PARENTing

hello!

Welcome to my parenting page. You will find articles on parenting, faith, books, motherhood, and many other topics.  My inspiration and knowledge comes from reading parenting books, blogs, articles, and listening to educational, parenting,  and christian podcasts. My  greatest source of wisdom and knowledge comes from my daily walk with God and from reading his word. Of course, my own experiences raising three kids under 8 is where my personal stories and parenting strategies  come from. I share things that have worked or that I use in my day to day interactions, and I hope that you will find them useful and be encouraged in your parenting journey. 

To search for a specific topic, you can use the search feature in the right corner. Is there a topic you do not find and would like me to cover? Click the contact form to send me a request. For Faith-based resources, you can head to the Christian Living page, where I share books, podcasts, and faith-based articles.
