Motherhood
CategoryJoining in the Mess!
That moment when you walk in a room and the kids have made a disaster of everything!!! Crayon marks on the wall, toys covering every square foot of carpet, pillows and clothes are strewn everywhere. Or maybe the kids decided to try out their cooking skills in the kitchen. Flour and water are covering the counters, eggs are cracked on the ground, the towels are thrown across the room and the..
Treasured Moments
Every one of us has moments,
treasured moments to call our own.
They come when we’re not looking,
and linger with us a lifetime.
They bring happiness
that we can look back on,
through our growing years.
No one can steal them from us,
nor taint them in anyway.
They are our treasured moments,
that linger with us,
even when we pray.

Girls NEED Girly Time!
Girls NEED girly time! I work so much and never get to hang out with my sisters. Then I realized how much I need time with my babes! They need time with me too. If you have a daughter or sister it is imperative that you spend some one on one time with her. She needs you and you need her! Read a book, play a game, chit chat for a while. It cultivates lady like qualities in both of you and builds..

The Hand that Rocks the Cradle
The Hand that Rocks the Cradle by William Ross Wallace
Blessings on the hand of women!
Angels guard its strength and grace,
In the palace, cottage, hovel,
Oh, no matter where the place;
Would that never storms assailed it,
Rainbows ever gently curled;
For the hand that rocks the cradle
Is the hand that rules the world.
Infancy’s the tender fountain,
Power may with beauty flow,
Mother’s first to guide the..
It’s Worth the Time & Tears
Sometimes life at home can be hard. Sometimes it can be very hard! And every-time I write a post on this page I think about that. No one can accomplish everything perfectly. During the day, stuck in the moment, it’s hard to remember and even ACT on what you read in your devotionals and encouraging articles. But let me assure you, whatever you do in your home, for your children, for your..

A Child to Love
You can have your wealth and riches
All the things so many seek,
Position, power, and success,
The fame you long to keep.
You can earn as much as you wish,
Reach a status high above,
But none of these can equal
Having one sweet child to love.
‘Tis the greatest gift from heaven,
Little arms that hold you tight,
And a kiss so soft and gentle
When you tuck them in at night.
A million precious..
Cookies at 10 O’clock at Night?!
Baking sweet things for your family can just brighten your whole day! The other night, the boys wanted me to make them cookies. It was about 9:00 at night and I was already very tired from the long day. I said no at first but who can refuse 4 begging boys? 😉 So Hannah and I mustered up some strength and made a special cookie recipe just to surprise them! Cake Batter Cookies with white choc...
Boys and Girls
Boys and girls have such different personalities, do they not? As a mother or sister, we need to embrace each difference and each unique quality in the children of our homes. They were created with different ambitions, gifts, and characteristics. Love them and cultivate their differences! It is worth it! Your children will become who you cultivate them to be. =)
