Blessed are those who find wisdom, those who gain understanding. Proverbs 3:13
In today's day and age when Christmas comes into the conversation it seems to be followed by the idea of "bigger is better." Everyone is looking for the best gifts, brightest lights, and most stunning decorations to "wow" friends and family. Don't get me wrong, I love a good holiday display. The problem is with… Continue reading Christmas on a Budget
The holiday season is often marked by the traditions that families create. I don't know of anyone that hasn't developed at least one tradition to go along with each holiday. When Dusty and I got married we spent a lot of time talking about the different traditions that we had as we grew up. Things… Continue reading My Favorite Holiday Traditions
Welcome to Blogmas Day 2 here at A Wise Woman in Progress. Today's post is all about me. Geeze that makes me sound super into myself doesn't it? I try hard to be more general when I write on here because, well, I just don't find me to be all that interesting. BUT when I… Continue reading The Christmas Tag
I have a confession. I spend way more time scrolling through Pinterest searching for new recipes I will never make, new projects I will never attempt, and generally dreaming of a hypothetical world where I have all the time, energy, and ability to complete the hundreds of things I have "pinned" on my 100 and… Continue reading Blogmas 2019

But… Continue reading My Top 10 Home-school Must Haves
Cleaning. It's like the adult version of "The Neverending Story" isn't it. You can spend hours cleaning a particular room of your house and then just a few short days (or minutes in my case in a home with three young children) it just has to be done all over again. And then, while you… Continue reading Creating a Cleaning Schedule that Works
I love the beginning of a new month. Truth be told, I actually like Mondays for the same reason. I love the idea of a blank slate. A fresh start. The beginning of September also tends to bring with it the beginning of a new season. September 1st tends to mark the first unofficial day… Continue reading Hello September
If you caught my post about Embracing the Positivity last week you know that this school year we are on a mission to focus on the positive aspects of each week. This week I was reminded, simply by an off hand comment, of one area that often gets translated into the negative side of being… Continue reading Welcome to Mars Hall Legacy Academy
I have this friend who works in public education and has for...I think he said this was year 22. Last week he made the decision to use this academic year to focus on the positive things happening in the classroom, school, and district around him.
