Hi, friend! I am so glad you have stopped by my little corner of the internet. I hope you’ll take some time to look around and join our wonderful community of moms here as we learn to be better moms together!
Has your child ever been in a medical crises? For most of us, we will experience the awful feeling of worry and rush to the ER at least once with our little ones, but how we choose to respond there can make all the difference to the hearts of our family members as well as our own! Are you ready to respond well?
A couple years back I wrote a post right here on The Better Mom about my struggle with anger. It was a very popular post and I received many emails from moms, and even some dads, who struggled with this very issue. I knew the topic resonated with many and I knew I needed to speak about my own struggle. In that post I shared several things you can do to help you win the battle against anger. One of the tips I shared was to take a time out!
St. Patrick's Day is just around the corner. Here are a few ideas for you and your kids to do to celebrate this fun holiday!
Happy Tuesday!!
You guys! I am SO so so excited to invite you all to join me for the 30 Days Pressing Pause Challenge!
Oh, oh, oh, it is soooo close. The smell of Spring is in the air, and I can hardly wait! The piles of snow, sidewalks and streets riddled with salt, and bone-chilling bursts of the wind that take up a typical winter will be long gone. As we enter a new season, it is a time for us to continue some and create all new traditions in our homes.
Traditions are important.
With the boy it was a wet towel on his bedroom floor, growing a smelly mildew into the carpet all day. With the girl it was the look she made sometimes when I asked her to help with dinner.
Stinkin’ kids.
It was easy to rest in my aggravation, but the more helpful thing to do was to switch hats.
Time to be the teacher.
