The ways I have seen the Holy Spirit work to bring repentance + connection in my kids lives since this discovery has been quite life changing.

The book Heartfelt Discipline by @ckclarkson (@sally.clarkson ‘s husband!!) was the first book that changed the game for me. It was so healing + transformative for me as a daughter of God + mom 🥹

Also the resources that @flourishinghomesandfamilies is also very eye opening. Go check out some of their content + highlights if you want to dip your toes 😳"

Baby Led Feeding (Starting Solids) & Toddler Feeding on Instagram: "🥩 We’ve got a new blog for you on everything you need to know about steak for your baby! Type “𝗦𝗧𝗘𝗔𝗞” below for the link to the blog!

Meat, especially steak, probably isn’t one of the first foods you’d think of offering when you start solids with your baby! Steak poses a high choking risk for both babies and adults alike. However, it can be prepared safely for babies and it’s a highly nutritious food loaded with iron, zinc, and vitamin b12 that are all beneficial for baby’s optimal growth and development.

Viviane Farag- Baby & Toddler Nutrition Guide on Instagram: "‼️✨ Bone broth isn’t the best choice when starting solids because your baby’s gut lining is still developing and it’s one of the first defenses they have to protect against harmful bacteria, toxins, and other gut stressors.
 Bone broth can actually be irritating to a developing gut!

🕒 The long cooking time breaks down proteins, releasing glutamic acid, which turns into glutamate—an excitotoxin.

This can overstimulate nerve cells, causing brain inflammation and digestive stress.

In babies, whose gut lining is still developing (a vital protective layer), this can be especially problematic.

Ashley Gondek | Realistic ER Nurse on Instagram: "Comment “SOCKS” and I’ll send the method straight to your inbox 📨

When your child has a fever, supporting their body naturally can be simple and effective. One of my favorite remedies is the “cold wet sock remedy.”

Here’s how it works:
The cold socks stimulate circulation, boost the immune system, and help reduce inflammation—all while your child rests. Just remember: don’t take the socks off until they’re completely dry for the best results!

Make sure to SAVE this and SHARE with a mama friend 🌿

A quick reminder: It’s not about the number on the thermometer—it’s about how your child is acting and feeling. Fevers are the body’s natural way of fighting off illness, remedies like this can provide gentle support. But always follow your i

The toys can then be donated to a local shelter, charity, church, or thrift store. And even if your family chooses not to do Santa, it can be easily adapted and use the same concept. Such a sweet way to help our babies keep perspective this season 🫶🏻🎄

I got a little teary when he ran out of class holding the picture and I realized how much this Christmas Eve tradition we started when he was three means to him now.

I got the idea for a Shepherd’s Dinner from one of my favorite books, The Life-Giving Home, by @sally.clarkson (highly recommend!) and this will be our fourth year doing it.

It’s super simple (and perfect for me) because it involves NO COOKING 😂

M+J Thrifts | Minimal Thrifted Finds for Kids on Instagram: "The answer is…

Way less than you think! Newborns can get by with mostly just pajamas and onesies and you’re probably not going to have the energy to put them in anything more than that.

When determining how much you need for newborn and 0-3 months, I suggest starting with a color base (warm or cool) and your laundry habits.
I’m a once every 10 days or so laundry person so here’s what I went with:

-10 onesies (varying sleeves depending on temp)
-5 pants/bottoms (I had spring/summer babies and they are on you or swaddled almost constantly so I rarely used bottoms)
-5 pajamas + 2-3 swaddle/sleep sacks (rewear if not soiled!)
-5 one piece “outfits”
-2-3 sleep gowns for early days of snuggles and lots of diaper changes

We already had these velcro strips in the house so decided to give it a try and WOW 🤩

This is the perfect solution to baby proofing without ugly plastic parts everywhere!! 😍

You can also leave your cupboards closed but not fully adhered to the velcro for easy opening when your little troublemaker isn’t around!

Liz Haselmayer on Instagram: "You don’t have to create a “womb like environment” for your baby to sleep.

In fact, leaving your baby’s arms out can actually be beneficial for their development.

We think a tight arms-in swaddle is helpful because it suppresses baby’s startle reflex but what it’s actually doing is allowing them to RETAIN their startle reflex.

Babies who have their arms free “grow out” of their startle reflex SOONER.

There are ways to support baby’s sleep that don’t involve tight swaddles, blackout curtains, or sound machines.

Here are some sleep support alternatives that have worked well for us:

-free movement during wake times. Letting baby kick around on a blanket instead of setting them in a swing or bouncer really optimizes baby’s neurodevelopment during those sh

Dr Ainslee Roughan on Instagram: "She fell asleep within 2 minutes of doing this! And this isn't a one off, it's a regular occurrence. Follow @babysleepwithainslee for more holistic sleep info.

When our babies get dysregulated & overstimulated (also known as "overtired"), falling asleep can require more support.

More support can look different from baby to baby, depending on their needs, but a GREAT place to start for some babies when less sensory input isn't working is with MORE sensory input, not less. Lots of parents assume LESS sensory input is needed to help a baby get to sleep. *every baby has different sensory needs, some need less, but lots need more sensory input*

Danielle P on Instagram: "“I’d like to homeschool, but I don’t have time.” If that is you, keep reading 👇🏼 In CA, it is required to teach for 3 hours, 175 days out of the calendar year. This is an average of 3.5 days per week, or 11 hours of instruction per week. Because you get to create your own school schedule, this can be done after work in the evening, in the mornings on the weekend, or however YOU can make it work! In addition, these hours do not all need to be direct teaching. Some of this time can consist of silent reading, learning a reading or math lesson from a tutor, video, or tablet, etc. Although I am not a fan of excessive screen time, there are some engaging learning programs that can help kids in specified areas if you need.

Emily De La Torre on Instagram: "Perhaps your child is not abnormal. Perhaps they simply need more time. Time to bake. Time to play. Time to simmer and deepen these newly forming pathways of self regulation and strong attention spans. The research on delaying formal education until age 6-7 is actually fascinating. Benefits are seen in emotional temperament, athletic performance and testing performance. Perhaps this information will empower parents on the fence to make bold decisions for their family. My hope is that we do not take age 5 as the basis of “school readiness” (at least in the U.S.)…but rather we encourage parents to trust their gut on when they believe their unique child is ready.

Taylor Moran on Instagram: "NOT JUST BABIES — we should *all* be barefoot as much as possible.

Gus is almost 2 and we only recently bought him his first pair of shoes, *only* because he wanted to walk at the grocery store & not ride in the cart anymore 🤪

The boys all have shoes for errands and for winter — but they’re BAREFOOT SHOES — which is super important! They don’t scrunch up their little toes, & allow for the feet to flex and move naturally.

Any shoes that aren’t barefoot shoes are BAD for our feet, and change the way our feet grow & change our entire body posture! (Throw away those chunky shoes!)

I switched to barefoot shoes in 2017 and solved what I thought would just be lifelong back & neck pain. It was incredible! Highly recommend them! Because I wasn’t raised barefoot, I’
