Do you want a peaceful home?

Sometimes that feels hard to achieve, especially when schedules change and everything feels off. Hello, summertime? 😅

One trick is to start small and simple.

Focus on one thing (rhythm, routine, habit) in your home that brings peace. Maintain that through the changes, then you can build on and adapt around it as needed.

What is one of those small things that brings peace in your home?

Hi! I am Samantha, also known as the Quietside Mama. My hope is to share encouragement to and support for busy mamas and other women who want to overcome the overwhelm and make time for the sweeter things in life to find joy right where they are.

I didn't get breakfast in bed, but I did get to wake up to snuggles and a walk with my youngest.

I didn't get presents, but I got more hugs and "Mommy, watch this" than I can count.

I didn't get dinner out, but I got to see and hear my boys' delight when I announced hot dogs for dinner.

I didn't get flowers, but I do most days, picked right from our yard.

I didn't get any "time off" but I got to hear my boys all giggling as we watched TV together.

Somehow, the things I got far outweigh the things I didn't get. So much so that I don't even miss the things I didn't get. 😉😊

My heart is filled with thankfulness.

Happy Mother's Day.

Stop and smell the roses.
Appreciate the little things.
Life is made up of small moments. If we don't pay attention to them, life will pass us by.

Every now and then I look at my boys and have a fleeting glimpse of what I imagine they will be like as young men. It simultaneously makes me excited for what's to come and cherish these days even more...while pressing on me the importance of leading them in the Word and teaching them to be godly men.

Sure, there is no denying being a mom to four boys is a lot of work sometimes.

But it's an even bigger blessing.

I didn't know this song existed until I was choosing what to pair with this photo, but I have a feeling it will be a new favorite. (Song didn't carry over from Instagram, but it's Days God Gave by Matt Hammitt.)

Do you have a favorite song for the season you are in right now?

I don't have time for fake so yes, I absolutely am real.
..And ok, yes, a little crazy. Or a lot, but who's counting?

"See then that ye walk circumspectly, not as fools, but as wise, redeeming the time, because the days are evil." - Ephesians 5:15-16

We do live in evil days.
Let's make sure we are being wise, using our time well, and teaching our children to do the same.
There are enough fools out there already, let's not join them. 🙃

Happy April Fool's Day 😜
