If you have been following along recently, you know that we sold our beloved farmhouse and are preparing to build our dream home on our new farm property.  I’ve received lots of questions about why we bought a temporary home while we build and what our plans are for the future.  I’m sharing an update on how the move went and what the next steps are!  I’m also sharing encouragement for the younger mom.  There are so many things I allowed myself to feel guilty about in my early motherhood, and I want to offer you perspective and permission to let those things go.  Join me for this personal update and mini pep talk!

In this episode, we cover:

• Answering some common questions about selling our farmhouse, moving into town, and building on our new property
• My approach to caring for multiple small children at once without losing my mind
• Why our recent move was more stressful than I anticipated and how I tackled the chaos
• What I have learned over the years about managing the items our kids are constantly bringing into the house
• Getting into the practicals of how I dress my kids to spend ample time outdoors on the coldest of days
• Freeing you from the guilt that you are not doing enough for your kids
• The one homemaking task I never tire of
• My thoughts on keeping up with memories and milestones as a mother of eight kids
