Praises of a Wife and Mommy

Happy first day if school!  2018-2019 Summer went fast and emotional hit hard once August hit.  It’s like I hit a little depression thinking about going back to work and the kids going back to school.   Yes, I am not like the other moms who are ready to send their kids back to their teachers.  I would rather keep them home with me and we could have more and more fun and memories.   I know, your all probably wondering why we don’t just homeschool.   The truth is we rely on my insurance and income.  The other thing we truly believe in is having our kids go make a difference in their schools.   They bring Jesus with them where ever they go.

Every parent is excited when they’re about to have a child. Then the little ones arrive, and we can’t wait to see them all grown up and out of the house, only for us to shed tears when it’s time for college. Throughout the lives of our children, we teach them to do things independently. It may be from the simplest things such as tying their shoes or more complex duties like teaching them how to use the coffee machine for the first time. We do all this because we want them to mature into happy, independent individuals; the truth is, we won't be able to guide them always. Instilling habits in children transcends beyond teaching them to use cutlery; it also involves teaching them the right practices that can aid with a healthier or more productive life. Healthy eating habits are best learned as a child; thus, this article seeks to take you through some tips to help you start your children on the excellent meal train.

British Soccer Camp WEEK!!! Titus got to work on his soccer skills last week!   He is showing us so much talent!   He worked on passing a lot but he loves to dribble the ball himself.   Titus got to meet four coaches that week.   2 were from England, 1 from London, and 1 from Brazil!    The first day he was very timid and didn't want me to leave. I think it may have been due to heavy accents and Titus was confused at what the directions were.   By the end of the week, he was understanding much better.   It is amazing how challenging it can be when we live in a diverse world.   Titus continued to have fun throughout the week.   I did notice a couple things they could improve on.  First, the ages groups could probably be divided a little bit more.  I think they could have used a few more helpers as well because it was hard to have a coach available for each game when there were more games then coaches available.  Those two things are hard to do.   I real

If you haven't read my first two posts on Raw Nibs make sure you do here: Post 1 Post 2 We have used the Raw Nibs for the last month.  Every afternoon Kiah has had a 1/2 cup on top of her food.   She still is continuing to eat the Raw Nibs first!   She won't go back to her food until she is really hungry.    Kiah, as you see above, was begging and begging for more Raw Nibs.   She sure has been trying to communicate and let us know she wants more.    I think I like knowing that this is a quality product for my dog.   I really trust chewy.com and the products they sell!
