Why is there a “parenting” category as well as a “mothering” category on this blog, you may ask?
To me, there is a beautiful distinction. I love to talk about parenting as the tool to raise the next generation.
Using our own unique talents to infiltrate goodness into our children.
To prepare them to be contributors in the world that needs their light.
My motherhood posts, on the other hand, concentrate on ideas to wrap our children
with the love and encouragement that mothers are born to give.
That innate nurturing power from a mother’s heart.

As mothers, we have the sacred responsibility to “teach souls to fly.”
And I can’t think of anything luckier than
cradling human souls in our arms.
Opening the world for their goodness.

I’m just wondering…is it bad to let your daughter wear Crocs to church? And does it make it better or worse if they’re paired with mis-matched socks because every other…
Claire’s friend got an award at school a while ago. It was a big deal. I could hear the envy in Claire’s voice as she told me all about it…
I find it so interesting how Lucy can seem to get across exactly what she wants even when she can’t say much. Things like how she has to listen to…
I just had to record today…not because I’m whining about it, but because I have to write this stuff down so when I’m old won’t think I’m nuts that I…
