Thanks for sharing that :) I will have my ultrasound on the 29th to date and see how they are doing :)

Great ideas! :) Thank you!

Thank you for your perspective :). Yes, I do understand his view on it from a financial standpoint. I know that a baby will add a lot to my workload also (as a homeschooling, stay at home mom!), but I can't help being thrilled about it anyway :) Probably a woman thing haha! I have been...

Yes it is!

Thanks for the thoughtful reply. I agree with all that you said. I will definitely pray about how to better fulfill his wants and needs. Physical fatigue can sometimes set in making it harder for me to do the things I really want to do for him (like cooking his steak and mashed potato dinners...

Great suggestions, thank you! I feel redundant saying thank you for his working, but I do sometimes. I am sure he would like if I said it more. I definitely need to watch my tone at certain times, all those hormones! :)

Definitely not perfect, but always trying to do and be better, with God's help :)

I need to do this even when I don't feel like it!

I probably don't thank him enough! Good suggestion :)

I do this too sometimes, but often he is the one who goes out, or we all go together :)

And ideas on how to show/communicate respect are appreciated too :)

Hi, I have been married almost 12 years, and my my husband and I have four kids that we homeschool (ages 2, 6, 8, 10). We just found out we are expecting another baby :) How can I make my husband feel loved and important to me when the kids need so much of my time? I would appreciate...

Thanks so much Solomons Porch <3

First, I want to give thanks and glory and praise to God, because today I found out that I am expecting my fifth child. I am SO happy and excited and feel SO blessed :) I request prayer for two reasons: My husband is not happy. We are a one income family (his income) and the financial aspect...

I struggled with cutting as a teen and in my early 20s as well. I was trying to escape the reality of my life at the time - my mom was sick and dying of cancer. I think I was also crying for help, for someone to take care of me. I felt very alone at that time. No counselor or intervention...

A few I can think of just now: The sound of my children laughing as they play together, especially the older with the younger (or all four together). Their sweet little voices saying "I love you" (to me or each other) The sound of birds chirping in early spring The appearance of a squirrel...

Love this, I can relate so much to all of it. I am always behind. My husband probably thinks I'm lazy, too, but really I am just overwhelmed. I wrote a breakdown of how many hours it would take to stay caught up and it was something like 70 per week with 30 for homeschooling my three school...

Thank you all for your responses :). I appreciate the encouragement :) Red Fox, Thanks for sharing about your family and health struggles. Wow, seven children! You are very blessed! I have four, ages 10, 8, 6, and 2. My oldest is in fourth grade and we have been homeschooling from the...

I think it is reasonable that she wants to look for pictures after her daughter visits with her ex, especially if he has posted pictures in the past. I do see how that would be uncomfortable for you, though. Maybe you could let her know that you're fine with her checking in on her daughter...

Hi everyone, just thought I'd reach out to see if there are any other homeschooling or stay at home moms that are dealing with chronic health issues. I have been having symptoms for almost two years now and it is so hard some days to keep up with everything. I want to be a good example to my...
