Forgiveness... granting it is liberation, withholding it--bondage. Asking for forgiveness is not weakness, but strength. There is such a paradox in the Christian life, but not just for the Christian, for all of humanity. Through the emptying of self, we can be the most filled and fulfilled.

Homeschooling: Elementary Math
For those who don't already know, we are a homeschooling family. It's been a growing process and we've learned a LOT through trial and error. My philosophy on how a child learns best has changed and developed over the years and through it all we have become unschoolers.

Treehouse Daily: An Interview with Tiny Living Mom, Amanda
We've been in contact now somewhere around a year (if my memory serves me right) and watching her adventures through her Instagram feed and her blog has been amazing! She allowed me to interview her about her switch from conventional living to tiny living as her family moved into a renovated Airstream! Read on and be inspired!

Update on My Sewing Desk!
So, I've had my desk for just under four months now and let me tell you... I am still totally loving it! It was easy to build (I did it completely by myself--no help from my husband, just from baby Paul).
Check out my Instagram stories to see videos as I built it!

Organic Beauty and Care - Comprehensive List
I get a lot of questions about our bath and body regimens. For years our family has not used things with synthetic preservatives, artificial colors, fluoride, and artificial sweeteners. Avoiding these things was really challenging in the years past. We had to make a lot of our own goods. Though some of our homemade products were great, others fell short of our expectations.

Delicious Slow-cooker Vegan Chili
I love making chili! It's so easy, so delicious, and helps me rid my fridge of veggies I need to use up! Win-win-win! Plus, it's a great meal to put together when Monday hits and the world seems to be filled with chaos!

Paul's Summer/Fall Capsule Wardrobe
Capsule wardrobes are a bit of an obsession. Because of my minimalist and sustainable attitude toward fashion, I have been de-facto wearing a capsule wardrobe for years, but only recently did I vow to do the same for my kids.
