Finding Life beyond the struggles
Happy Tuesday! Did you know that today is the beginning of a Biblical New Year? I actually did not know this until this morning. I guess today is the perfect day to begin our study of the Book of John, then, huh? Today is also a good day to think about extra curricular activities for... Continue Reading →
Do you remember how exciting field trip days were? A day of not sitting at a boring desk, reading out of the same material, shuffling from class to class, just going through the mundane monotony. Believe it or not, sometimes homeschooling can feel the same way. Thankfully it doesn't have to be all school books... Continue Reading →
I first wrote this post in September 2020. Not much has changed since our first year of homeschooling, including my opinion. We have found great new materials to use and we've brought Isbe in with her very own workbooks (per her request, of course). This year, I'll even be doing some homeschooling myself, as I...

It seems like there's quite a few babies being born or about to be born, at least in my circle. For all the new parents out there, I want to share my favorite products for newborns. These are the products and companies I will always recommend to the pregnant women in my life. My 6... Continue Reading →
On our mini-cation last month, we explored the Blue Zoo Aquarium, the OKC Zoo, and the Science Museum Oklahoma.

Do you guys ever have a day when electronics just hate you? That was my Monday. My laptop was dead, my internet was spotty because of the storms, and my phone was on the fritz again.

As a stay at home mom, I have pretty much mastered the art of tuning out whatever my kids are watching. You know those shows they watch over and over and over. As my time as a SAHM has grown, I have pretty much learned what shows I can tolerate day in and day out.... Continue Reading →
Hello everyone! How are you doing today? It's been chilly but bright for us today. Last November I wrote about our most recent potty training journey with Isbe. I was convinced she would be fully potty trained by the time the new year rolled around. Well in case you haven't guessed, it didn't happen. She... Continue Reading →
Merry Christmas Eve eve, everyone! How are you doing on your Christmas shopping? Are you rushing for last minute gifts or are all the presents wrapped and under the tree? We finished our shopping weeks ago, but it wasn't until Monday that I stopped procrastinating and finished wrapping up a few little presents to be... Continue Reading →
Today is just "one of those days". I woke up wishing for more sleep as I was up a lot with Isbe throughout the night. There have been a few times I wanted to put myself in timeout. Then to top it all off, one of the hubby's presents came in completely wrong and the... Continue Reading →
