She is a stay-at-home mom. She has discovered the ability to schedule and organize while she homeschools her children; her home is beautiful, and her life seems so calm. She teaches Sunday school, makes her own bread, and even finds time to exercise daily. Next door is a mom working outside of the home, while educating her [...]

Every year that October 12 arrives, we celebrate the birthday of our daughter. Our little girl. Our baby. She is 22 years old this year. In Heaven. I have seven daughters and three sons here on this earth to hold and to love. I know what my daughter, Elisabeth would look like now. Just like [...]

Hi, I'm September and Welcome to a Day in my life! I am a child of the Most High King! He reigns first in my heart. I have been married for 23 years to the man that protects my heart, and seek guidance daily as I raise 10 children for my Lord. I homeschool, plant seeds daily, memorize His promises and push aside my mistakes, letting go and letting God.
