For all my fellow mothers in a season of exhaustion – who feel like they can hardly put one foot in front of the other, who are worn “even before the day begins”, who are even more soul weary than they are physically weary, who are walking through trial while caring for the needs of [...]

Another amazing study on the benefits of pregnancy: According to Krulwich there is increasing evidence that “when a woman has a baby, she gets not just a son or daughter, [but] an army of protective cells – gifts from her children that will stay inside her and defend her for the rest of her life.” [...]

Excellent insight from Rachel Jankovic: The good news is, you don’t need to have been through some elite mother’s training camp to apply the gospel in your life. You need to believe. Trust God, give thanks. Laugh. Believe — and that will feed your children. Rest in God, and your children will learn to. Extend [...]

More from Sarah Mae: Older women, we need you! We need you to come alongside us to teach us and to help us. Many women feel like they are drowning – can you lend a hand? Is there a mom of little ones in your church or neighborhood you can help? How about a family [...]

From Sarah Mae at Like a Warm Cup of Coffee It is okay to feel overwhelmed and crazy sometimes, because that’s just life (and life with little ones sure brings out the ugly in this mama’s heart). It’s not okay to act as though they are the problem; my sweet babies who were born with [...]

From Michelle at “She Looketh Well” : I suspect you might poo-poo what I am writing to you about because I did for years. I always had to do and do and do. I wasn’t doing enough. I was selfish or lazy. Learning all I have about our health, namely our adrenal glands, I now [...]

From Lea Ann Garfias over at LAF: I have not always felt “quiet confidence” in rearing little dynamos. To the contrary, I was fairly certain my first toddler was destined for juvie. He began several mornings in a row by shaking his little fist in my face, declaring, “I will not obey you today, Mommy!” [...]

Important reminders from my sister Clara: It’s so easy to rush through them in an effort to get to “the things that matter”. We hurry the kids through breakfast so we can “get on with the day”; we count down the minutes til naptime so we can “get something done” while they sleep. We tell [...]

An excellent reminder from Rachel Jankovic: If you are a Christian woman who loves the Lord, the gospel is important to you. It is easy to become discouraged, thinking that the work you are doing does not matter much. If you were really doing something for Christ you would be out there, somewhere else, doing [...]
