Blessings on you from the Elliott family! Thank you for subscribing, and we hope you enjoy today’s newsletter. Happy Tuesday. Do you love homeschooling? Do you love being a mom? Sometimes the reason mothering or homeschooling is hard is because, well, our kids are naughty and no fun to be around all day. Let's talk about this! My goal is to bring a little bit of Scripture, a sprinkle of encouragement, and a dash of hope to your day. I love a good cup of coffee (brewed like this), but if some other drink is more your style, I'm sure that will work. The point is for you to take a break from crazy living, just long enough for a sip of joy.
Daily Bible Verse"Honor your father and mother, that your days may be long on the land which YHVH your God gives you." (Exodus 20:12)
kavad—honor; to make great in weight, wealth, or importance; to give an abundance of importance or
respect. Source

The Bible says that younger women are “to love their husbands and children, to be self-controlled and pure, to be busy at home, to be kind, and to be subject to their husbands, so that no one will malign the word of God” (Titus 2:4-5). But it’s hard to continue to be “busy at home” when mom is exhausted, feeling overwhelmed by all there is to do in a
day, especially if she adds homeschooling to her long list of things to do. What are some common reasons that a mother gets tired? Continue
