Now that Luke is a little older I am so excited to start some advent traditions with him! For the longest time I thought advent just referred to those little chocolate countdown calendars that my mom refused to buy (smart lady). But it’s so much more than that!

Author: Humble Motherhood
I'm wife to my best friend, mama of three littles here on earth and one up in heaven. I'm passionate about homemaking, books, theology, fostering imagination in my babies and cultivating community wherever the Navy sends us! God has called us as believers to love others well and to let iron sharpen iron (Proverbs 27:17) so that we may encourage and build each other up in Christ. So welcome to the Humble Motherhood village, I'm so grateful you're here!

4 Toddler Approved Activities
Unless he wants to read, Luke has a hard time sitting still! He is constantly in the dirt, playing with his bouncy balls and running around. He gets bored with his toys pretty quickly, so lately I've been trying to make more of an effort to set up new activities for him. Some have been… Continue reading 4 Toddler Approved Activities
Raising a Bookworm
It’s no secret that we love books at our house! Luke will usually ask us to read 10-15 books a day, many of them several times over. Cultivating a love of reading in your child is no easy task and to be honest I had zero clue on how to even start, but I knew… Continue reading Raising a Bookworm
