The Big White Farmhouse

intentional living, little by little

October 4, 2011

{chit chat} Mamma Related Links

Today I’d like to share a few blog posts I’ve found recently that were really thought provoking:

Being Home.  Definitely a must read.  I love the wisdom from this mom and this post couldn’t have come at a more perfect time.  I recently was talking with someone I didn’t really know.  When she asked if my oldest had gone to preschool (to which I replied no), she was just incredulous and pretty much made me feel like a freak mother.  This post put into words everything in my heart.  Lonely road sometimes, but so worth it.

A Letter.  Very timely post for me and one that I need to remember more.  Instead of resentment, I want to replace it with gratitude.

Boys & Guns.  Another good one from Dee about maintaining the true essence of boyhood and how her family deals with “playing guns”.  
 
Stay-at-Home Moms Need Help.  One more interesting read.  I’d love to hear your thoughts about this one.
