Each baby shower is an occasion for women outside a childbearing season themselves to remember to honor the life-giving purpose of women. Not all women do give life via childbirth, yet all women are for life – creating, nurturing, and developing life.

Cultivating Joy as a Fruit of the Spirit - a how-to for moms
Join the Joy Reset: https://shop.simplyconvivial.com/joy-reset
Christians must remember that joy is a fruit of the Spirit. Joy does not originate from within us; it comes from the Holy Spirit. We can ask for joy, knowing that God delights in giving it. To increase joy, take a minute to pray, asking God to increase your joy for His glory. God provides joy by guiding us to walk in His way. As you ask for joy, stay open to the Holy Spirit's guidance.
To increase the joy in your home, smile intentionally at each family member. Make someone laugh by doing or saying something funny. This simple act can significantly lighten the mood and atmosphere in your home. Share your experiences and results in the comments. Experiment with different ways to bring joy to those around you and observe the positive changes.

We learn to shift focus from blaming others or circumstances to utilizing the power of the Holy Spirit, and we create a resources list of ten things that make us happy and grateful. This episode offers practical steps to transition from ingratitude to gratitude and from anger to joy, encouraging a transformative mindset and a motivated approach to daily life.

Organize October Challenge: https://simplyconvivial.com/october
This episode focuses on the common issue of master bedrooms becoming dumping grounds for household clutter. The script emphasizes the importance of recognizing the master bedroom as a symbolic heart of the home, representing the relationship between husband and wife. It encourages viewers to reflect on the purpose of their bedroom, identify what they love about it, and consider what changes could improve its functionality and welcoming atmosphere. The goal is to create a space that fosters connection and relaxation for both partners, rather than just a storage area for miscellaneous items.

Spend a full minute, with a timer, thanking God for the things you love about your entry and living room.

Now, certainly there are more steps you might take. We haven’t vacuumed, washed windows, or done anything too drastic. However, we have dealt with the common irritants that most often inhibit the living room from doing its job. That’s always where we should begin. Then, if that’s as far as we get, it’s ok because the space is functional and the living, not the arrangement or appearance, is the point.

Making kitchen life joyful! Identify a common complaint you have about your kitchen. Replace it with a written, related statement of gratitude.
The kitchen sink is obnoxiously small and shallow. Now, the observation that the sink is small and shallow, especially compared to the sink I had before, is simply a fact. What makes it a complaint is when I make this observation out of irritation, as if I deserved better or can’t work under such oppressive circumstances. I add the drama. I am provoked. So, here’s my written gratitude statement: The kitchen sink might be inconvenient, but I’m so glad there’s a utility sink just a few feet away in the laundry room where I can wash and soak large pots and pans. What a blessing!

With over two decades of homemaking under my belt now, I have come to a breakthrough insight: Kitchens are functional when there’s a clear workspace available. Shocking, I know.

Kitchen cleaning week! Join the free challenge: https://simplyconvivial.com/october
Our goal in working in our kitchen needs to not be about giving it a beige-linen aesthetic, but rather about keeping it functional.
Even in a small kitchen, there are many areas to focus on. By choosing one area to work in consistently, we can make visible progress.
I recommend making this focus area the sink area. Every kitchen has it, and it’s where the most repetitions must be put in - every time we cook or eat, dishes get dirty and need to be cleaned and then put away. That’s a lot of action. It makes a huge difference to our routines as homemakers when the most used areas have a bit more order and attention.
First, start by washing all the dishes in and around your sink.

Kitchen cleaning week! Join the free challenge: https://simplyconvivial.com/october
So instead of just randomly cleaning whatever catches our eye, let’s take a minute to examine our space and our needs. Then we’ll be able to make smart choices for what to clean and where to focus our limited chore time.
Now, I’d love to give the litany of improvements I *wish* I could make, but we’re going to stick with what’s actually feasible and “on my paper” or “in my lane.” I need to declutter the fridge front and spend 5-10 minutes putting more order in the pantry.
The key with this prompt is to not go into critical mode, but rather problem-solving mode.
