What I Heard Wednesday: 8-21-13

So I’m telling the boy as we’re creating a mini book that he needs to cut very carefully on the lines.  His response to me in his laid back, ‘I’m so cool’ voice:  “Yeah, so I can sell this thing to uncle Jeremy”.
Yes son, those were my thoughts exactly!  Uncle Jeremy would love to have a mini book all about Jack, who has a pack on his back that says QUACK!

The highlight of my day was when my oldest daughter came running up the stairs first thing in the morning and asked if she could start her math!  Isn’t that just music to a momma’s ears?  Lovely!  She is such a great independent worker and I really appreciate her having a genuine love of learning.  She is such a joy to be around and just radiates kindness wherever she goes.  Love that girl!

School took a little longer today as we added in a few more subjects than we did yesterday.  Truth be told, I didn’t want to start school until after Labor day.  But, I have eager learners, and there’s no way I’m telling them to hold off on that sort of excitement.

I have been working on laundry all day.  Literally, the whole day.  I even decided to be an overachiever and change the sheets on our beds.  The baby just had her sheets changed so I did everyone else’s while she was napping.
Long story short, I went in to get her from her nap and her sheet was soaked.. and there sat her dry diaper that I got out, but forgot to put on her!  Hey look on the bright side though, now EVERYONE’S sheets have been washed on the same day.

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!
