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

Hey Mama Monday: Mama, Build Someone Up Today

Hey Mama, Today, focus on building up. I saw a cool meme on Facebook which said something to the effect of, “You can tell who the strong women are . . . they’re the ones building others up instead of tearing them down.” It’s easy to do this with ourselves (Eeyore Syndrome), but we also

Teach Them Love for Books

When I first began homeschooling many years ago, I was both excited and terrified. I was constantly amazed by my children’s curiosity and desire to learn, but I was completely intimidated by the thought of teaching them to read. When I was a young child, I had no idea of the adventures I could take

Sweet as Maple Season

Winter time in southwest Pennsylvania usually means snow, cold, sled riding, hot cocoa, and … maple season, one of the sweetest seasons around! If you are lucky enough to live in an area which produces maple syrup, it’s a pretty sweet life. 😉 The area in which my family lives in southwest Pennsylvania, we are

Homeschool Love

When I tell people that I homeschool my children, I am met with one of two responses. “Wow, that is great.” “There is no way that I could ever do that with my children.” Occasionally, someone will surprise me, but those are the general responses I hear. I will admit that sometimes I respond with

The Productivity of Rest

I stir from my slumber embracing the feathered pillow cradling my face, momentarily resisting my internal alarm clock before rising at 4:30 a.m. to share with you the productivity of rest. In a culture driven by consumerism and success, we’ve forgotten how to Sunday. Most people I know aren’t trying to climb corporate ladders or
