Making it Impossible to Not Think About God
This is a guest post from Jessica Smartt of Smartter Each Day. When I was a little girl, I would crouch by the window at night, waiting for my dad to come home. If he was late, my stomach would be in knots until I saw the lights of his car circle the driveway. As a child, that was about all I knew of worry. I had a traumatic time in college, but other than that, life breezed by, more or … [Read more...]
Are you trying to find your way through the real food jungle? When I first started eating "real food," I wasn't sure where to go for information, let alone recipes I could actually make for my family they would actually enjoy. Heck, that I would enjoy! If you're just getting started, or if you're looking for new recipes and information about the real food world, then I think I have something for … [Read more...]
Photo Credit: Francois Schnell: Creative Commons This post is written by contributing writer, Brenda from Triple Braided. Right when I think I have silenced the Martha within me, she comes back shaming me into something else that I must be doing. Her words always sound so official as she quotes statistics and tells real-life stories of what just might happen if I don't listen to her. This … [Read more...]
Several weeks ago Stacy from A Delightful Home sent me her eBook Simple Scrubs to Make and Give to review.

It mattered not whether you were a mom, single, young or old, you wanted me to tell you more about ways to pamper yourselves. I have to be … [Read more...]

Samuel has been full blown teething these last several days. I feel so sorry for him. This round seems to be the hardest yet. He's so cranky, and we constantly refer to him as, "Drool Monkey." Poor thing. We have found several ways to help relieve his teething discomfort without using Children's Tylenol, which is full of high fructose corn syrup. I thought I'd share them with you. 1. Chicken … [Read more...]
Today I'm joining Christian Mommy Blogger and The Purposed Heart in a mini cloth diaper series. I was asked to share my cloth diaper routine, and since we've already been talking about cloth diapering around here, I readily agreed! I hope to give you an overview of what cloth diapering looks like for us day-to-day. Although it looks mostly the same each day, there are days when diapers stack … [Read more...]

Cloth diapering has been, for us, an experiment – a trial and error of sorts. Families experience cloth diapering their babies in different ways, and what works for one family may not work for another. For example, I have friends who use All-in-One cloth diapers. I find them far too hard to launder because they take so long to dry. I like the quick drying qualities of Pocket Diapers. Still … [Read more...]
