Wear Your Motherhood Capes Proudly

  By definition, a superhero is an exceptionally skillful or successful person.  We, as a society, take it to mean anyone who steps up and does what is needed in times of adversity or emergency.  Superheroes can be found in all walks of life.  They don’t have to be just limited to medical professionals, the

Fruits of the Spirit for the Homeschool Mom – Peace

  Peace. Such an elusive word. Where can peace be found, what does peace look like, who brings peace to our shattered world, our shattered hearts? The answer to all of these questions is Jesus. Peace is the third fruit of the Spirit listed in Galatians 5:22-23. In our homeschooling, in our own lives, are

Hey Mama Monday: Mama, How Are You Feeling?

Lately, I am feeling a little bit anxious. Besides this strange “pandemic” we are in, the end of the school year is fast approaching. I feel the need to get it all done, but I don’t feel the desire. I never feel like I have done the best job, and I always feel like I

Comparison Games

  Are you a victim of the social media entrapment? This entrapment boasts of perfection. It snares the innocent-minded mother and binds her with feelings of inferiority. Our friends’ perfect lives are plastered all over social media. Envy creeps in, and before long disdain fills our lives. A friend posts a calming picture of their

Hey Mama Monday: The Best is Coming, Mama!

Hey Mama, Did you know that some of the sweetest days you will ever have haven’t even happened yet? The time in your life you laughed so hard you could barely breathe—that day isn’t here just yet. And the way you look at your child the day they get married . . . you never

You’re Doing Great

I really had a whole other post planned out. I was going to wax eternal about the unique homeschool culture and how to maintain a healthy attitude when confronted by your own insecurities. It was going to be AWESOME. But…the more I wrote, the harder I was able to take myself seriously. Sometimes, it’s not

Hey Mama Monday: You Are a Princess, Mama

Hey Mama, “The Great Race” has its own special meaning to us Mamas who look at the clock in wonderment; how on earth is it already time for dinner? Or bedtime? Where did the time go? Who took away the daylight? We are squishing all these hours in the best we can, yet the day

Don’t Fall Into the Comparison Trap

I belong to an online support group for mothers of pediatric stroke survivors. Periodically, a post will appear from a mom who took her child to a playground and was upset because children of a similar age or younger could do things her child can’t do yet. When these posts appear, I respond by warning
