Diary of a Sahm

“I know the responsibility that rests upon me- that rests on us as parents- is to raise these little people for God’s glory. He has entrusted us with them. The hard part is not ensuring our hearts are always towards our children so we can achieve this purpose… the hard part is to raise them with a Godly attitude, to make certain that their hearts, and our own, are fixed firmly on following God’s.” Jess is a stay-at-home-mum. With three children she deals daily with dramas that result from babies refusing to sleep, tantrums thrown in shopping centres, and her own melodramatic tendencies. Sometimes she’s sure her children were sent to test her, and to prove she’s not exactly the best person for the job. She’s also certain that God blessed her with these little monkeys and is doing His best to help her raise them for His glory. Which in her mind, is the highest calling in life. This is her diary: Always authentic, generally hopeful, and more than a little crazy.
