It's weird to think about, but when my husband and I first married we were egalitarian. I submitted to no one. My husband and I were equal in all decisions. I cleaned, but I didn't do any cooking. I was immodest. I was obsessed with college and longed to go to grad school like I … Continue reading Change Over The Years

Housewives Should Be Beautiful
If you are a woman, in particular a stay at home wife or girlfriend, you should be as beautiful as you can. Every girl has different assets to work with. Put your best foot forward. Even on a day you are staying home and cleaning all day, you should look feminine and well put together. … Continue reading Housewives Should Be Beautiful
Husbands Are Commanded to Love Their Wives
A husband should love his wife like Christ loved the Church and be willing to lay his life down for her. But love isn't just who you die for. It's who you live for. Men with unhappy wives should ask themselves whether the decisions they make benefit the whole family, or only him. Do you … Continue reading Husbands Are Commanded to Love Their Wives
Working on Modesty and Purity of Heart
My husband doesn't like me to wear revealing clothes and wants me to have a modest look. Some husbands like to show their wives off, but my husband takes more of the stance that I am his, and no other guys should see anything. In a way, I really like this. I don't have to … Continue reading Working on Modesty and Purity of Heart
My Husband Is Home!
Last night, my husband came home around 1 am. We have mostly been having a slow day at home for him to rest. Currently, I've got his favorite chicken dish cooking in the crock pot. This week I plan to make chicken enchiladas. I hope it goes well. I've gathered up and organized my scrapbooking … Continue reading My Husband Is Home!

My husband left for a conference in Europe yesterday morning. My father in law is kindly staying with my daughter and I. We went out to the art store, and I bought this rolling cart. My FIL assembled it for me. Tools and building things just aren't in my feminine repertoire. The purpose is to … Continue reading A Little Organization/Update
My Portable Life
I wrote about this on my Instagram, but I want to write more about it here. I have made a portable life. Scrapbooking, writing, art, reading, etc. can be done anywhere. I have to move, on average, every two years or so. Having things I love that can be done anywhere enables me to have … Continue reading My Portable Life
Interview
Today, I did a delightful interview with a German social science researcher about the trad wife movement, what brought me to it, how was I raised, etc. The researcher was very nice and friendly, and I'd be glad to help her in the future. She said something too that really stuck with me. I told … Continue reading Interview
Thankful for my Bible Study Girls
This morning I had Bible study. Two of the girls weren't there (one just had a baby), and we missed them, but we had a nice meeting with those of us left. I love and respect my Bible study girls so much. They range from stay at home moms to professionals. But all are dedicated … Continue reading Thankful for my Bible Study Girls
11 Years
Yesterday was my husband and I's eleven year wedding anniversary. We didn't have a babysitter booked, so we took our daughter out to lunch with us and then to go get ice cream. He got me a sweet, romantic gift that is being made as a gofund me. It will be ready in a couple … Continue reading 11 Years
