Hey Mama!
Are you struggling to help your kiddos feel loved? Do they constantly need something from you and you just can't seem to keep up or figure out how to manage all the kids and their constant need for attention?
Whether you are adding another child into your home, or you have several kids you are trying to keep happy and help them feel loved, this is for you. We all feel loved in different ways, kids are the same. And each child in a family are all going to need different things in order to feel loved. So how do you navigate this all? It can be hard.
You may feel like you are doing everything right, then your kids say something like, you love her more than me! Or why do you love the baby more than you love me? Or maybe it’s more subtle cues like acting out when it’s out of the norm, or being more clingy and you just can’t understand why? You aren’t failing. It’s easy to feel that way and let mom guilt creep in, but you aren’t. Maybe you just need to adjust your methods a little. These two tips can help!

It can feel like all it is, is poopy diapers and spit up for days, then they grow up and its driving them here and there, cleaning, laundry and cooking for days because, well, growing kids eat A LOT. It can feel like it’s the same, day in and day out and you just wake up to do the same things over and over and over again.
Life can be monotonous when you are at home with your kids. Stay at home moms, you wake up get your kids going, change the poopy diapers clean the house and do your chores, try to keep the kids entertained and find fun things for them to do so you can all stay sane, work from home moms, it’s a constant battle to keep the kids happy, clean and fed, and get all your work done, moms that work out of the house, you get up, get the kids ready drop them off, go to work, come home and do all the evening things for your family, then wake up the next day just to do it over again.

It’s time to reclaim your life, to live full of joy and be restored back to who God has called you to be. Check out these 7 tips to help get out of mommy burnout!

Hey Mama!
Lack of sleep has gotten me ever since we came back from the hospital since Caleb was diagnosed with type 1 Diabetes, but that’s ok. It’s just a season. But this is a season that many mamas can’t just say that’s ok to. They are completely drained, exhausted, and have a hard time just getting through the day let alone enjoy the season.
So how do you make it through this season and be able to enjoy it despite the lack of sleep? These 6 tips will help!
Remember, this truly is a season, no matter what season you are in, infant, toddler, or teen, those kiddos are only this age once. You don’t want to miss out because you put so much pressure on yourself to be perfect, to do what you thought you had to do, and then didn’t enjoy the season with them. You don’t have to be the perfect mom, you just have to be the mom they need.

Hey Mama!
I know it can be hard, and most days you may feel defeated and less than the other moms you see around you. But you aren’t alone. And you don’t need to feel defeated. You did a magnificent job, no matter the mistakes you made, you did amazing!
I want to encourage you that no matter how this past year has gone, who you have in your life or don’t have in your life to tell you how amazing you are, you truly are amazing! God has called you to the life you are living. You can enjoy it and take things as they come, or you can let it bring you down, feel defeated, and let it discourage you and feel that mom guilt that you are not enough. But you are. You are enough.
Don't forget that this Mother's Day!

Hey Mama!
Do you have a way to recharge? Do you constantly feel depleted with no way to fill yourself up again? You give and give, when do you care for yourself? You have to take care of yourself if you are going to care properly for the ones you love.
Anxiety can rear its ugly head in many different ways. When you have a way to combat it and give yourself what you need, you will feel recharged in ways you never imagined!
Kari Davis talks to us about what she went through and how she found her self care routine to build the life she loves!

Hey Mama!
Has the thought ever crossed your mind…who am I? Who am I apart from the title mom? If we aren’t careful, being a mom will take over and we won’t know who we are anymore other than a mom.
Don’t get me wrong, being a mom is the best job in the whole world. I couldn’t imagine my life without my kiddos and would never go back to not having the title mom. But being a mom isn’t the ONLY job we are called to do. So who are you apart from being a mom? Do you know? What happens when your kids grow up and leave the house, what will you do? Do you know who you are without the kids around?
When we have kids living at home, our lives can tend to revolve around them, no matter their ages, but it doesn’t mean you should give up your dreams, passions, and hearts desires. God has put those in you for a reason. Let’s explore how to get that back!

Hey Mama!
How do you trust God when it seems like everything is crashing down around you? Managing your life is more than just time management. Time management helps you get everything done without feeling overwhelmed, but there is a lot more to managing your life in a way you can enjoy it through every season.
It can be hard to trust God when you look at everything surrounding you and it seems like there is no way out, there is no way around, and no way through. You are stuck and this is it. It’s difficult in those seasons. It’s easy to let our emotions take control and get sucked into the way things appear in the natural.
But remember, God is doing things behind the scenes you can’t see. Trust God through it all, no matter how difficult the situation and He will see you through! I’m bringing you 3 ways to trust God in the midst of the difficult season. It won’t always be easy, but it will be worth it!

Hey Mama!
Time management doesn’t mean being able to do ALL the things. Time management means being able to do all the IMPORTANT things well. Where are your priorities? Is your day in line with those priorities or is it off kilter a bit?
Some priorities will always stay the same, and others may shift from season to season, but knowing your priorities and when things need to shift is a crucial aspect of managing your time and day effectively. My priorities haven’t necessarily changed this week, but the time I spend in those priorities has changed drastically. Let’s dive into priorities, what they are, and how to adjust when seasons change.

Hey Mama!
The devil is a liar, a thief, and he is out for our family but we won't stand for it! We are standing on God's promises and know that HE has the final say!
The Bible says in John 10:10 that the devil is out to kill, steel, and destroy, but God has come to bring life and life more abundantly! We have been called to live an abundant life and that means over and above not just mediocre, and not with disease.
Listen to our recent journey as a second child in our family and our youngest was diagnosed with Type 1 Diabetes. He may have that diagnosis but we believe that God is our healer and what the Bible says is still true today! We could have gotten angry, defeated, let our heartbreak break us, but we decided long before this ever happened that in hard times we would cling to the hope that is Jesus Christ!

From overwhelmed with no time, to find rest and be a mindful mom - Get your JOY back!
Life is meant to be truly lived! Being a mindful mom means to be fully present in all those moments through the day. To actually LIVE in the moment, love your life (in every season). Your attitude will be peaceful, less yelling and frustration, you will live more intentional, and have time in the day to do what you love!
"Mindful: focusing one's awareness on the present moment." -Oxford Dictionary
