Welcome to week#3 of the June 2019 “You’re the Star” Blog Hop! Before we continue onto the Linky party I wanted to share this post from my blog: Hope you are enjoying your summer. We are trying to, but have been experiencing a lot of rain. It has been fun to have a more flexible schedule. Posts…
My youngest child was born five years ago. It has been four years since I stopped cloth diapering. Once mine were able to walk I used disposable diapers because they kept them drier at night. All too well do I remember with my third child making the decision to move to cloth diapers. My husband…

Having someone else clean your home is a dream come true. As a homeschool mom I really wish that I could cast all my frugal money spending ways aside and hire a house cleaner. Truth is, I used to own my own housecleaning company. After many years, and several children later I retired that…
Recently my husband and I were cleaning out the garage and found the box marked “cloth diapers” I had saved them in case we needed them for any more babies. Since those were put into storage as a couple we decided that four children were enough for us. Hence, no more babies. As I stood…
Homeschool curriculum can be very expensive. Especially when you add in elective classes like Spanish and Art. I know because we just purchased our curriculum for next year. My husband and I always take a trip to the homeschool convention to buy curriculum because you can usually get a better price than when purchased via websites. Have More…
I have been teaching preschool to my four year old. Several different methods, ideas, and just introductory learning along the way. I try to keep him engaged, make learning fun, and come up with different ways to develop his skills. He is a very active little boy, as most little boys are. For today,…
For the past few weeks I have been writing about homeschooling boys. My posts have covered a set routine for breakfast, because boys are wiggly. They have covered what areas to work on to make them into responsible adults. Trust me…there is nothing easy about it, but I love it. Homeschooling boys is a journey…
Bored children can make mothers’ cringe, and to me that means constantly trying to entertain them. I put together this list of spring break fun to help any mother creating a bucket list for this break. We will have time each day for a fun, spring break activity, work/chores, and quiet time so that…

As a homeschool mom, I never saw myself becoming a frugal homemaker. Really. If you would have known me 25 years ago, the word frugal is now how you would have described me. But, I am now. People change, circumstances change, and we evolve. If we do not evolve into the person God leads us…
Welcome to week #3 of the June “You’re the Star” Blog Hop! This is one of my favorites months’. Where I live it doesn’t get too hot in June, except this summer. Our family has been busy with graduations, camping, swimming, going to the zoo, and taking tennis lessons. How about you? Link up…
Some may argue that it is not possible to pursue frugal living in the suburbs. Frugal living is not only for the country and farms, or people who seem to be extreme. Families can live frugal in the suburbs and still lead a fun life. I have lived in the suburbs all of my life,…
Home repairs can be costly. To say the least they are a major home expense. Remodeling or fixing a part of our home that is broken is not a matter of just going to the store to buy what we need. Our family does save in a lot other areas so that when we do…
Since I used to own my cleaning business, I needed to clean as many homes as I could in a small amount of time. I had to make a certain amount of money because I was a single mom. I could only work while my oldest son was in school. I was trying to grow…
