But a question I get asked often is “what tips do I have when it comes to transitioning from one to two kids?” It was a little over two years ago now that our family made the transition to having two kids (two and under by the way.) And I will say right now that I don’t know everything and everything I did in our transition to two kids worked. But a lot of what I did and what I…
In my last post I mentioned how disciplining your kids with God’s Word can make your mothering so much easier. And apparently that peaked so many mothers’ interests. I have had so many questions since then about how I do this and if I can share examples. So that’s what this post is going to be. God gives us His Word “for teaching, for reproof, for correction, and for training in righteousness, that the man of God may be complete, equipped for every good work.” (1 Tim. 3:16b-17) And I believe that includes training, correcting, and disciplining our kids. Like…
In a few months we are going to be welcoming the third little addition to our family. But I know that will also come with some change. So I have been taking steps to prepare myself, my boys, and my home for the transition. Over the past few months I have been incorporating different systems to hopefully help both myself and my toddlers transition to becoming a family of five a little easier. Whether you are getting ready to welcome a new little one, you are freshly postpartum, or are just looking for some ways to make your life easier…
A common theme I hear from women recently is how much their family needs breakthrough from the Lord. Whether that is breakthrough for their husband’s faith, work problems, family issues, generational struggles, financial difficulties, their own faith, and so on I am hearing the need for breakthrough and desire to pray for it. But so many women just don’t know how to pray for breakthrough for their families. I wish I could give you a script on what to pray but every situation and family is different. So below I am going to share what I can to encourage you…
*This post contains affiliate links. Thank you so much for shopping with my links! If you are currently in the season of mothering young ones you are probably up all night. Your time to yourself is very short if you can find any at all. And your quiet time with Lord may be falling to the back burner. I get it! Right now I am currently in the season of motherhood where I am constantly surrounded by little ones all day long (and even throughout the night.) Reading my Bible was not a priority of my for many years. And…
I always get questions from women who are wanting to know how to do it all when it comes to homemaking. They look at the Proverbs 31 Woman and see how efficient but peaceful her life is. How can they get that too? There is so much that goes into taking care of a home and a family. Every day is different, but at the same time we do the same tasks each day. It’s easy to lose ourselves in the mess and responsibilities. But I believe as daughters of God we can and should have a peaceful and efficient…
There is such a need for women to get theirselves and their homes in order for the Lord. And if you are a mother that includes getting your mothering in order. You are raising children for the kingdom of God. The Lord did not just bless you with your children to raise to a certain age just so they can leave and live their own lives. He blessed you with them to raise as disciples for His work. Mothering in such a difficult job but it is so needed. And it’s time that we start getting it in order for…
