5 Ways to Introduce Your Toddler to Jesus
5 Ways to Introduce Your Toddler to Jesus

So… are we going today? I asked my husband every Sunday morning, knowing neither of us wanted to show up at church. We always left the decision to the last minute, and sleeping in usually won. Church didn’t feel like a priority.

But when I was pregnant with my daughter, everything changed.

I imagined the life I wanted for our kids, and I knew I wanted God to be a part of it. There was no longer room to be passive about my faith I was going to be responsible for discipling another person.

I learned more in my first few months as a mom than in my whole life before that. I also had dozens of new topics to binge audiobooks on including breastfeeding, baby sleep and more.

As I read and learned more about motherhood, I realized I don't want to get so focused on the tangible everyday needs that I forget to care for our souls. I want to be constantly learning how to be a godly wife and mother. I want to be continually pointing my kids back to God and modelling what it looks like to depend on Him and walk closely with Him.

Life seems to be constantly changing, and do my Bible-reading routines. It looked different when pregnant with my first, as a new mom, with two-under-two and now with a toddler and baby in my care. Sometimes, I miss those days of unstructured quiet time where each precious second of quiet didn’t feel quite so urgent.

The busier life gets, the harder it feels to prioritize reading the Bible in rare moments when both my kids are occupied. If I have a moment to sit, or I could be working on a household task, choosing the Bible feels hard and unproductive.

In this post, I’m sharing 5 ways to entertain your toddler as you try to grab a few moments in God’s word.

Pregnancy & Birth

My life changed when I learned birth can be peaceful and positive. I quickly went from “ew, I’m never doing that” to “I have to try this!” and the door was opened to the greatest blessing of my life.

I now share my experience with motherhood, pregnancy and birth because I want you to know it’s possible to enjoy these experiences.

7 Reasons to Choose Homebirth
7 Reasons to Choose Homebirth

“What made you decide to have a homebirth?” people often ask.

The question makes me chuckle because I always wonder the opposite. Why do people choose to leave their homes and go to an unfamiliar environment for one of the most vulnerable and impactful moments of their lives?

The question surprises me now, but just a few years ago, I would have been the one asking it.

Our SURPRISE Third Pregnancy
Our SURPRISE Third Pregnancy

I swore when I saw the positive test. Our third pregnancy came as quite a shock and put us on track to have three under three this summer. It took me a few days to get over the initial shock and thoughts of “How are we going to handle three under three?!” Before I started telling my husband how much fun it is that we get to experience a surprise pregnancy and have a small age gap again.

Am I the only one who wonders HOW unplanned pregnancies happen? After several years of successfully using natural family planning, I thought I was invincible. But I’m sharing ALL the details!
