The Power of Hope in the Darkness

April 11, 2019 by Kendra 10 Comments

Power of Hope in Darkness Have you ever considered the power of hope when you’re in the dark? Whether your current darkness is an illness, lost job, overwhelm from life, whatever, it’s likely that hope is the only thing keeping you going. I’m not going to sugarcoat the truth. I think most of us struggle with depression and darkness at least once in our lifetime. For some, the darkness is there more than the light, but you just hang on. […]

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 – Living Proverbs 31 Wife

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 […]

The Internet Ruined Parenting

December 11, 2016 by Kendra 5 Comments

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 […]

October 30, 2016 by Kendra 11 Comments

I'm living my dream, but it isn't always what I thought it would be.

For years I worked outside of the home, I enjoyed each of the jobs I held during those 6-7 years but I had a goal, a purpose, a dream and I worked towards it. Today I’m living my dream, and I thought I would share a little more about that! I’m living my dream as a stay at home mom. Admittedly I’m not always home, and I’ve found that spending 100% of my time with the kids makes me a little […]

Whew! It’s been quite the busy last two weeks. We left on the second of this month for a week in Kansas with some of our Oregon, Colorado and Kansas Relatives. The goal was to help Jason’s grandma with repairs around the house. From our house to grandma’s is a 14 hour journey. With two small kids, it takes much longer than that! Fortunately our trip is split up by stopping at an uncle’s place after 10 hours and then […]

How a Text Changed our marriage

July 31, 2016 by Kendra 4 Comments

We live in the day of modern technology and that’s not all bad. Texting for example is a tool, it can be used for good or for bad. Here’s how a text changed our marriage for the better! Jason has never been a texter. Although to be honest, aside from that short time we dated, he’s never been one to leave notes either. I’ve accepted that romance does not a relationship make and learned to appreciate my strong steady man for […]

Sacrificing the Family?

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

July 3, 2016 by Kendra 3 Comments

In my recent morning bible reading, I came across different accounts of the Israelite’s whoring after other Gods. One of the huge things that stood out to me was the way they sacrificed their children to these false Gods. My mother-heart was horrified. Not only were these ungrateful people turning from the God who offered them such great deliverance, they were throwing their God-given blessings into the fires of false Gods. Burning their children. Killing them. Basically turning their backs […]

May 8, 2016 by Kendra 2 Comments

Dog shaming and proud parenting moments. Life at its best.

  A common remark on the trials of Motherhood is “This too shall pass”. It is well meaning, but leaves a lot of us  waiting for it to pass. Waiting for the sleepless nights to be over. Waiting on the potty training to be finished. Waiting on them to grow out the “busy stage”. Waiting on the craziness to end. Waiting for a night when you can shower by yourself. Waiting. And soon enough it has passed but another challenge […]

November 8, 2015 by Kendra 6 Comments

I’m giving away the best years of my life y’all. Giving them to a demanding toddler who needs much training and guidance. I’m giving away the best of my body as I’m growing little lives inside me and nourishing them outside of me. Instead of doing what I want, chasing personal dreams, and working on my “life bucket list” I’m at the beck and call of a family. These are the best years of my life and I’m just giving […]

Whew! We’ve been back in our home state for a few days now and things are finally settling down. Let me tell you, crossing 3 time zones with a small tot is nothing short of a challenge. Especially when said small tot has cousins who share things like runny noses. 😛 We sure had a lot of fun and really enjoyed being with family. Kolton loved having his cousins to play with and I suspect a few more years will […]

Thoughtless Parenting Advice – The Worst

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

October 11, 2015 by Kendra 13 Comments

As a parent, I get lots of advice. Most of it is good, some of it is annoying, and some is downright strange (seriously this is my favorite as I enjoy a good laugh!). But in my opinion, the worst kind is thoughtless parenting advice. By this I mean the glib, tip of the tongue responses people tend to spout off for certain circumstances. It’s not bad advice, but it’s something we moms are already aware of and quite frankly […]

If Momma Isn’t Happy, We Have a Problem

July 26, 2015 by Kendra 11 Comments

It’s an old saying “If Momma Isn’t Happy, then Nobody’s Happy”. I find that statement to be pretty true. As the “queens of our homes” we are largely responsible for the attitudes that are found there. How we feel about order and cleanliness will be reflected in the overall appearance of our homes, and how we feel about life will be reflected in our family’s attitude. If we are short-tempered or easily frustrated, our kids will quickly pick up on that and […]

A man may struggle against porn, but a woman's battle is against gossip

Gossip. It could very easily be the woman’s besetting sin. Whereas men may struggle with keeping their thoughts pure, a woman’s battle is against gossip. A Woman’s Battle is Against Gossip I’m a talker. Anyone who knows me well at all, knows this. But more and more I’m realizing that all my talking may not always be good. In fact, many times my talking could be the very opposite of good. It didn’t use to bother me. In fact, for […]

Mom's Lunchtime: I think she's supposed to be eating, but it doesn't seem to be happening... why?

Mom’s lunchtime: Right before that blessed period called naptime, in which all moms look forward to a little peace and quiet; occurs a tragedy called lunchtime. This time of day is most taxing, and all moms who make it through, deserve a medal for bravery. However, the only badge most mom’s get for surviving mom’s lunchtime, is in the form of refused and flying food. Mom’s Lunchtime ~A Tragedy: Cast: A frazzled mom. A colicky baby. A busy toddler.

There is a season for everything. 30 Days of thankfulnes day 9

Originally this title was to be change. However I decided that seasons would be a better fit. Ecclesiastes 3:1 To every thing there is a season, and a time to every purpose under the heavens. Seasons mark the passing of time. I was doing a bit of searching for the word “season” in the bible and It seemed in many cases to be used synonymously with the word time. Our lives have many seasons, and throughout those different seasons, we […]

Siblings 30 days of Thanksging day 5

Ah… Those with siblings, know best what it’s like growing up with another person around; leeching on mom and dad’s time and money right along with you! Romans 12:10 Be kindly affectioned one to another with brotherly love; in honour preferring one another. Siblings: I grew up with 5 other little persons. Two of those were enough younger than I that they were more “my babies” than my siblings. However, the two oldest boys, and my sister were certainly growing […]

Parents. Day 4 of 30 days

Yesterday we talked aobut grandparents, today we are talking about parents. Proverbs 4:1,3 Hear, ye children, the instruction of a father, and attend to know understanding; For I was my father’s son, tender and beloved in the sight of my mother. It took becoming a mom myself to truly understand how much my own mother loves me.  The natural love that God puts into a parent’s heart for their child is an amazing thing. Our parents are not perfect. They […]
