I’ve been absent lately—please forgive me, dear readers! This time of year brings with it seasonal depression and a bit of chaos, but I’m here! There’s lots of life updates to come, including progress on therapies for our youngest, school for the big kids, and more.
It’s seems every year I only manage to get one or two Advent posts out in the blogosphere, despite planning for way more. Yet here we are once again—it’s December 5, and…well, here’s my first post.
As we round the corner on the weirdest year (ever?), with just under 10 days until Christmas, I wanted to share with you just a few last minute crafts. These are great gifts, great things to do if you find yourself in need of a way to connect AND kill some time, and are super easy. Most of you will probably have the majority of these craft items already on hand, too, thus lessening any additional burden brought on by last minute shopping. The best part? You really don’t even need to be crafty to pull these off–I promise!
Doesn’t it feel like it was JUST Mother’s Day? Well, here we are almost halfway through June, and Father’s Day is fast approaching. Here are some gifts (that aren’t just about beer-and-BBQs!) for the dads in your life — your husband, father, brother, in-laws, etc.

Hi there, I’m Caitlin: mama bear, joy-seeker, daughter of the King, and wife! I’m from upstate NY, but now we live in NC. In addition to being a stay at home mom, I’m an avid DIY crafter, volunteer, disciple, and village-builder. My mission here is to bring you some encouragement along the journey of motherhood through my faith, foibles, and failures as I bumble and stumble along the path of life as a woman, wife, and mom of little kids.
