Our family LOVES books and no matter how old my kids get, I’m still going to break out all of the picture books and read to them. I am drawn to stories that spark imagination and have beautiful illustrations. Christmas books always seem to be on another level when it comes to those things. Every […]

I zoomed through Jodi Mocabee’s new book this last week and it.is.incredible. Wow. We need more truth and encouragement like this when it comes to raising our family. And not just trudging through, but thriving while doing it! I gleaned so much from this, related a lot, and already practice a lot of her advice too. I […]

I was skeptical of this one because I don’t typically jump on the bandwagon when it comes to books. But, it proved me wrong and kept my attention. I loved the story and time period it was set in. Kya’s character was so unique and I loved her grit for survival as well as compassion […]

I’ve been meaning to share this book I read and absolutely loved! A true story from the 50s about a woman who didn’t have much left, but saw an opportunity and rode with it. Literally. I love this grit story and highly recommend this read.  “In 1954, 63-year-old Maine farmer Annie Wilkins embarked on an […]

This was another book I picked up to read this month and I absolutely loved it! It wasn’t your typical “self help” book (which I’m not a fan of) but complete opposite.

I was thrilled when Lit League contacted me about becoming an affiliate and sharing their boxes with you all! As you know, we are book lovers. It’s my mission to raise readers and it’s a joy to see them get lost in books. These activity boxes take a story even deeper and are themed entirely […]

If there was ever a book that I needed for such a season as this one I’m in (other than the Bible, of course) it is what I’m holding. I don’t say this lightly but it truly changed my life and also took a lot of the thoughts and feelings I’ve been having for months, […]

I started this book last fall and then life happened. I picked it back up last weekend and literally couldn’t put it down, finishing it Wednesday evening. This is a book everyone should read and went along perfect as I’m in the middle of my mental toughness challenge. I’ve actually connected with Sarah a couple […]

I’ve always been a reader and when my oldest started to take interest, I was thrilled! One of Paisley and I’s favorite things to do is to curl up under a blanket and dive into a good book. It’s been fun re-reading some of my old favorites as well as the classics. Scout is starting […]
