MOMS, braving the waters together: Recent Episodes
Christy Housley
Moms, we are adventures, bravely and fiercely going through uncharted waters. Lets do this together, gaining insight and encouragement from other moms with practical advice to help us through this season and maybe share some of our own. I believe all of us excel in certain areas of motherhood and have tips to share.
In this episode you will learn how a mother of 4 decided to downsize and de-clutter so they could live in the place they wanted and have it only take one hour to clean! She offers advice on how to have only things you and your family love and how to fit it within everyone's different personalities and interests. This is lengthy but I couldn't cut anything out, her comments were so relevant.
What to do with your kids when you can't go anywhere and they don't know what to do with themselves, in other words, Hello Summer!!

Have you thought about adding in exercise as a busy mom? Where could you fit it in? How would your family react? Do you have the resolve to do it? How would it logistically work?

In this episode Amanda Norton, mother of 6, describes how she home schools all her children and has been for many years. She explains the day to day activities, schedule, planning, and routines of the family. She answers the question which has always evaded me, how do you home school all different levels with one teacher? I especially love the role that her husband, the artist, plays in all of this.
