This guy helped me wheelbarrow 2 cubic yards (that

This guy helped me wheelbarrow 2 cubic yards (that’s a LOT!) of top soil from our front yard up the big hill to our backyard this afternoon. This 18’ x 4’ bed is now filled and ready to hold asparagus and strawberries!
.
I’m still working on getting back to “normal” and still have physical therapy twice a week from a nasty car wreck in October of 2019. Learning to work in small increments and learning that I just can’t do some things (yet!) has been difficult. 3 years ago this project would have been completed in a week or two at most. This has been going on for a while and my impatience has reared its head more than once. But my inability to do has allowed my boys many opportunities to step into their own capacity and learn and help in ways they might not have gotten to if I hadn’t been hurt.
.
Elizabeth Elliot said that severe mercies are still mercies. And I must say that I agree.
.
Is there some act or task you inevitably do just to get it done in your time and your way? Could I encourage you to step back and allow your children the chance to step in? The initial response will be correction (at least if you’re a recovering perfectionist like me 🤷🏻‍♀️), but you’ll learn to say thank you and praise the wonderful young person your child is growing into. Telling them how you think the Lord might use their gifts, and how their servant hearts will be such a blessing to their family someday speaks life into their tender hearts and points them to the reason these mundane tasks like hauling dirt around are really the beautiful, simple graces that allow us to show love in tangible ways.

I won’t share all the details, but we had a hard

I won’t share all the details, but we had a hard day due to impulsivity, bad choices, and some sadness. So we paused for a reset of chamomile tea and fresh popped popcorn with olive oil and salt prefaced by the Midday Prayer from our beloved Celtic Daily Prayer book.
.
It didn’t fix everything and it didn’t undo the events before or after, but sometimes a bit of respite in the middle of the chaos of hard days is enough. A brief prayer together and a story we all love reminds us that we are sharing in this life together and that we love each other because our precious Savior first loved us.
.
And lest you think tea with my boys is idyllic - there were spills, sibling directed eye-rolls, and the sugar bowl had to be relocated away from a certain red head who thinks sugar is the best thing ever 🤷🏻‍♀️. But it was still a break and lovely in its own boyish way.
.
Now, I believe we’re all off for an early bedtime. Have a beautiful evening, friend.

Meet Jo, Lizzie, and Lucy. They are all snuggled up in the brooder now. And I’m officially banned from in-store pickup at our local feed store until they are out of chicks again 😂🤷🏻‍♀️🐥.
.
On the upside, the two lavender Orpingtons are the boys’ 4H poultry for this fall, so really *I* only got one new bird 😉.
.
Have you ever been a victim of chicken math?!?

Boys and dogs 😍💖🤷🏻‍♀️. I love ho

Boys and dogs 😍💖🤷🏻‍♀️. I love how Reagan has worked himself into our family rhythms and worked around some of our rules 😂. Like sleeping in the bed with T and sitting on the furniture 🤷🏻‍♀️. There are some things that we try to control that are simply out of our human reach. And that’s okay. The Lord is good in all things and He knows what we need, whether it’s our pets or children. So friend, I would encourage you to pick your battles wisely. There is beauty and joy to be found in the natural rhythms of grace.

When the house gets quiet, I never know what I’m

When the house gets quiet, I never know what I’m going to find! This time it was a chemistry kit on the deck. Not quite cold enough for frozen bubbles, but there’s always Thursday.
.
This is one of the best benefits of strewing- basically strategically leaving books, kits, etc. lying around to be “discovered” without your suggesting it 😉. Have you tried this method of occupying vacant hours?

Yahoo! My first batch of strawberry hibiscus home

Yahoo! My first batch of strawberry hibiscus home brewed kombucha is a success! It’s been years since I made kombucha so I was worried that I might not get it fizzy enough the first time or two, but that line of bubbles is just right.
.
Sometimes tiny domestic victories are just the thing to remind us that being able to laugh at the future depends on living contentedly in the joy of the Lord right now.
.
The P31 woman didn’t really have a “secret” that evades us, we just have a culture that confuses us through so many small but never ceasing whispers of self-reliance and self-fulfillment that we become uneasy, unrooted, and discontent.
.
Perfect love casts out fear. Let us be fearless and joyful as we begin this new and wondrous week tomorrow and mark the beginning of the Lenten season on Wednesday. What a glorious time to be alive.

I didn’t sleep well last night and had a very ea

I didn’t sleep well last night and had a very early appointment for physical therapy. We’ve had several difficult weeks in a row, and I am tired. I was feeling a little disheartened over attitudes and squabbles and crept back into the house with a good deal of apprehension.
.
And my boys had put away all their laundry, done their math, and my little one was making me breakfast of egg in a basket.
.
Friend, these days are fleeting but they matter. Our pouring into these children matters. These hearts matter. Every time we choose to be a servant leader, even through weariness and wondering if any of our efforts will ever see fruit, we are shaping the outlook and priorities of our children. And in turn, they are shaping us.
.
May you get a glimpse of the wonderful person your sweet ones are growing into today and may it be a balm for your mama heart.

The frog (sorry, toad) is as unimpressed as I am 😳. Life with boys is never dull.

There’s something wonderful about planning a gar

There’s something wonderful about planning a garden and ordering seeds. As we’re on a mission this year to support more small businesses, I’ve found some lovely seed suppliers.
.
This small batch with a sweet, handwritten note is from @zillysgarden, a seller you can find on Instagram and Etsy. We’ve gotten vegetable seeds from @bakercreekseeds, @sowtrueseed, and herb seeds from @strictlymedicinalseeds.
.
If gardening is part of your homeschool (we love it!), then you will definitely enjoy these small shops with lovely and helpful owners. Be sure to grab a My Garden Journal from our shop so your little gardeners can have a good record of what they grow!

“In the child is much knowledge, much wisdom. If

“In the child is much knowledge, much wisdom. If we do not profit from it, it is only because of neglect on our part to become humble and to see the wonder of this soul and learn what the child can teach.” - Maria Montessori
.
This boy is 11 years old today. We had our annual mama/son birthday breakfast date this morning and I snapped a single picture of him, considering the options at his favorite local cafe.
.
He is such a gift. He marches to his own rhythm. He teaches me patience, and to slow down. He takes me by the arm now and opens the door for me. He keeps me humble and prayerful. He is a thoughtful and sometimes apprehensively careful boy.
.
I am thankful to be his mama. I am thankful for all our challenges and how they have grown both of us. I am thankful for his unbending defense of what is right. I am forever grateful that the Lord in His grace gave us this precious child.
.
What a grand adventure this life is 💖.
