Spending quality time with each of my babies is important. But it’s often hard. And I only have 2 kids. Malachi is easy enough, he needs my constant care so he gets lots of “mommy time”, but it’s a little harder with the toddler. Problem is, I cannot always do anything special with just my toddler. We read books, but baby is taking most of the attention. We take walks, but baby faces mommy, and toddler faces forward. I know […]
Just My Son and I
Disclaimer: A Proverbs 31 Wife uses Affiliate links and ads to support this site. Read full disclosure here.It was a busy day. I didn’t have to go to work that day, but still got up at 6:30 to get started on my chores. The to-do list was a mile long. Food needed prepared so we could eat.

Little things like my rather little house for instance. 🙂 I do realize that our house is average for many, but having grown up out in the country in a huge farm house, town is a little tight sometimes. When we were first married, we lived in a duplex. I highly doubt we had more than 600sq ft of living space there. It was nice, […]
A Springtime Walk
Disclaimer: A Proverbs 31 Wife uses Affiliate links and ads to support this site. Read full disclosure here.Quality Time = A closer relationship/friendship. Something hubby and I both love is nature, walking around parks and in the woods make us happy. Many times we just walk, we don’t usually talk about anything deep or meaningful at all, “Look over there at those two birds” and “Smell this flower!” are about the extent of our conversations. Sometimes we pretend to push each other off the path; or if there is water nearby, we may try to get the […]
