More Than Just a House Maid : What Is a Stay-at-Home Mom Worth?

More Than Just a House Maid : What Is a Stay-at-Home Mom Worth?

One of my good friends said to me just the other day, “Staying home with my kids is hard.  I feel like there is so much more to me.  I’m more than just a house maid.”  She’s an awesome woman who stays home for the sake of being there for her boys, even though she could probably be whatever she… Read More

This quote is framed on my wall because I love it so much! I hope it helps you too

I don’t want to drive up to the pearly gates in a shiny sports car, wearing beautifully, tailored clothes, my hair expertly coiffed, and with long, perfectly manicured fingernails. I want to drive up in a station wagon that has mud on the wheels from taking kids to scout camp. I want to be there with grass stains on my shoes from… Read More

A Morning Dilemma

A Morning Dilemma

This morning I had a parenting dilemma.  Not a big deal, but a dilemma still.  So we had a crazy-as-usual morning.  Breakfast, scriptures, piano practicing, lunch-making are usually on the to-do list before 8:00 a.m.  I did not have any time to get dressed, so I actually drove my kidlets to school in my pajamas (which for me are a… Read More

Motherhood Can Be FUN . . . if you let it

Motherhood Can Be FUN . . . if you let it

I think sometimes we forget that being a mom CAN and SHOULD be FUN.  Why is that? Is it because of never-ending dishes in the sink, piles of laundry, or a floor that never stays clean (my personal pet peeve)?  Yup, I think that’s one reason. But I think there’s more to it than that. I think we often live… Read More

My Confession

My Confession

Here’s my big confession:  I’m not perfect . . . (yeah, I know you are NOT shocked by this).  And I’m not going to pretend to be perfect on this blog either, as you may have already seen.

Piles of Crepe

Piles of Crepe

I had a bad cooking day.  This happens to me often.  I’m learning to cook.  I’m not horrible, but I’m no expert and I need lots of practice.  So today I was in the mood for crepes.  Yes, warm, thin, powdered with sugar crepes.  So I decided to have them for dinner.  The recipe for crepes is super simple.  Like… Read More
