You can tell that you are so in your element doing what you're doing, it's awesome to see! Ohh and I like what you did with those apple skins, did you bake them!?!

My spaghetti sauce is random every time I make it. I did not measure or keep track of anything. So sorry! Wish I had!!! And those are just dehydrated peach skins. Easy peasy. Check "recipes" for the applesauce recipe - and I'm sorry about the pasta sauce deal! Maybe next time I make it I'll make a recipe card for ya'll!!

Being a SAHM isn't the "way" for every family - but it is beautiful that you have such an appreciation for it! And the love for your family exudes from your comment here!!! <br /><br />I agree, it's hard to "imagine life with kids" until it is happening! Every family (all the different temperment combos!) is so unique. <br /><br />So happy you stopped by and shared your heart!!!

It's amazing how little mothers are appreciated for being a stay at home parent. I know some SAHM who have received comments like "What do you DO all day??" Umm...they take care of their children. People without children really cannot wrap their head around how much work they are, myself included until I had my own. It's a selfless job that's not appreciated enough in our society. I mean, women worked so hard for workplace equality, why on earth would you go backwards and take on a more traditional role? Well, because as thankless as it is, it's your time spent shaping little people who are going to go off and affect the world in their own way and if you, as a mom, can make that affection positive then (I think) you're doing a whole world of good.<br /><br />Good for you for being a stay at home mom and loving every single moment of it. I find your words to be so inspirational and moving. Thank you for that :) Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3727103479255164461.post-53608552210894866902013-08-30T12:01:25.493-05:002013-08-30T12:01:25.493-05:00oh Jess - the negativity surrounding motherhood th...oh Jess - the negativity surrounding motherhood these days is dark and powerful. i just think that if God is calling someone into that vocation, then it's going to be great (even in the hardest moments) because that is His will for your life... your path to heaven! I AM so thankful. And I "try" really hard to love "every" minute! But sometimes... ya know?! Like... today when my 3 year old screamed the entire way into the house from the car! My neighbors were peeping through their blinds. I'm sure! Embarrassing. Humbling. Exhausting... "trying" to love moments like those too! Just keeping it real!<br /><br />Thank you for your sweet compliments :-) I'm sure you'd make a great momma!!!!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10771660422142873021noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3727103479255164461.post-32011902313987112582013-08-30T11:57:44.172-05:002013-08-30T11:57:44.172-05:00join the "crazy" club... the CRAZY AWESO...join the "crazy" club... the CRAZY AWESOME club, wiscomom!!! so beautiful that you've found and are at peace with God's call for your life! keep up the good work, momma!!! and bless your family!!!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10771660422142873021noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3727103479255164461.post-77228910461553479582013-08-30T11:56:13.195-05:002013-08-30T11:56:13.195-05:00hey my mom stayed home and homeschooled me and my ...hey my mom stayed home and homeschooled me and my sibs too! i hope God answers the desires of your heart and allows you to follow in your momma's footsteps! -Psalm 37:4- Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10771660422142873021noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3727103479255164461.post-52068676610822344772013-08-30T11:55:45.486-05:002013-08-30T11:55:45.486-05:00I just love your heart for your family!
