A typical Tuesday in our classroom. Morning basket, math and history. We love having tea + a yummy treat with our history lessons and honestly, it’s probably my favorite school day! It’s definitely a bit more work for me but it’s such a special time 🏡📚✂️✏️🫶🏼 #dayinthelife #homeschoolrhythm by @mamabirdart

Salted maple latte:
1 Tablespoon real maple syrup, we love this one from Costco
1 teaspoon vanilla bean paste from Trader Joe’s
2 shots espresso
Steamed milk, I prefer whole milk
1/2 Tablespoon collagen (optional) I like @perfectsupplements
A pinch of flaky salt, I’m using @maldonsalt

Pull your shots over maple syrup & vanilla paste, whisk together just until combined, don’t over do it or it will be super frothy. Add steamed milk, collagen and stir with a spoon to combine. Add a pinch of salt and stir once more until incorporated. Enjoy! #wearethehomemakers #saltedmaplelatte by @mamabirdart

Decorating for autumn with the kiddos! I really love that I was able to capture their excitement and silliness on camera. They’re the best kiddos and celebrating seasons is so much more exciting with them. Everything feels special and the little things like an autumn wreath and pumpkins really are big things 🍂🕯️🍁

What I wore last week and what I did as a mama of 4! This week was really exciting because on Friday we drove to California to pick up our little rescue, she’s an absolute doll and we’re all pretty smitten with her!

If I can encourage you to do something, it would be to read your Bible & pray. The word of God is alive and God uses it to speak to our hearts. 🫶🏽

Here’s some verses to encourage your heart. I would encourage you to open your Bible, mark them down if they speak to you and ask God to meet with you. He’s so good to us 🤍

Psalm 66:9
Proverbs 2:7-8
Proverbs 3:3-10
Proverbs 8:11
Proverbs 8:17
Proverbs 10:22
Jeremiah 29:11
Jeremiah 30:22
John 3:16

Spend the homeschool day with us!
📚🏡✂️✏️☕️🍂🫶🏽📝

This year I’m homeschooling all 4 of my kiddos and it’s been an adjustment and I’m being stretched in the best way! It’s getting a bit easier and I’m really, truly proud of us 🫶🏽

Homeschooling is such a gift and it’s not lost on me that I get to stay home & be with my kids all day. What a blessing. God is so incredibly faithful, He called me to this. Homeschooling was never my plan, but here I am 7 years in and I truly do love it.

Let me know if you homeschool, if you’re new to it or if it’s what you’ve always done. Also, if you want any of the links for what we’re using here, let me know!

My lesson keeper planner is from @salas.living and I love it 🫶🏽

Same day, different times! Don’t forget that you live in your home & you’re making memories there. Messes will happen & that’s okay! I’ve been having my kiddos help me daily with an afternoon clean up, normally right after lunch. It’s been such a gift to our home & to me because I have more help. Working together as a team is so important 🫶🏽📚🏡🫧🧺 by @mamabirdart
