We often talk about how quickly children grow and change. We measure their height with pencil marks on a doorframe. We chart their first years of life in a baby book or on calendars. We note accomplishments and scrapbook their successes. But how often do we journal our own growth, effort, accomplishments, and successes as… read more »
For anyone who has followed me for more than a year, you’ve likely read stories of my family’s, ahem, restroom experiences… It’s not that I like to brag. It’s not that I EVER thought I would publish anything on the world-wide-web related to restrooms. It’s not that I don’t have anything else to talk about. … read more »
Yep – Little Man had his official “Two Month” checkup – and he’s growing so well! He gained 8 oz and grew 1/2 an inch in 6 days time (from his sick visit last week to his well visit this week!) Whew! He is definitely NOT having any growth delays anymore – and is developing… read more »
III John 1:4 – I have no greater joy than to hear that my children walk in truth. As my “normal” brain has returned since Little Man was born, I’ve slowly been made aware of my IMMENSE need for God in my life. In every day. In every hour. In every moment. Listening to audio… read more »
Since my in-laws were able to help get our bedrooms rearranged a couple of weekends ago, and the nursery is now getting set up – even though I’ve done this twice before – I wanted to ask for your input regarding those items that YOU found to be necessary for your baby and his/her nursery…. read more »
Having experienced several very-challenging, difficult days as a mother in the past few weeks, I find myself up late – in a quiet house.

Oh it was a BIG day! Curly’s first day of Kindergarten. We all walked her into her classroom, found her desk and she sat right down. It was a bit hectic in the room, as you can imagine, and she just sat right down in a new class full of faces she doesn’t know yet. … read more »
I’ve been wondering how to approach this topic because it is not an easy subject to write about. I read this article at ehomebody.com, and after reading my friend Amy’s post about her son Ian, thought I should write about my experience with a “difficult” child. Curly has always been our easy-going, happy child. She… read more »
I decided, after looking through the Polished Cornerstones – Projects for Daughters on the Path to Womanhood from Doorposts, to start simply with my girls. Georgie will be 3 in just a few weeks, and Curly will be 5 a few weeks later. I am brushing up on A Godly Woman, and specifically focusing on… read more »
This is a modified repost of a previous popular post here at the Queen Mommys Cafe: Our girls, Curly & Georgie, are 4 and 2. Curly just graduated from Christian PreK right and loved it. Both girls are social butterflies (big surprise, right?) and both are very bright – when I can get their attention… read more »
