Homemaking
My Experience From Homemaking
Homemaking takes up the majority of my time at the moment. It can be fun and rewarding but also feel never-ending and mundane. In this category, you can find all kinds of different things that are related to keeping a home.Homemaking As A Creative Outlet
During the last few years, I have realized that many of the tasks that you do in a home are an opportunity to be creative. A lot of the things I do in my home are new territories. Some new and some I have some experience from before. But I sure have learned so much about different things like cooking, cleaning, doing fun creative things with my children, and so on. So in this category of our blog, I share some of the things I learned with all of you.Finding Joy In The Mundane
Even if I am thankful for many things that I get to do as a mom, sometimes I also get discouraged and start to feel like life is too repetitive. So you are so welcome to join me on this journey, knowing that even if it brings a lot of joy it can sometimes also feel burdensome and I would never want to make it look more glamorous than it really is. You are also so welcome with your comments, it is so encouraging to share tips, tricks, and experiences with each other.-
