Curate Your Social Media

So many people now say social media is bad, and truthfully for children, it is bad. But for mentally healthy adults, social media can be a place of inspiration and a place to be challenged and even a place to grow in your faith.

Blogging Life

I received three beautiful back issues of Artful Blogging. I'm really enjoying pouring over the lovely pages and soaking up inspiration. This blog has always been a hybrid. It's partly about traditional marriage, femininity, and gender roles. But it's also a diary of my life as a wife and mother. In addition to my work … Continue reading Blogging Life

Husbands Have Authority Over Their Wives

A man has the right to set rules for his family, including his wife. Feminism often pushes egalitarian relationships, but this is not biblical. Scripture calls on women to submit to their husbands, not the other way around. This doesn't mean major decisions shouldn't be discussed.

I’m a Victorian Housewife

Trad wives are often compared to 50s housewives. That somewhat applies to me. I am very traditional. I wear dresses every day. As much as possible I wear jewelry to clean the house as well. I put my family first. I stayed home with my daughter before she started school. I am still at home … Continue reading I’m a Victorian Housewife

My Husband is Possessive and That’s a Good Thing

Men are wired to be territorial. It's part of masculinity. A strong, masculine man who is interested in you will naturally want to keep you for himself. My husband, for instance, doesn't like for me to wear short skirts or low cut dresses. Yes, he likes to look at me in those things, but he … Continue reading My Husband is Possessive and That’s a Good Thing
