About Me ~ Hello and welcome to my site!​

I’m Emily – a working, married mother incorporating Catholicism, coffee, and the color purple into my life! The name for this blog comes from Proverbs 31:10-31. It describes a woman serving and loving God and her family (and wearing the color purple)!

On this blog I share stories and tips as I attempt to maintain my sanity and my homestead while striving to enter the Kingdom of Heaven!

Here are some of things I will write about:

1- Catholicism- Our family is Roman Catholic. Though I am a cradle Catholic, I am always learning something new about our faith. Here you will be able to learn more about Catholicism and liturgical living. I also plan on sharing how we incorporate some traditional customs into our domestic church!

2- Family and Homestead- My husband and I (along with our daughters Anastasia and Philomena) live on a few acres just outside a small town in Louisiana where we have started homesteading with a little garden and some chickens. I also work part time at a hospital as a pediatric physician assistant which still allows me time to homeschool my oldest daughter. I plan to share our family’s lessons, triumphs, and struggles while trying to lead lives pleasing to God.

3- I enjoy staying organized with checklists (or, as I call them, my “paper brain”). I will share my methods of organization and tips for managing the household. You will be able to find printables throughout the blog.

I hope you enjoy reading!
