Pick-up sticks, jackstones, hopscotch (piko), Tex cards…favorite childhood games to play with your kids that will create wonderful family memories that can last a lifetime; natural conversation starters about our growing up years that encourage an exchange of meaningful stories and shared experiences.
As a wife, mom, reluctant homeschool teacher, defacto interior designer, handywoman, “all-around maker of all things” (or so my 7-year-old daughter thinks), time is precious. I totally get it. As a mom of 3 kids, subconsciously stockpiling these precious time-saving tidbits along the way gave way to Simple Not Simple—a busy woman’s survival guide of useful shortcuts, inspiring Christian lessons, easy style how-to segments, wife/mom insights, DIY hacks, informative in-depth pieces with bits of the joyous nostalgic 80s sprinkled throughout (hey, why not?).
I hope you’ll stay awhile. Take a well-deserved breather on a comfy couch and browse, muse, hopefully take away a helpful nugget (or two) that will make your life a little bit easier as you dive right back into the world of kids, jobs, homeschool, household chores, laundry, and grocery-runs. (I know, I need to pick up a few things too!).
Let this be a shot of faith-filled, fun-filled caffeine for your soul. A quick pick-me-up. An escape (squeezed in between prepping the family’s next meal and doing the laundry) to get you through the repetitive, the complicated, the breakneck bullet train of the not-so-simple life we’re on.
Welcome to Simple Not Simple.
We’re in this together,
