Scrap it All (Part1)
Why did I ditch my Work In Progress? I was writing and writing and writing. The words were there but they held little meaning and even less action. My normal writing speed was over 3 months off. I had deadlines looming and dread festering in my stomach. I was stuck. Even though I told myself it would all pan out if I just kept putting down the words. The truth was life had stunned me and stunted my story. The first 50,000 words of my 3rd novel came to me in less than 30 days. Another successful Nano experiment. Fast forward from November to March and I’d only added 11,000…

Easter Books to Recenter Your Family
Easter: It’s not just bunnies and chocolate, noodle salad, and colored eggs. It’s betrayal and denial. Blood and spit. Desperation and Hope. Easter is death overcome by Life. In my house, we love to celebrate the fun and family the holiday offers. But most importantly we take purposful pause to redirect and remember what Easter is all about… True Love… Rescue… Jesus. Here are a few books we love to read together around Easter time. We know you and your children will enjoy them, as well. For the Littles: We love JellyTelly and What’s in the Bible with Buck Denver. This little book sums up Easter in their charming puppety…

Meet Our Math Time Buddy
Dyslexia is a giving disability. It gives us trouble in reading, trouble in writing, and trouble in math. This equals hands-on Mom and me school time, all day long. When my student was still little this was a blessing. It was a time to reassure and comfort my struggling learner. The older my student gets the more independence they crave and the more frustrated they become when they NEED mom’s help. Enter Teaching Textbooks After hours of repeated and laborious instruction in reading and writing, the last thing my mother/child relationship needs is another round in math. Teaching Textbooks works fabulously for my struggling learner. I oversee everything, from a…

Your Church doesn’t Support Homeschooling?
It’s wild! Your family thinks you’re nuts. But you know, in your core, you’ve been called to home educate your kids. Your conviction is deep. This is what God is leading your family to do. Even, your husband knows it. And you’ve told your family. They might not be pleased. But at least you’ll be able to get the support you need at church. Until… you don’t! Shock. Confusion. Tiny twinges of frustration and disappointment ripple through you. You’re doing what you believe is right. Your choice to obey God’s call to homeschool comes with its share of sacrifices. But you never thought, alienation from your church family would be…

Late Night Brew How to
So, I don’t call it Late Night Coffee Moms for nothing. This mama’s first cup of hot fresh coffee usually comes late at night once everyone is resting. That’s also when I get creative. You can often find me writing away while my coffee steams beside me. Here’s my favorite way to brew: 1- Get your Favorite Coffee You all know my favorite is the Dark Side Blend by Abide Coffee Roasters. I like to grind my beans right before brewing. But if you don’t have beans your favorite ground coffee will do. 2- Heat your Water I use an Instant Hot Kettle. It’s just faster and I want my…

He Holds Us: SOS
My all time favorite Bible verse isn’t profound or deep. It doesn’t even hold the name of Jesus in it. It’s simple, tangible, and overwhelmingly loving… much like Grace and the Gospel. Snag your coffee and your Bible and hang out with me in Song of Solomon… aka Song of Songs… aka the naughty book of the Bible. Press play.
