Bible Verses For Overwhelming Times
Here are some Bible verses for overwhelming times to help staying focused on what is most important. We have all been there. In moments that feel too much, there is too much on our to-do list, too much craziness around us, too many emotions to handle both in ourselves and the people around us. Overwhelm, according to Oxford Languages, is to drown beneath a huge mass of something or to have a strong emotional effect on. I think I wasn’t really aware of overwhelm before I became a mom. Even if I had had moments that were overwhelming, those moments came and went by without me really noticing them. Life…

Flower Craft For Kids – FREE Download
Here is an idea on a flower craft for kids with a free printable. Summer is here, and in June, both our older children started their summer break. On their last day in school and kindergarten, they gave a card they had made themselves to their teachers. They both wrote down what they were thankful for to their teachers on the back of the cards. It was so sweet to see what their teachers had meant for them this year. Even if our children spend most of their time with us at home, it is also really nice to see how other adults in their live have such a special…

Birthday Cake Coloring Pages – FREE Download
Here are some free printable birthday cake coloring pages that have been designed in Canva. At the beginning of June, we celebrate our youngest daughter’s birthday. This year she turned three. It is crazy to think how fast years fly by. The saying “days are long but years are short” might sound like a cliche but it is very very true. We don’t have a baby anymore in our house. That thought is slowly sinking in. I guess our daughter technically hasn’t been a baby for a couple of years already but I think something happens when children turn three. They suddenly start playing a lot with kids their age…

Summer Knit Top – Knitting In Cotton
Knitting is a hobby I usually tend to pick up when days are getting darker and colder in the fall. There is something so cozy with knitting and I have always knitted mostly in wool. But during the last couple of years I have tried a few projects in cotton as well. I think it was Kutovakika actually that sparked my interest in knitting in cotton yarn and that opened up this whole new world of knitting garments that aren’t only meant for winter. If you are looking for knitting inspiration a good tip is to subscribe to Kutovakika on YouTube. Here is a link to her channel: https://www.youtube.com/@Kutovakika Right…

Things To Knit With Scrap Yarn – Striped Socks
I think all knitters have the same problem. Even if we try to not have a lot of scrap yarn lying around, we all end up having some of it and it can be hard to know what to do with it. A couple of weeks ago I was visiting my parents and I looked through the scrap yarn my mom had. Knitting something with her scrap yarn feels more fun for some reason than knitting with the yarn I have at home. đ I ended up with a lot of different colors in the same type of sock yarn and decided to knit some striped socks with them. Thing…

How To Overcome Fear Of Failure – Remembering Who God Is
Fear of failure is one of the things that can keep us from stepping into things that we want to pursue but that feel too big for us at the moment. Here are some thoughts about how to overcome fear of failure, and not letting fear dictate our lives. Over the years I have been blessed to walk alongside many wise people who really have helped me to analyze why I make the decisions I make.

Butterfly Origami – Origami Out Of Printer Paper
Folding origami out of printer paper that you color yourself is one way to make origami a little bit differently. My husband and his father are both really talented in folding origami. They both have the patience and fascination for that and can fold a lot of different animals. Right now my husband’s parents are visiting from Colombia and we spend a lot of time as a family with them. During the last couple of weeks I have been reminded of the fact that they are very good at folding origami. I am a person that likes to do creative things but when it comes to origami I only have…
