Why I Admire Homeschool Moms

Last week I talked a little bit about the disagreement between moms about which is better: working or staying at home. Likewise, there is also disagreement about whether to homeschool children or send them to either public or private school for their education. It can be a really tough decision choosing between the public and private schools in houston, let alone bringing homeschooling into the mix! There is just so much to think about. Choosing the type of school is just the beginning, as then as a parent you need to pay close attention to the secondary school league tables,…

The Best Shoes

In Ephesians 6:15, Paul tells us: For shoes, put on the peace that comes from the Good News so that you will be fully prepared. In order for us to really understand this verse, I think we need to dissect it first.  Let’s start from the beginning. Why shoes? According to Merriam-Webster, a shoe is “an outer covering for the human foot,” or “a metal plate or rim for the hoof of an animal.”  In other words, it is protection for feet.  Our feet are sensitive, and sticks, stones, and other debris (like Legos!) can cause us serious pain when…

Reading List Review: October 2015

So I didn't read nearly as much as I did in August, but one of the books I am currently reading is extremely long, so that has been taking up a lot of my time.  For the rest of the year, I am going to attempt to read 3 or 4 more books per month so I can at least get through the books I wanted to read by the end of the year.  The books on deck will be added to the top of my list for next year (which I hope is full of reading!).  I have also been…

Why I Admire Working Moms

Correct me if I'm wrong, but I feel I've been a mom long enough to say that there is a small rift between mothers. The working kind. The kind that says, "You're a stay at home mom, so you don't do anything all day," or the kind that says, "You willingly leave your children all day to go to work." I know this rift isn't there for all women, but I know that it's there in some places. That's why I'm here to say today that, as a stay-at-home mom, I admire you. The working moms. Here's why: Sometimes you…
