A Letter to my Children… & You

Written for my children, for when they are older and will understand it more.  But maybe you {my dear readers} could use this right now, too? I know I would benefit from these words being spoken to me daily. My Dear Children, I pray you are clinging tightly to Jesus.  Be ready. Be ready for ...

Home Organization: A New Bookshelf

Oh, Happy Day!  Mr. Awesome & the kids assembled this bookshelf for me while I was at a movie with friends this week. He ROCKS for doing this! I love seeing the big kids reading. Today we are compiling the stacks of books from around the house onto this ONE bookshelf.  I'm keeping my ...

Yes, No, Well Maybe?

I've been struggling with this verse  I bookmarked on my Bible App awhile back.  It was about your Yes being Yes and your NO being No.  I went to look it up on the computer to be sure I had the right wording before processing it and found another very similar verse, but it still didn't make me feel ...

On Mother’s Day

Hey, can we talk?  I know it's Mother's Day. How are you feeling about that? Be honest. I hope no matter what your answer comes out like, I pray you are content. I know that may not be the case though. Being a mom looks different to each of us.  Some of us came by it young, others later in life.  ...

Intentional Parenting

Let’s talk about being intentional in our parenting. Although many great things do happen spontaneously, I believe that even greater things can happen when we are joyfully being intentional. What are you doing to intentionally spend time with your kiddos?  I’ll go first. Well for starters, we are ...

These Are a Few of My Favorite Things

A morning walk with my blessings. A bouquet of dandelions. Hanging clothes to dry by His gentle breeze. A no-frills lunch with a beautiful friend in my favorite hometown. A shopping trip strictly for the purpose of planting a surprise blessing on someone else. Words with friends. Dinner, ...

Hey Friend! I am truly so glad that you’re here today!

At A Slightly Better Wife, I share about faith, homemaking, homeschooling, and marriage—along with my passion for creating a non-toxic, intentional home. Life isn’t about perfection, but I believe in making small, meaningful choices each day to do things slightly better than before.

My love for simple living and homemaking was deeply shaped by my grandparents. I have the best childhood memories of being in the kitchen with my Grandma Edna, learning the beauty of home-cooked meals and a well-tended home. My Grandpa Link’s storytelling and wisdom instilled in me the value of faith, family, and slowing down to listen during the little moments that make life rich. Their influence is woven into who I am today and I’m so grateful for that.

I’m a wife, a momma of 5, and a homemaker at heart. My husband and I met young, just days after my 18th birthday, and we quickly (like within a week) knew that forever was in our plans.

Together, we built our home on the edge of town, where we’re raising and homeschooling our children while embracing a simple, purposeful life in the city.

Here, you’ll find encouragement for your marriage, practical tips for homemaking, and inspiration to cultivate a home filled with faith and love. Whether you’re looking for a recipe, a fresh perspective, or just a place to feel understood, I hope you’ll stay awhile and explore.

Let’s pursue slightly better together!
