Just doing her part to ensure we have 17 more babies. 🤗😅 Happy Friday Friends! 💛 xx . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . #flashesofdelight #motherhoodthroughmylens #igmotherhood #pixelkids #vintagestyle #kidsstyle #summerstyles #thepersuitofjoyproject #smilepretty #darlingdaily #livelifegappy #family #lds #imamormon #sharegoodness #ldsfamily #mamabird #thatsdarlingmovement #darlingdaily #darlingmoment #homeschool #wildandfreehomeschool #joyinthejourney My Pearly Sue in her favorite spot. ☺️ I had so much fun connecting with you on our live last night! A lot of the questions I received (and didn’t get to touch on a whole lot) had to do with homeschooling and I’m so happy that so many of you are interested in learning more. It’s something I am deeply passionate about and would love to share more with you if you’re interested in hearing? Yes? No? Maybe..? 😬😂 I want to put together a blog post all about the what’s/where’s/why’s of our journey with homeschooling but want to make sure I answer all your questions too! So if there’s anything at all you’ve been wondering about it, here’s your chance! 🤗 Would you like me to share more about homeschooling here? Is it something you’ve ever considered? Or are you like 🙅🏼‍♀️ 😝 at the thought of it? 😂 I want to hear it all! ‘Cause that girl... ☝🏻 used to be me. 💁🏼‍♀️ swore I’d never do it. And here we are in our fifth year and I’ve truly loved it so much. So tell me- what would you like to know? (Or not) 😂 either way- tell me here! 👇🏻 . . . . . . . . . . . . . . #LDS #LDShomeschool #ldshomeschoolers #letthemexplore #themagicofchildhood #adventuresofchildren #wildexplorersclub #kidswhoexplore #littleandbrave #sharegoodness #wildandfreechildren #homeschoolfamily #unschooling #homeschool #wildandbravelittles #letthembelittle #childhoodunplugged #themagicofchildhood #welleducatedheart #homeschoolcollective #athomereallearning #intenionalliving #thegoodandthebeautiful #wildandfree #ldsmom #womenintheworld I woke to a hateful message this morning telling me I was a “terrible mother” (actual verbiage used) because Dolly takes a bottle now and then. That I “really don’t have my children’s best interest at heart.” 😔 I just don’t get it. Can’t we all just give each other the benefit of the doubt and assume that we’re doing the best we can? Ugh. 💔 Spread love today friends. Tag someone here with a message or a kind word or something you admire about them. We can do better than this... for the sake of our babies. 💛 #sharegoodness Couldn’t make this stuff up if we tried... the master artist. 💛✨ We sat out and watched the sky turn a hundred beautiful colors as the sun set behind the mountains, and I said a silent prayer of thanksgiving to my Heavenly Father for these sweet little people I get to call my own. I’m far from a perfect mama- I lose my patience all too quickly more often than not, and I worry every day that I’m not doing this right... but gosh I love them. My time will set with them all too quickly and I just pray I never take a moment of it for granted. #sunrisesunset
