Welcome back, friends! As I get closer to my due date for baby #5, I find myself preparing more and more for my unmedicated labor at home. I recently created my Birth Affirmation and Scripture Wall you can find linked HERE. Next on my list was assembling my birth music playlist. These worship songs have helped me in my previous unmedicated births to focus my mind on Adonai, the Giver of Life! Below you’ll find powerful worship songs that promote peace, hope, and faith to remind us of WHO is in control of our labors and births!             ..read more

Hi there, friends! Today, I'm sharing the finished product of my birth affirmation wall for my fifth unmedicated birth, and my first INTENTIONAL home birth. My goal was to create a designated space filled with Scripture and encouragement to focus on throughout my labor and birth. I even got my children involved, (which was the sweetest idea), for an extra personal touch from my four tiny previous blessings! To find a FULL list of all of my birth affirmations and Scripture verses, you can find them in my blog post HERE. Hope you enjoy :) *(This post contains affiliate links, which means if you ..read more

Welcome back to my weekly blog post, friends! Today I'm sharing a review on the reading program, “Teach Your Child to Read in 100 Easy Lessons!” I used this program with my 4 year old (now 6 year old who is in first grade), and I plan to continue using it with my four younger children. It’s because of this program that my child started reading books before we even finished the 100 lessons! What a joy it’s been to enter our first year of homeschool with a life skill that has already been nurtured, and developed into a love for reading! I hope you enjoy! *(This post contains affiliate links, whi ..read more

From the moment I heard of a Mother's Basket, (aka one consolidated place to keep all items that inspire the MOTHER), I knew I had to make my own. This is a sacred basket of items I can reach for on early mornings, rainy days of leisure, restful Sabbaths, or lonely nights. It’s a place where I can learn, grow, challenge myself, and feel inspired! Today, I'm going to give you a tour of my Mother's Basket, and let you see just what's inside, (and in no particular order). *(This post contains affiliate links, which means if you order from these links you will be supporting my blog in a small way ..read more
