Happy Easter! As a special treat here is a bonus episode about celebrating Easter. It can be tricky to explain why Jesus had to die on a cross, or the events that lead up to His crucifixion. Especially to young kids that are still sensitive to violence and death. The events that lead to Jesus's death, His crucifixion, and His death on a cross are so important! We want out kids to know the truth behind why we celebrate Easter (no, it isn't just about the bunny and the candy!). In this episode we explore teaching your kids the real reason we celebrate Easter, keeping or changing up Easter traditions, and encouraging your kids to be other focused. Enjoy!
I pray this blesses you!

This is the second part of an interview with Sally Byrd, my mother in law and an amazing Christian author! Please go back and listen to episode 25 if you missed it. We had such an amazing conversation about Sally's new book coming out, Beck and the Ugly Princess. Sally has a unique niche of writing Christian fantasy books. As busy moms sometimes it is hard to fit in reading with your kids. In this interview we discuss ways that both Sally and I have encouraged our kids to love reading. We hope you will be able to pick up some fun tricks to encourage your little readers. Enjoy!
I pray this blesses you!

In this episode you will get to meet Sally Byrd, my mother in law and amazing Christian author! She has a unique niche of writing Christian fantasy books. Influenced by C.S. Lewis and J.R. Tolkien, the books are similar to the Narnia Series. We will be talking about her most recent book, Benk and the Ugly Princess, and the other books in the series. Sally followed her dreams of writing Christian fantasy books, even as a busy mom with three young kids. Even as busy moms we need to create space to follow our dreams and hobbies. To do things that light us up. God may not give us the opportunity to pursue these dreams to their fullest in our current season, but if God placed these dreams in your heart He will bring them to fruition.
I pray this blesses you!

Teaching kids about money and chores and allowance and saving and giving and all that jazz can be overwhelming. Right? How much do you give for allowance? When do you start all this? What chores do they do? How does it evolve as the kids grow up? What if my kid spends whatever they get? Here are some tips that have helped our family navigate allowance, extra money, savings, spending, and giving. We will talk about some easy steps in setting up allowance, and why we have decided to structure it this way for our family. Ultimately, all of our possessions are a gift from God to use as He sees fit. We want to train our kids to use their money wisely, and have an attitude of gratitude.
I pray this blesses you!

Crazy right? Has it really been a year since work, schools, and EVERYTHING closed? A year, since we hunted down toilet paper and hand sanitizer. Since we wiped down every surface with disinfectant. Now is the time to reflect on this crazy year and this crazy season. In this episode we go through reflecting on what challenges we have faced. Reflecting about things that did not serve us mentally, physically, or emotionally that we would rather leave in this season. Reflecting on the positive of what has been a blessing in this season and what habits we would like to keep. We also explore and touch on our posture as Christians during the pandemic. Grab your notebook, pen, and some strong coffee!
I pray this blesses you!
