As we dive into one of the busiest times of the year, whether you’re already in the thick of it or just gearing up, now is the perfect moment to focus on maintaining your home. That’s why I’m excited to kick off a new weekly blog series where I’ll share easy, practical tips for keeping […]

Are you the mom who wants to be involved in everything? Do you find yourself saying yes to every request, only to wish later that you had said no? I totally get it. I used to be that mom, eager to be part of everything, but eventually, it wore me down. I was overwhelmed, constantly […]

Last week marked the beginning of our homeschool year and my focus was all about creating a balance that would work for our family—especially as we’re still adjusting to Jimmy’s new job. I wanted this week to be a smooth transition for everyone, easing into our new routine without overwhelming ourselves.    Learning the ropes […]

Balancing the demands of mom life, homeschooling, family and work can feel like an endless juggling act, especially since moms wear so many hats. From managing work deadlines to making sure dinner is on the table, it’s easy to get overwhelmed. But with the right strategies, it’s possible to find balance between your professional responsibilities […]

Life can get crazy and overwhelming, and when it does, it’s important to take a moment to regroup. I know firsthand how essential it is to pause and reset, because when I’m at my best, I show up better for myself and my family.  Here are five of my favorite things that help me get […]

We officially start our first full year of homeschooling tomorrow and I couldn’t be more excited! While we’ve been doing some activities over the summer, like Occupational Therapy (OT), Speech and Vision Therapy for Isabella and JJ, this marks the beginning of a new chapter for us.

I’m often asked, “How do you get your kids to do chores?” It brings back memories of being a kid, where chores were a regular part of life. I learned so many valuable lessons from them—responsibility, accountability and the understanding that nothing is simply handed to you. Despite having chores, I still had plenty of […]

As moms, we all have those good days and those tough days. Some mornings, we wake up already feeling the weight on our shoulders, knowing it might be a long day. Other times, we start the day with a happy heart, believing it’s going to be great—and sometimes it is! But there are also those […]

I always say God has a funny way of working. Over a week ago I posted a blog about changes. How change can be good and hard, because Jimmy and I have gone through a lot of change in the last 11 months.    What I didn’t know was later that day after I posted […]

I bet you have noticed a lot of changes over the last year or so, and I would like to share with you how and why these changes came about. You see Jimmy and I went away together in September, and we were both at a crossroads in our professional lives. Jimmy was being placed […]

Our goal at the beginning of this year was to go on more dates. As parents that is not always easy, but it is necessary. Those dates are important to keep you connected as a married couple. With Jimmy’s schedule we do a date day or a lunch date a few times a month. However […]
