If you are like me, you cannot afford to eat all organic foods. Unfortunately, due to the high prices and the amount of fresh produce we eat, my food budget would run out far sooner than our need for food would! That’s why I am so thankful for the work the Environmental Working Group (EWG)…
I’m an avid reader. Not only do I enjoy reading, but I enjoy learning. When I read, it’s usually with the intent to learn something. I want to read items that will help me gain understanding of the times, how to take better care of my family’s health, and how to be a better mama. …
How do I begin a blog post with a story that is worthy of a megaphone heard world-wide? I’d like to stand on the hilltops dancing praises to Jesus and declaring His great worth before all the nations rather than writing a measly post. However small it may seem, my prayer is that this story…
Whew! I’m taking a breather in the midst of a very busy (and very sweet) season of life to participate in a really fun blog award. My friend Ashley, who regularly cracks me up as she writes over at Pencilled Daydream, nominated me for the Liebster Award. The Liebster Blog Award is given to upcoming bloggers…
What an exciting week we’ve had at our house! On Saturday the 18th, her due date, we welcomed Tirza (Teer-zuh) Katherine into our family. My history of going well past my due date had me originally thinking it would be the same this time around. However, when we found out that our dear friend Katherine,…
34 weeks pregnant with a head cold so bad that I cannot breathe at all through my nose that has major sinus pressure, a frog voice with a yucky cough and general malaise all week long has been trying. Not to mention two sick kids, a few broken household appliances and unexpected expenses costing over…
Due to popular demand, I’m updating this post with a recent picture and the most recent comments I’ve been receiving. I’m nearing the end…must….persevere….3ish weeks! Scroll to the very end for updates. Okay people, the comments have started and aren’t going to stop. After skyping with my mom on the phone today, I decided that…
It’s that time again! There have been so many favorite things this week! I can’t wait to get back here to write more beyond the surface, but life has continued to be super-full (hmm, not sure that it will cease!). 1. Company in our home. Blane has been driving 3 hours a day since we…
I love sharing things I come across and enjoy, and also love hearing from others about what they enjoy, too! Here are a few more of mine…I think it will just become a Friday tradition. 1. UCreate. I have always loved being crafty, but since having two kids, my crafty side has gone on hiatus. …
I’m over at Every Bitter thing is Sweet today, posting about my dealing with hurt from others.
I was reveling in the blessing of several things yesterday, so I thought I’d share of them today. These are a few of my favorite things right now… My new ovens. If you’d seen my last oven, you’d be rejoicing with me. It was about 40 years old and a fraction of the the size…
