MommySecrets

Being a mom is the hardest thing I've ever done, but it has brought me so much joy! I want to encourage other moms on their journey, I'll share motherhood tricks, spotlight tips I've learned from friends, and I hope you will share your ideas. I will focus on secrets that help families stay balanced, healthy, frugal, creative, and closely knit. I will also share favorite fiction and nonfiction books that I have enjoyed. Many blessings to you on your mothering journey!

Amber Brown by Paula Danzier
A Wrinkle in Time
Encyclopedia Brown
Stanley books
Grandma's Attic by Arleta Richardson

P.S. If I have any of these books in the wrong age categories, please let me know! Since I haven't read all of them (yet!), I'd really appreciate your feedback before I open them with my little guy.

Redwall is a great series, especially for a boy, but I have read the first two and I think they could be a bit scary for a 3rd grader. I would lean more towards 4th or 5th grade for this series.
