Confession: While my husband remembers pretty much every detail of his life from the time he was two years old, I have a terrible memory, just remembering snippets here and there rather than specifics. Because of this, I hold the memories I do have tightly, and these candles are on that list. I can clearly…
I've been inspired over the last year by other moms who have shared how they write handwritten notes to their kids for various occasions. I haven't been very good at journaling or scrapbooking or even writing notes until now, but I love the idea of adding a note to their stockings each year so that…
This is a Sponsored post written by me on behalf of Dollar General for SocialSpark. All opinions are 100% mine. How much do you think the wrapping supplies in the photo above cost? $15? $20? My husband actually ran to Dollar General and picked all of this up for under $10! When he got back,…

Although it's too late for this year, these would also make a great addition to an Operation Christmas…
I've had the supplies for this project on hand for quite a while because we were going to make miniature frescoes during Easter as a homeschooling project (inspired by the Telling God's Story Activity Book). Then I thought they would make sweet Mother's Day gifts, or Father's Day, or -- well, you get the picture.…
When baby girl and I were working on our updated handprint calendar ideas, I fell in love with the fingerprint heart, so we decided to make a bigger version featuring all of the girls' fingerprints this time. Any project that calls for paint is popular in our house, and the girls had a lot of…
