By Contributing Writer, Bambi Moore This morning after I slept all night I woke up to a miracle. Did you catch it? That was the miracle. I slept all night. Not one person invaded my bed, afraid of The Crack (that space between the wall and the bed. Poisonous snakes live there between 2 and 4 […]
By Contributing Writer, Bambi Moore As moms we all go through times of discouragement, challenges and temptations that cause us to sin, doubt or cry out to God for wisdom. We may even have an MMM. You know. A Momentary Motherhood Meltdown. But real suffering? I’m a mom to eight. Many times I function throughout a day within […]
By Contributing Writer, Bambi Moore Maybe some of you have played out this same scenario in your own living room on Christmas morning: The family gathers around an enormous stack of gifts. Little Billy opens up two gifts and his eyes are as big as saucers. “WOW!! Thank you!! Is that really for me??!!” He’s […]
By Contributing Writer, Bambi Moore One of the first pieces of marital advice I received was, “Don’t be a nag!” Okaaaaay. I had no idea what a nag was. Until I became one. Is there hope for a nag {like me}? I asked google what the definition of nag was, and I got this: Verb: […]
By Contributing Writer, Bambi Moore In Christ Alone My hope is found He is my light, my strength, my song This cornerstone, this solid-ground Firm through the fiercest drought and storm What heights of love, what depths of peace When fears are stilled, when strivings cease My comforter, my all in all Here in the […]
By Contributing Writer, Bambi Moore We’ve been witnessing the crumbling of the Christian family for decades but are now observing the landslide. Society is no longer content to ignore the sanctity of marriage or blur the roles of Biblical manhood and womanhood—now it attacks with a vengeance. Over half of all marriages end in divorce, […]
By Contributing Writer, Bambi Moore This is the time of year that I’m cleaning out closets, donating or swapping books with other homeschool moms, and also making purchases. As homeschoolers we are blessed to have so many options out there, but what works for one family may not work for another. Also, there are so […]
By Contributing Writer, Bambi Moore This is not what I intended this post to be about. As a matter-of-fact, I started three different posts about the topic of education, and then deleted each one. I had some good brainstorms going about how society defines a successful education versus what God says. Yeah, that might have been a pretty decent post. Then I […]
By Contributing Writer, Bambi Moore This is my son Stephen. He’s a good boy, far as boys go. He loves the Lone Ranger, and he’s learning how to swim. He usually has a bruise on his forehead, and as soon as it disappears he gets a new one, yet he usually doesn’t recall where they […]
By Contributing Writer, Bambi Moore He hadn’t been out of prison long. He needed the work and my husband needed the help. The two of them began a two-hour commute each day on a small construction job that would take two weeks to complete. His heart was cold and hard. He’d lived a hard life […]

Potty Training: Mom of Nine Tells All
By Natalie, Editress of Visionary Womanhood Potty Training: A Necessary Evil I’ve been potty training for 16 years now (well, not me—but, you know—my kids) and have succeeded, during that time, in potty training four girls and three boys so far. I won’t tell you how much poop and pee I’ve cleaned up from walls, […]
Help! Pregnancy is Making My Body Fall Apart!
By Natalie, Editress of Visionary Womanhood I received the following e-mail recently: My husband and I are in the long slow process of changing our thinking about family size. We are currently expecting our fifth little treasure, and we are so grateful, and excited. And a little scared sometimes, too, haha. :) Our oldest is […]
Ten Criteria for Choosing Homeschool Curriculum
By Contributing Writer, Bambi Moore This is the time of year that I’m cleaning out closets, donating or swapping books with other homeschool moms, and also making purchases. As homeschoolers we are blessed to have so many options out there, but what works for one family may not work for another. Also, there are so […]
Demystifying the Institute for Excellence in Writing
By Natalie Klejwa, Editress of Visionary Womanhood Institute for Excellence in Writing (IEW) Home educating mothers tend to be overwhelmed by two subjects in particular. Science and writing. OK. Upper level math too. Since I’m not much of a left-brained gal, I won’t be writing any posts about dead animal dissections or the wonders of […]
By Contributing Writer, Carmon Friedrich 25 years. We are coming up on that many years of homeschooling our children. Almost a quarter century! That’s not long enough to consider ourselves pioneers in this endeavor, but it does mean we have “seen it all” minus the persecution of the brave folks who forged a path that […]
By Contributing Writer, Kimberly@Raising Olives Four small children romp around me as I will my pregnant self to do the next thing. Two diaper changes. Four little ones dressed for the day. Breakfast for six. Wipe four small faces and eight small hands. Wash dishes. Stop to nurse the baby and change two more diapers. […]
Medical vs. Natural Childbirth: A Personal Story
By Natalie Klejwa, Editress of Visionary Womanhood Twenty years ago I was pregnant with our first baby and determined to have a mid-wife and experience pregnancy and birth in the most “natural” way possible. Nineteen weeks into the pregnancy I began to spot a little. Since I could feel the baby moving and had no […]
Eating the Placenta: A Christian Worldview Perspective
By Natalie Klejwa, Editress of Visionary Womanhood Placentophagy, the practice of eating the placenta after giving birth, is a subject of some interest among Wemmicks these days. After googling it, I only found one other “voice” out there raising the question of whether or not it is a morally viable option for those who claim […]
