Every weekend you’re privy to to my favorite posts of the week. It’s a hodgepodge mix of things that make me grin, simplify life, or make your palette sing. This week is all about three sites to optimize blog growth! Who’d turn down the opportunity to see those blog stats climb? I’ve been following a…
Proven Best Motivational Tool for Birth
Scripture verses are a powerful motivator during birth. Focus is everything when you feel like you just can’t possibly do it any longer. For both the natural home birth of my daughter and my son’s hospital birth, Scripture note cards were incredibly helpful to pull through the pain & remember that my Creator fashioned my…
Nursing in Church
Okay, I admit, I don’t exactly breastfeed in church services. I nurse in the church nursery. That’s not really the heart of this post, but naming my post “The Best Nursing Dress on the Face of the Planet” just seemed too long and a whole lot less controversial. I’ve shared with you about Seraphine Maternity…
How I Weaned My Toddler
Weaning is a subjective subject. Every family has their own methods, every child their own timing.

How to Bless a New Mom

Whipped Belly Butter

Whipped belly butter can help! I’m astoundingly grateful that God changed my heart about motherhood and happy to tell…
