As a homeschooling mom, it’s essential that we have a schedule and routine that we daily follow. But life can get boring if we just do the same old thing. In between our chores and school lessons we need something as a family that is fun, loving, and motivational. Sometimes we need to just…
Being a Mom and Wife is an amazing journey but it’s different then what I imagined. And there have been disappointments along the way. However, in the midst of it all God always gives me more than I ask for! I’m surprised by His ways and humbled. He meets me where I’m at…
