I Love a Small Town

I love a small town where I can make 5 stops in less than an hour.  With 3 kids in tow. A town where I can cash a handful of checks at the bank, even if one of them didn't exactly have my name on it. A town where I can send 2/3 of my kids into a storefront alone, without any hesitation or worry ...

Satisfying the Sweet Tooth: Local Honey

This little girl of mine has a definite sweet tooth. There is no doubt she got it from her mama.  oops!  While I don't mind enjoying a treat now and then, and believe me I do, I realize how important it is to fill our bodies with real food.  She and I both like the sweetness of pitted dates, but ...

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!
