My name is Holly. I'm married to an amazing man named James (we got married January 9th, 2009) and I'm a mom to a beautiful baby boy named Aiven (born June 23rd, 2011).
When my son was born I became a stay-at-home mom. This blog is my way to document and reflect on our life so that the years don't just pass us by. It's also a way to share with others the things that I discover or care about!
I'll probably write about anything I find worth sharing, but mostly it'll be about being a mom, a wife, my kid, spirituality, recipes/food, health/fitness, our home, DIY projects, and probably some random things too!
"Homemaking—being a full-time wife and mother—is not a destructive drought of usefulness but an overflowing oasis of opportunity; it is not a dreary cell to contain one’s talents and skills but a brilliant catalyst to channel creativity and energies into meaningful work; it is not a rope for binding one’s productivity in the marketplace, but reins for guiding one’s posterity in the home; it is not oppressive restraint of intellectual prowess for the community, but a release of wise instruction to your own household; it is not the bitter assignment of inferiority to your person, but the bright assurance of the ingenuity of God’s plan for the complementarity of the sexes, especially as worked out in God’s plan for marriage; it is neither limitation of gifts available nor stinginess in distributing the benefits of those gifts, but rather the multiplication of a mother’s legacy to the generations to come and the generous bestowal of all God meant a mother to give to those He entrusted to her care.”
