Everyday Fun: How to Find Joy in the Mundane

  For too long, I’ve griped about my daily work. I have to do this; I have to do that. Then slowly, something I didn’t expect started happening. The kids were sounding like me when I had them do their work. Oh, I have to do this again. This work is so boring. I realized

Hey Mama Monday: No One Will Remember The Occasional Mess

  Hey, Mama, I heard it through the grapevine that….well…that your house is a mess. A hurricane is more like it. Sure, your kids are clean and they eat really well (I’ve heard about your cooking), and right, so you spend a lot of time with them reading aloud and talking eye to eye, heart

Hey Mama Monday: The Memories You Create When You Cook

  Hey Mama, Do you have a child who loves your cooking? Is there a particular dish he or she loves? You probably have no idea right now the memories you’re creating. Strong, strong ones. Fast forward 40 years from now. Maybe you’re gone. Or perhaps you live with your daughter and her family. The

Whispers Along the Water’s Edge

  “The Mole had been working very hard all the morning, spring-cleaning his little home.” With these word, we enter a very special world called the Riverbank, created by Kenneth Grahame.

  Hey Mama, Difficult trials. You’re no stranger to them. I know it is TIRING, Mama, and it can get monotonous and very dark at times. Will this ever end? Where is justice, where is light? I too have gone through some dark times. And when my heart and spirit are low, I can only

God’s Confirmation Gives Confidence

  As a homeschool mother I occasionally wonder if my children are truly receiving the best education. Not because I find myself inadequate or because I lack teaching confidence. I honestly think that it’s just normal to wonder sometimes. That’s why I’m so grateful that God hears my silent wonders and always provides confirmation. During
