March 12, 2020 by Kendra 1 Comment

I tuck my babies in at night and my heart nearly bursts with love for them. They are amazing miracles of life and for some reason, God gave them to me. Right on the heels of this bursting-heart syndrome is an overwhelming realization that I am raising the future. My little boys, my sweet little boys will become men and what will these men be? The responsibility lays heavily on me. It burdens me down and there are days that […]

Buying our Dream Home – When God Answers Prayers

August 2, 2019 by Kendra 10 Comments

Last summer we found and bought our dream home. Long-time readers may remember that we bought our first home in our early 20’s and may also remember how we had set a goal of paying that house off in 10 years. Okay, spoiler alert, we didn’t get our first home paid off in 10 years. We were on track to be paid off in just under 12 years. Last Fall we had 3 years left to pay off our house. […]

October 4, 2018 by Kendra 20 Comments

Childbirth. A beautiful and terrible act. For pain and suffering to go hand in hand with bliss and rejoicing is nothing short of a miracle and that, of course, is exactly what birth is. We just welcomed our third son into the family and while I’ve not made time for blogging since the first of this year, writing is how I come to terms with things and so I’m writing again. Writing and sharing the birth story of our little […]

What’s the Point in Taking Kids to Church?

June 7, 2017 by Kendra 9 Comments

What's the point in taking kids to church? Here's my reason!

Memorial day weekend was our annual church conference and with 2 small tykes in tow, there were multiple times my head just hung down and I wondered what’s the point in taking kids to church? In fact I wondered why I was even trying. Most of my time in church was spent hushing little ones and picking up the few toys we allow them to bring. Then picking up bookmarks and pens, because kids will make toys out of anything. […]

36 simple chores for 2 and 3 year olds.

36 Simple Chores for 2 and 3 year olds to do around the house. All kids are different. My 1 year old is content to play for hours, my almost 3 year old has never been one to play for long. He likes to be right with me and some days I’m hard pressed to keep him entertained.  As a result, I’ve discovered simple chores that he can do with me as a way to keep him busy . Having […]

Children Change Relationships

Children change relationships. Really. Jason and I were the “kids” goofy, picking on each other, always on the go. Then we had Kolton. We were still kids, but someone we had a baby to keep alive as well. So things change a little. Then another child comes along and things change more. Children change relationships in many ways, on many levels. My relationship with Jason has changed. Relationships with my parents, siblings, cousins, aunts, friends, and so many other people […]

Hello all! I hope your weekend was restful and refreshing. Ours wasn’t exactly restful, but it was certainly wonderful! It’s back to cold weather here again, how wonderful is that? Not!

Please tell me I’m not the only one looking forward to spring blooms. 🙂 No post today, like I said, my weekend wasn’t exactly restful! However I do have […]

Hello all! I hope today finds you all in good health. We’ve been blessed with very good health this winter. Hubby had a repository thing for 2 weeks which wasn’t any fun, but the boys and I have been very healthy since right after Christmas. Just Saturday the boys started in with runny noses again. Uh Oh. Time to dose them up on broth again! While we’ve mostly enjoyed good health, there’s one thing we haven’t enjoyed this winter and that’s […]

Look Into Their Eyes – Plus Living Proverbs 31 Linkup

Disclaimer: A Proverbs 31 Wife uses Affiliate links and ads to support this site. Read full disclosure here.

February 26, 2017 by Kendra 6 Comments

Look into their eyes. Looking into your child's eyes helps build a connection between parent and child and encourages healthy communication.

As a mom I have a bad habit. When I’m scolding a child, or upset with the boys, I tend to look over their heads, or even have my eyes nearly shut as I scold/complain/give a command etc. But what I really need to do is look into their eyes. When you don’t look into a their eyes, a disconnect is happening. You can yell, scold, complain, whatever and you have no idea how it makes your child feel. Your child […]

Hey all! How’s it going? I cannot believe the weather here, as of today (Friday) it’s 60 plus degrees out and sunny! Odd for Feb. and while I love it, I’m also a little sad because at this point I’m not counting on any spring flowers. All the buds are already pushing and I doubt winter is over, so I guess the flowers are going to freeze. Oh well, we cannot have it all now can we? Once the babies […]

February 12, 2017 by Kendra 1 Comment

Driving down to my mom’s one afternoon I noticed all these houses with windows totally lit up. They were shining and sparkly as the sun’s rays bounced off of them. They looked so pretty on the outside. But, they were empty, glittery reflections. Driving home I noticed those same houses. This time however, there were no empty glittery reflections, just cold dark panes. Here and there a house was lit from the inside and those windows shone with a warm […]

Were you to go to any store during the week after Christmas, you would see huge lines. Not at the checkouts, but at the service desk as people are busy returning gifts they didn’t want. Today I want to ask: Will you be returning Jesus? The greatest gift ever given was Jesus. An innocent baby, God in disguise. We welcome him with praises and singing, we rejoice as we learn that this baby will be our redeemer. We read stories […]

The internet ruined parenting. With all the crowd-sourcing, googling, blogs and information the internet gives, being a parent should be the easiest thing in the world. But in many ways it’s made parenting much harder. The Internet Ruined Parenting by Convincing us the Kids are Dying When pregnant with my first, blood work showed me immune to measles. I asked my mom when I had them and she didn’t know. “You guys had so many little fevers and rashes,” she […]
