Happy Easter 2020

When I think of what I thought Easter 2020 would look like, I never imagined it would involve dragging the dining room table and chairs into the living room so we could live stream our church worship service over the big screen while eating breakfast off our regular dishes and drinking out of water ...

I could’ve broken down and cried at the store…

I could've broken down and cried at the store on Wednesday. Not for myself, as much for the lack of compassion and empathy in the world today.Don't worry, on account of my disappointment and anger I held it in until much later in the day before the flood gates opened wide and I wept in the shower ...

Do I Really Need a Bathmat, Anyway?

Years ago my husband and I heard about a Bible study being offered through our church based on the movie Fireproof. As a woman who had a fierce childhood crush on Kirk Cameron, star of growing pains, I signed us right up.We were young, I think we’d been married less than two years. We had two ...

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!
