finding beauty, confidence, and rest in motherhood
Mother’s Day is such a special holiday. One of my favorites. A beautiful time to reflect and honor and snuggle my most precious blessings. Oh, and presents :) Those are pretty nice too! I usually coordinate a group gift between my sisters and I for our mom, I brainstorm with my husband for his […]
The golden moments of staying at home … These two battle all day long so it was pretty precious to catch them lovin’ on each other. Nothing like Mama saying, “You better be nice or this video game goes off” to bring out the love! Speaking of love … here’s a few things I’m crushin’ […]
Today’s post includes affiliate links. Some items I’ve shared were received as review samples, but, of course, I wouldn’t share if we didn’t truly think these gift ideas were wonderful! Who knew we’d be having a quarantine Easter this year?!? I’m definitely disappointed that we won’t be celebrating with our church family this year and […]
It has been months now since Dominic finished Reid’s bed, but seeing that Reid is four and still learning to keep things tidy, his room hasn’t really been picture lately. Reid’s room also doubles as our guest room so with visitors last month we got it all straightened. And before his little wild and crazy […]
I didn’t discover Usborne until we were a year or two into homeschooling. But, as they say, better late than never! Our family truly loves Usborne books for fun, but we also utilize them A LOT throughout our homeschool days. The other day I rounded up many of our top picks, but I figured it […]
It has been a hot minutes since I rounded up some favorites. And Usborne books definitely fall into the realm of favorites! These books are interactive, beautiful, and truly the highest quality. If I needed a new side hustle I’d be all for peddling these books. They’re just the best! Something I can recommend without […]

Sudden school closures due to COVID-19 have families entering the homeschooling world by surprise. It’s one thing to homeschool by choice or necessity, but this is quite the different spin on teaching children at home! But, don’t fear! You can totally do this! Begin with grabbing Teaching From Rest on Audible. It is a quick, […]
I keep a running list of books I want on Amazon. It is large. And long. And adds up to hundreds of dollars. Hence, it’s my wish list. Not my buy list. I use it for reference all the time though. At the homeschool secondhand store, at Goodwill, and now, at Book Outlet. The other […]
This post is in partnership with Nakturnal. It might still be 40 degrees out, but I’m definitely feelin’ the spring vibes lately! Bulbs are peeking through the dirt and I’m deep into my Lent sacrifice (no, not Catholic, but always up for a challenge to refocus). With Lent brings the anticipation of Easter … and […]
Have you heard? There is a new girl on the block in American Girl land! Last month, Joss Kendrick joined the American Girl family as the 2020 Girl of the Year and Jemma and I think she is just grand! Joss is a California girl, and naturally, in love with surfing. In her story, she […]
