I’ve been married to my high school sweetheart since 2003. Together, we have four amazing children, by birth and adoption. When I am not homeschooling my favorite students, I spend my days on our 7-acre property where I try my best to love my family well and experiment with hobby homesteading.

I believe God has tasked us to be good stewards of our spaces in the world, and I guide my children to do the same.

Chickens don’t need a lot of intervention and especially don’t need heat lamps, but a few actions make the winter...
Confession: It’s been a year since I got my hair cut. Cus #covid and #life. And it’s the longest my hair has ever been in all my forty years. I’ve always admired longer hair on other women, but never felt like I could pull it off because I was just not blessed with thick hair....
Did you know that the d-limonene constituent found in many citrus fruits has an acid neutralizing quality? I know it seems counter-intuitive that fruits like lemon and lime can actually offer relief from stomach upset, but it’s completely true! And it’s one of the reasons why I never leave home without a few packets of...
