💗 Blog #5 in the “From Mom Guilt to Peaceful Rhythms” Series When I was younger, I used to hate structure. I thought it meant boring routines and strict schedules. But the older I got, the more I noticed something: I actually loved and thrived when I had structure. So when I became a mom, […]

💗 Blog #4 in the “From Mom Guilt to Peaceful Rhythms” Series Our weekends used to be jam-packed—from deep cleaning the house to running errands and keeping the kids entertained. And most weekends, my husband was working, so it all fell on me. By Sunday night, I’d collapse into bed completely drained. It was too […]

Why We Keep Our Weekends Simple

💗 Blog #3 in the “From Mom Guilt to Peaceful Rhythms” Series There was a season where everything felt overwhelming—and I knew I had to make changes. But I didn’t know where to start.

I Love My Kids—But I Don’t Always Love Being a Mom

It’s not just the laundry. Or the meals. Or the carpool lines, the appointments or the to-do list. It’s the thinking about all of it—all the time. The other night, I told Jimmy I was just exhausted. It wasn’t even 8:00 p.m. and I was ready for bed. That familiar feeling had crept in again—the […]

The Mental Load of Motherhood

There was a time I tried to do it all: perfect meals, a perfectly clean house, a perfectly timed schedule—everything perfect. I was exhausted. Constantly overwhelmed. And honestly, tired of the pressure. Something had to change. So I started letting go—of perfection, of expectations, of mom guilt and of the things that didn’t actually serve […]

5 Things I No Longer Do as a Mom

We were already doing that.We just do it differently—and that’s okay. Letting our kids run barefoot in the grass (I gave up on shoes a while ago), build forts, help in the kitchen—even if it means a mess—dig in the dirt and sing like no one’s watching. We are letting them be kids—free to play, […]

Let Kids Be Kids

Let’s be honest—mornings can feel like a full-on sprint the second your feet hit the floor. And if you’re a mom, that sprint includes packing lunches, hunting for lost shoes, calming the chaos, and maybe sipping some lukewarm coffee (or reheating it five times). It doesn’t matter if you’re a working mom, homeschool mom, or […]

Evening Routines That Set Up a Calm Morning

Peaceful mornings begin the night before—with simple choices that make space for calm.”

Mama, how often do you feel guilty for resting — or even thinking about it? I know I used to. I felt like I had to do it all — and only when everything was finished, then I’d maybe allow myself to rest. But even before becoming a mom, I carried guilt around slowing down. […]

Trusting God Enough to Rest

A peaceful moment of rest: A mother sits quietly with coffee and a journal beside her, bathed in soft morning light — a visual reminder that rest is sacred and necessary.

As a mom I often wonder if I’m enough for my family and friends. So often I used to think I was always behind everything. Behind on laundry. Behind on purpose. Behind on who I was supposed to be. But when I stop, take a breathe and pray, I remember this truth I so often […]
