making my home a haven

Monica at The Homespun Heart is encouraging us with Making Your Home a Haven week. She starts it off with a beautiful prayer and a challenge to declutter our homes. This is such a perfect match for what was already on my heart for my week ahead. I want to go into the holidays with a fresh heart and home.

Here are some things I hope to do today:

  • sort through the huge pile of mail
  • get all clean laundry put away
  • tidy bathroom counter
  • recycle newspapers/magazines/catalogs
  • finish cutting & filing coupons
  • help kids make Thanksgiving Countdown
  • beef stew & cornbread for dinner

The list could go on & on, but I’m trying to keep it realistic with a new baby in the house. Would you like to Make Your Home a Haven too?

Just wanted to say hello and I hope things are going well! I love the countdown and I think my kids will too.
