Lo, children are an heritage of the Lord: and the fruit of the womb is his reward (Psalm 127:3). Our second little girl completed Kindergarten! Awww, they seem to grow so fast! I really loved her Kindergarten age and she really enjoyed stepping out and going to school. Although, she didn’t have a graduation, we figured we’d let her wear a gown and take some

It’s being a little while since I introduced “Home and Family Chats“. However, I haven’t had a moment to share another one until now. Moving and relocating to a new state, making home, homeschooling, developing other posts for this blog, etc. it’s a lot.

It’s tough to accept that they are growing up! But as
Ah, my baby is growing up and is no longer a kindergartener! Do you have a growing “up too fast” little one at home and thinking about ways to boots creativity while encouraging quiet time during the summer? Or anytime?

Our kids love drawing and all things creating art! While I encourage their creations the mess that sometimes comes along with all the art papers all over the place is no fun! Our kids favorite papers to drawer on or create art is loose printer paper. They’d walk back and forth to the printer getting papers to do their art. All. The. Time. It didn’t
What’s with all this grill, power tools and equipment that dads often get for Father’s day? Whereas, there are so many frugal ideas out their when it comes to Mother’s day? Aren’t you tired of purchasing power tools for dad every year? Well, I’m sure dad is probably tired of receiving them! Although, if it’s a necessity and needed, I suppose dad wouldn’t mind it
Welcome Spring! To bring in some Spring into our home, I had the kids paint flower pots and plant little flowers in them. They are so happy with their creations.
