New Addition to the Family! 


About 2 months ago the husband and I came into agreement to purchase the children a DOG! 

 The kids had been asking for one for quite some time, specifically my oldest son who is 8yrs old. However, my husband didn't think it was such a great idea.  I personally loved the idea of having a cute little puppy running around the yard with the kids!  So, time went on, months and months passed on by and then one day IT HAPPENED... 

 My husband texted me from work and said "why am I thinking of buying the kids a dog!?" I jumped on the opportunity to encourage his decision, lol. He told me the children must be praying and asking God to change my heart concerning the matter. I thought that was hilarious and probably very true! We've always taught our children they can talk to God about anything on their little hearts.



Long story short, I found a lady on Facebook who was a breeder and selling a liter of adorable shih-tzu puppies ( I recommend highly researching the breeder you purchase from). I reached out to her regarding the sale and the rest is history! We took a one hour drive to Fenton, MI to pick up this adorable 9 week old black and white puppy! I was so excited I could hardly stand it! We kept it a surprise from the kids until we picked her up. All they knew was that we had a surprise for them and boy oh boy were they surprised when they caught the revelation that this was their very own puppy and they could take her home and keep her forever! 

The children named her Lily (so fitting) and we are just in love with her! She's a sweet little pup and we look forward to her growing up with us and our family. 

 Over the last couple of months Lily has grown from a tiny 2.5lbs to 4.5lbs!  She is now 4mths old and is showing her little personality! She can definitely be a feisty at times and soooo stubborn! But all and all she is still our little sweet pup. We are all learning how to adapt and coexist. It's a process i'm glad to be in it. Stay tuned for all the adorable updates and pics of our new family addition we call Lily!

Worried About Raising Children in THIS World?

-

With everything happening in the world these days it's easy to find yourself being worried about raising your children and them growing up in a world filled with so much hatred, violence and an evident lack of genuine love. The way we view the world now, as mothers, is probably much different than we have ever viewed the world around us.  Did anyone else view the world and things differently after becoming a mother? Now, instead of just you to think about you have a whole other life form (or in some cases multiple ones) to think about! I mean that's a tall order, you are responsible for another life! As if being responsible for your own wasn't difficult enough. You now have a new generation of other people to think about and that's deep. Then add on everything we have seen and experienced in the last year and the last few days going into the new year and well, my heart just crushes a  bit thinking about the future for our little ones. BUT.... When I cast my human flesh

Simple Strategies for Teaching Children to Manage Anger

Can we talk for just a moment about anger... It's on my heart and I'd like to have a real discussion about it. Not just anger in us as parents, but anger in our children. You see, I've come to realize that many adults are not aware of how to manage their anger, simply because they were never really taught how to when they were younger.  And so we have to vicious cycle of under managed and or mismanaged angry behaviors that just continue to repeat in us as adults and we pass it on to our children, and they pass it to their children and so on and so on.  Anger is a normal, healthy emotion. But many kids struggle to understand the difference between angry feelings and aggressive behavior. Frustration and anger can quickly turn into defiance, disrespect, aggression, and temper tantrums when kids don't know how to deal with their emotions. Often times when children are younger and they express a feeling of anger, we as the parent get upset ourselves at the little child  and
