to art, and the idea of crafts is on par with going to the dentist. And I don’t like the dentist’s chair. I wish I loved going to the dentist or

What About When You Feel Like A Failure?

  What’s a Mama to do when you feel like a failure? I have a funny feeling that this resonates with way too many of us. I’ve been struggling lately with it, and I have to say, it’s NOT fun! You probably know those feelings all too well also: the depression, the exhaustion, the complete

Fresh and salt water from the same well?

  James 3:7-12 (NASB) asks the questions, “Does a spring send out from the same opening both fresh and bitter water?” “Can a fig tree…bear olives or a vine bear figs?” The answer to these obvious questions is “No!” When God makes an obvious point in His Word, we have to ask ourselves, “What is

How to Be a Donkey

  Palm Sunday. It’s a joyous day. We go to Sunday school and church, listen to a cantata of hosannas, and often leave with sprigs of palm leaves. Sometimes our children come into the “big” church waving paper palm branches. Christians around the world commemorate Jesus’ triumphal entry into Jerusalem. And without a doubt, it’s

  Hey Mama, I heard you are drowning. You thought you were going to wake up and start a fresh new day, lots would get done, and you’d go to bed tonight content that so much was accomplished. It’s not looking that way, though, and the day is already underway and moving too fast. Your

Redeeming the Rough Homeschool Day

  We can all agree that rough homeschool days happen. Sometimes they occur more often than we’d like. When we encounter chaotic days or seasons of life, homeschooling can take a hit and we’re left feeling “behind the curve.” Don’t despair! There is hope, and all is not lost. Even the roughest of homeschool days
