I’m not sure what happened to October, but I feel like I woke up one morning and we were hurtling at the speed of light into the season of turkeys and decorated trees! My husband is already listening to Christmas music but I’m not even thinking past this weekend, much less Thanksgiving or the Christmas […] Read more…

My 9 year old daughter asked me the other day if she could write down a list of ideas for fun things to do this summer. So I made a quick summer bucket list printable for her–and thought I would also share it with you! Summer Fun Bucket List Printable Download this simple Summer Fun Bucket List […] Read more…
Being a mom is hard. It’s a wonderful calling, but it’s not an easy one! I find that I need more encouragement as a mom than I did as a teen or a young adult. And when we’re constantly comparing ourselves to others or wishing we were like “her”, we can begin to feel discouraged, […] Read more…

I thought it would be fun to create a pretty Scripture print that could be used for Easter and really all of the spring season! It’s available to you for free! Just click the image below […] Read more…
A couple of years ago, I started hearing the suggestions to pick “one word” for the coming year. The idea of New Year’s Resolutions was out of style and embracing one word that would represent our future choices and actions became all the rage. As with most trendy ideas, I tend to roll my eyes […] Read more…
A few weeks ago, I created Bible verse lunchbox notes for elementary and older children. I wanted to know if any of you could use lunchbox notes for your early readers too! The response was an overwhelming “yes!” so I made six Scripture verse lunchbox notes with simple verses that are designed for children who […] Read more…
Sending lunches to school with kids is a new concept for me this year. It’s not because my kids have never gone to school before. In fact, we have a 6th grader (hello, middle school!), a 3rd grader and a sweet Kindergarten boy (the three year old still hangs out with me all day!) at […] Read more…
Summertime is here, hooray!! We’re so thankful for three months of lazy afternoons at the pool, late night bonfires, extra time with friends and family and a few little vacations along the way. After the school year finished up, I found myself looking for a Bible reading plan for my children that we could go through […] Read more…
During the summer, our daily schedule tends to go out the window. I think it’s because we need a break from the structure of scheduled activities, schoolwork and other events. Or maybe it’s because where we live, the weather is finally nice and all my kids want to do is play outside and hang out […] Read more…
We have a bedtime routine in our home that involves reading (several) books, singing some songs and praying before it’s time to lay down and (hopefully!) go to sleep. Ever since I mapped out a Bible reading plan for 90 Days in the Psalms (you can sign up for that reading plan right here!) for moms, […] Read more…
How do you celebrate St. Patrick’s Day? Do you eat mint ice cream while wearing green clothing like our family does? :) We’re not Irish, but we love traditions and it’s fun to participate in all the little holidays too! What I love about March 17 is the opportunity for Christian parents to talk to […] Read more…
Winter is the best time for snuggling up and reading with your kids. My four children can plow through several books a day (and the five year old, like every preschooler, usually loves to have the same book read to her over and over again!). Since our kids love books so much, and since February […] Read more…
