It is also lonely. It is also trying. It is also overwhelming. While coming out of that stage sometimes referredContinue Reading
Home School in the Woods – Great Empires Activity Study {a review}
I’m really excited to share this review and product with you all. I discovered Home School in the Woods at the very start of our homeschooling journey, about 6 years ago – when my oldest child was in kindergarten.

Laundry Management of a Family of 9
Having a large family comes with the assumptions from others that I must be a slave to the laundry. Actually, laundry is NOT my nemesis. It doesn’t overrun my house, and I actually don’t mind doing it. I have even trained my four and six year old daughters how to do it and theyContinue Reading

We’re Broken People
I want to take the time to encourage all of you who have ever felt like you were, dun dun dun…….. backsliding in your life as a Christian. We are human and with that comes a lot of baggage and brokenness, more reason why we need a savior. When I feel like I am startingContinue Reading
Math Rider {a review}
My 10-year-old son struggles with math. I believe that the main reason he struggles is because he has not mastered the math facts. More than not, tears accompany our math lessons together. It pains me to see my son struggling and upset, and as a mom, I want to make it all better. Continue Reading
His plans are perfect!
This seems to be the theme for my life right now. Starting almost exactly a year ago when we found out we were expecting our 7th child. That wasn’t my plan!
