How to be happy as a mom

Simply Convivial: Biblical Homemaking, Homeschooling... ·

2022/08/04

We tend to think of happiness as a mere feeling, something nice but unnecessary, something transient and superficial. However, happiness has always been a topic of deep interest to philosophers, and there is a long Christian tradition of both what happiness truly is and also how important it is.Aristotle, Augustine, Aquinas, Pascal, Lewis – all agree that what people are searching for is happiness. And that is not a sinful search, but a proper one. We were created to live in perfect harmony

Free home routine guide: https://www.simplyconvivial.com/routinesTrue confession: I’ve tried every configuration of laundry routine out there and never found one that made me stay on top of laundry.I can discover a good rhythm, but then something will change.It turns out that laundry is not evenly produced over time, so if by a “consistent” laundry routine we mean one where we do the same thing all the time and get the same results, it’s just never going to work.

Camaraderie-style accountability can help us spur one another on to any sort of good work: homemaking, homeschooling, holiness.And let us consider how to stir up one another to love and good works – Hebrews 10:24Camaraderie-based accountability doesn’t have to be official, with rules and agreed-upon terms. If rules float your boat, lay some out; remember, however, that our lives demand flexibility. Hold the rules loosely, as guidelines, not as whips. If rules scare you, you don’t need them

I often hear from women who say they were organized when they worked in an office, but they just can’t manage to be – or at least feel – organized at home.What makes it so hard to stay on top of basic tasks? Why is organization so hard to maintain?I think it’s due to both the open-ended and repetitive nature of the job.There are no bosses, no managers, no teachers.
