Smoke and Mirrors
How many times do you meet someone and wonder how they have it all together? Or how many times have you found yourself envious of what someone else has? We have all done it, so it’s okay.

Really?
Oh joy. It’s February. Valentine’s Day. I am behind on my cool mom stuff I always try to do. I don’t have my décor up. I am sure being sick the past 3 weeks may have something to do with it. But I have the mom guilt. If you are a mom, then you know what I mean. Mom guilt makes no sense. But we have it. Continue reading

Your Not Getting Brownie Points
Let’s make it simple. Stop telling your children to treat others better than you are choosing to treat them. Stop telling them to follow the Golden Rule when you yourself show the opposite. Guidance and redirection doesn’t have to be put downs and intentionally hurtful. Continue reading

I have been wanting to write this for a while now. I was not quite sure if I could explain it the way my brain has thought it out. Probably not, but it is worth a try. Here goes transparency. Continue reading

Children Learning Truth
One of the greatest gifts we can give our children is the ability to be honest. To teach them that lying is a sin. We are just going to call it what it is.

From The Hearts of Babes
This probably won’t be a very long post. The picture says it all. I try to incorporate God into every aspect of my children’s lives. I am not perfect, I don’t claim to be. Pretty sure I covered that already? If not, then there you have it. I may have seen a few squirrels.
