Help for the best and hardest job in the world…



As adults, we’re pretty awesome at a lot of things.
We tackle big challenges in our careers, our finances, and our health. We build impressive things. We write legal documents. We manage teams and conferences and estates and classrooms.
But when it comes to parenting, we often feel surprisingly unsure whether we know what we’re doing at all.
We love these kids of ours with a love so fierce and strong, and yet, half the time we shake our heads and wonder if we’re getting it all wrong and why this parenting gig is so darn hard???
Raising these hilarious, amazing, wild little humans of ours is both tough and tremendous, precious and perplexing, all at the same time.
In fact, I don’t know about you, but it’s not uncommon for me to feel totally conflicting things at any given moment:
Looking forward to a quiet empty nest, while wishing I could just freeze time and keep my children exactly as they are in this moment.
Desperately longing for some peace and quiet, while loving the chaos and life surrounding me.
Wishing everyone would stop saying, “Mom! Mom! Mom!” even as I’m craving conversation with these fascinating little people of mine.
No matter what your day has been like…
…whether you locked yourself in the bathroom to cry after you blew up at your kids.
…or if “Mama needs some alone time” evolved into hiding in the pantry and inhaling a bag of dark chocolate chips.
…or your budding artist decided today was the day to create a mural on the living room wall with your colored Sharpies…
There’s one thing you already know.
Sometimes parenting is awesome. And sometimes it’s not.
You’ll take the not-so-awesome parts along with the beautiful parts. Because it’s so worth it.
But if you could find resources to help make it a little more awesome and a lot less hard?
It’d be a no-brainer!
Well, look no further, because I found something that might be just what you need: The Parenting Super Bundle.

For six days only, you can get your hands on a package full of resources to help you rock this parenting gig even more, for the most affordable price ever. (Seriously, just wait until I tell you the price.)
This brand-new bundle includes 35 ebooks, 10 eCourses, 23 printables, 9 workbooks, 2 audios, and 1 membership site.
These top-quality resources cover everythingyou need to make parenting feel less stressful (and more fun!)… chore charts, discipline methods and ideas, strategies for tough challenges (for kids and for parents), printable craft ideas, homeschooling helps, and so much more.
For less than the cost of a gallon of paint to touch up your little Picasso’s mural, you’ll get a complete library to help you:




  • Apply step-by-step solutions to common challenges like whining, arguing, homework, and lack of cooperation
  • Build stronger relationships with your kids (even your teens)
  • Stop playing referee in sibling battles (and teach them how to work things out)
  • Instill gratitude, kindness, and helpfulness in your child
  • Become a kinder, more intentional parent
  • and feel encouraged and inspired in your parenting.

  • Plus, it comes with over $100 worth of bonus offers from companies you’ll love (this is one of my favorite parts).
    You sort of need to see it to believe it, but the package includes 80 digital products and it’s worth over $1270!
    Besides being so incredibly helpful, one of the things I like best about the bundle is the price. By offering it for a short time only, they’re able to give you access to over $1270 worth of amazing products for a whopping 98% off!

    Here’s how it works:
    1. Visit their website, take a quick look at all the goodness that comes in this package, then click the “Get my copy now!” button to go through their simple and secure 3-step checkout process.
    2. You’ll receive an email with a login to their online access portal, where you’ll begin downloading your eBooks, signing up for your eCourses, and redeeming your free bonus offers.
    3. Use their Getting Started Guide to pick the topic you want to tackle first and give you joy in your parenting journey!
    The most important detail, though, is that this bundle is available for just six days!
    After Monday night, August 14th, the sale ends and you’d have to buy all of these products individually.
    I’d hate for you to miss out, so click HERE (https://us154.isrefer.com/go/PARSB2017/a3732/) to learn more or buy the bundle.
    It’s even backed by a 100% happiness guarantee, so you can make sure it’s right for you.
    As you already know, parenting is amazing and difficult. Enjoying it even on the craziest of days is not impossible.

    You don’t need to be a perfect parent to raise great kids, but if you (like me) could use a little help, learn more or get your bundle HERE
    (Psst… the bundle goes away at 11:59 pm Eastern on Monday, August 14th, so don’t wait!)

    I is for Inspiring... #atozchallenge

    How Inspiring to others are you?

    As a homeschooling mom that may or may not be a difficult question to answer. You are more inspiring than you think. I once thought that there was nothing inspirational about my life, as a young woman I will admit that my self esteem was low and I thought more of what others thought about me instead. Growing in Christ has helped me to overcome thru many trials and tribulations. Having a strong faith has kept me well planted in Gods word when times have been rough or almost impossible for me to bear. He has taught me that there is nothing I can not do without Him by my side. As the Bible promises, He will not put more on you than you can bear without his help.

    Inspiring others is one thing I have learned to do with Gods help, he leads me to those he feels need a smile, that special touch of a nurses hand, or an inspiring blog post here or my other blogs. There is not a weekend that goes by that I don't work my busy weekender shift in the ER and someone comes across my path I know God has put there. It might be a patient that needs to talk or a family member who is scared.

    How can you inspire others? First ask for God's guidance, pray about it. He will lead your path.

    You are already inspiring your family, being a parent is an inspiration itself. Smile at others you meet, you never know what another person's walk is in life. Do what you do best, whether it be cooking, writing, crafting or talking, use those tools you have to help and inspire others.

    Be an inspiration and pass it on, be contagious ....

    Enjoy these Inspiring and Lifting Words! I love these.

    Have a fabulous day!

    D is for Diva ~~ #atozchallenge

    D is for Diva? how can homeschooling have anything to do with Diva's. Well you see my youngest pupil would be by 9 year old makeup diva. Everything revolves around makeup most days. Even though she is a girly girl she likes video games, Twilight, vampires, Minecraft and other typical pre-teen things. Teaching her has been a challenge for this homeschooling momma. We are still working on reading and I have had to be a little creative to keep her interested. We came up with the Diva Alphabet, to relate all things makeup/ beauty and girly with the letters A - Z if we could. 



    I will attempt to share it with you here:

    A : Applicators (like for makeup) or Avon
    B: Base or BB cream
    C: Cover Girl or Concealer
    D: Diamonds --a girls best friend
    E: Estee Lauder
    F: Foundation
    G: Glitter
    H: Hairspray
    I: iPhone
    J: Juicy Couture
    K: Kabuki brush 
    L: Lancome'
    M: MAC makeup of course (her favorite brand) 
    N: NARS 
    O: OPI nail polish
    P: Philosophy 
    Q: Queen
    R: Revlon
    S: Sephora 
    T: Target or TNT 
    U: Ulta or Urban Decay 
    V: Victoria's Secret 
    W: Walmart ( has cheaper makeup)
    X: XBox (we can watch YouTube videos about makeup on the XboX)
    Y: YouTube (favorite makeup video spot) 
    Z:  Z Palette  


    My Diva! a total girly girl 

     Her massive lip balm collection- we practice our reading with the labels  
    For math one day we counted the lip balms in sets of 10, she had 130 total!!

    The Plague - Germ Warfare

     

    Help! Our household is a war zone, the plague is back and has manifested itself in the throat of a 9 year old child. It does not speak.......yet it has a message.... Laden in mucus.

    I fear that it is after me.....I hide hoping that the micronutrients and vitamin C that pulses thru my blood will fight the nasty war for me.

    The infected child follows me, hugs me, is possessed by this viral creature. She refuses to leave me alone if she is not entranced in the deep sleep. I want to push her away, lock her in the viral containment closet, but the power of motherly love is way to strong.

    I must embrace this zombish monster and fight my battles, one Kleenex at a time......sniff......sniff.
