Scriptures






Dear Parents,  
I wanted to share some scriptures that have been encouraging me lately. Remember, you are not alone in this season!  

"Understand this, my dear brothers and sisters: You must all be quick to listen, slow to speak, and slow to get angry." - James 1:19 

" The Lord says, “I will guide you along the best pathway for your life. 
    I will advise you and watch over you." - Psalm 32:8 

“But those who trust in the Lord will find new strength. 

    They will soar high on wings like eagles. 

They will run and not grow weary. 

    They will walk and not faint." - Isaiah 40:31 

"Children are a gift from the Lord; 

    they are a reward from him. 

 Children born to a young man 

    are like arrows in a warrior’s hands."- Psalm 127:3-4 


"Guard your heart above all else, 

for it determines the course of your life." - Proverbs 4:23 


"I will teach all your children, 
    and they will enjoy great peace." - Isaiah 54:13 

"But Jesus said, “Let the children come to me. Don’t stop them! For the Kingdom of Heaven belongs to those who are like these children.”- Matthew 19:14 
“Listen to me, descendants of Jacob, 

    all you who remain in Israel. 

I have cared for you since you were born. 

    Yes, I carried you before you were born. 

 I will be your God throughout your lifetime— 

    until your hair is white with age. 

I made you, and I will care for you. 
    I will carry you along and save you." - Isaiah 46:3-4 

“Yes, I am the vine; you are the branches. Those who remain in me, and I in them, will produce much fruit. For apart from me you can do nothing."- John 15:5 
  
You are loved!  
Blessings, Miss Kat

    Thanks Kat. As another new week at working from home and being quarantined from my family continues, these words of encouragement are what I needed to finish off my morning devotion!

Welcome Back & Book Review

Hi Parents!      How are you all doing?  I pray that you all are well and that you are finding some sort of beauty in this season. If I'm being honest, the combination of more family time and slowing down has helped me pinpoint some gaps in my parenting.      A few weeks ago, after a couple of challenging days with my little ones, I plopped into bed feeling that same old familiar feeling of tiredness mixed with unsettling. Did my children hold a secret meeting to plan ways to push my buttons? I pictured them in their super hero pjs writing their plan on a whiteboard while I thought they were sleeping. I laid in bed and started scrolling different articles, blogs and parenting websites for guidance.  I ended up ordering some books to help me with these cycles that I feel I get stuck in with my parenting.      Over Spring break I dove into No-Drama Discipline: The Whole-Brain Way to Calm the Chaos and Nurture Your Child's D...

3 Ways to Teach Empathy to Your Preschooler

Hey Parents, Teaching empathy is harder than it seems. Studies actually call empathy a skill and, as you may know already, it comes more easily to some than others. So what exactly is empathy? Empathy is defined as "the ability to understand and share the feelings of another." My favorite explanation is given by the one and only Brene Brown- Check it out below.. So now that we've defined what empathy is, we can start to practice it.  Because if there's one thing I know about having children, it's that it's nearly impossible to teach something well if you don't practice it yourself. Which leads me to my first point. Model it -  Yikes this is a challenging one! Being mindful that our children are watching most everything we do is important. They're watching you treat your waitress with kindness or ignoring your postal worker. They're learning from you picking up the trash outside the restaurant or leaving things for someone else to ...
