Life as a Boy Mom is so sweet. So rewarding. I grew up with sisters, but find it pretty natural to raise boys alongside my girls. Although, I cringe when dad teaches Jake how to use an ax – or operate heavy machinery, I…

So grateful to be home on a Monday! We learn at home, which can be difficult with littles running around. When I started homeschooling my kiddos, over six years ago, I had to learn how to teach my big kids whilst managing my toddler or baby. Littles are always included in morning time, for as long as they can be still. One thing that has benefited me is “lap school”. Singing and talking with my baby or toddler first thing in the morning. He does his “school” before the others, and gets one on one time with momma as he starts his day. I sure do love this age, but I think I say that for every year... And the glory of the Lord shall be revealed, and all flesh shall see it together. Isaiah 40:5 Lighting the first candle of Faith we spoke about how important it is to live in waiting. Waiting for Jesus’ arrival, while hoping to glorify Him in our works on earth. We chose to not teach our children about Santa to allow a deeper focus on the true meaning of Christmas. I lacked a Christian upbringing and didn’t give myself to Jesus until my early twenties. Each year I feel as I am learning right alongside them. I hope to encourage them, even at a young age, to grow strong in their understanding of Christ and Christmas, while I do the same. . . #firstdayofadvent #myfavoritetimeofyear #candleoffaith #christmas #missionfield #athome #motherhood #motherhoodunplugged #christianparenting #raisingarrows #raisingevangelists #theseasonforjesus #scripture #advent #givemejesus #jesusbirth #princeofpeace #messiah #whatmattersmost #jesusfirst #nextgeneration #circeinstitute Finishing out the semester before I can fully devote myself to my kiddos and the holidays! Winter and Christmas are my favorite, so I am finding it much harder to focus on nursing school rather than playing with the kids, homeschooling, and spending time in the kitchen. Half way to my RN and I am ready to give my brain a break. . . . #nursingschool #nursingstudent #futurern #homeschoolmomlife #busyseason #findingjoy #momof5 #lpn #rn #dayinthelife #christmas2019 #holidayseason #laboranddelivery #pediatrics #nontraditionalstudent #thisis31 #busymomma
