Ten steps to happy homemaking...

Come by my blog and read the latest: New and Improved: Ten steps to happy homemaking...

Like I said on Facebook, this list has had a makeover! I shared it in the 90's and then on here several years back. I gave it a new look, added details, and rearranged two tips so I could add another! This is another favorite item of mine that deserves a place on my blog!

Tomorrow night (technically tonight, but it is not tomorrow until I've gone to sleep as far as I'm concerned :)) we have a wedding to attend! Saturday we celebrate Leah's 15th Birthday! With all the upcoming birthdays, I'll probably be updating tributes for my blog (since only Hannah has her own blog page!). I figured that I'd just introduce each child around their birthday ... after J II's I will probably do Julia's (even though her b-day is in January, I hate to wait that long since I'll have done the other six kids :)). Then I'll have s l o w l y and methodically blogged about each of the kids! That's much less overwhelming than trying to blog my whole family at once!

I hope you all have a wonderful weekend...serving, loving, sharing...

    I'm still up too. I don't know why though. Probably because I know I don't have to go anywhere or do anything tomorrow.

    Read your blog and love it! So very true...


    I wanted to add too that I particularly like the part about the husband/wife relationship. I have heard of so many couples that forget to be a couple when the children come along. And then when the children have left home, the couple look at each other as if strangers and are. Sad.

    Excellent tips - I read the old version years ago and loved it, and although it has been so long ago that I cannot pick out the updates, it was is a good concise refresher course on happy homehood. I love your work, Sally!
