By TMoM Team Member Sandy Harper As moms, we give and give. We give our time, love, help, support and most of all grace. Yet, we rarely give ourselves grace. This got me thinking about things I need to remember for myself. If I need to remind myself of these, I...

By Lindsay Pace A few years ago I became uncharacteristically hooked on a show called Naked and Afraid. I was reluctant to watch a show with Naked in the title, feeling fed up with the tactics of using sex/sexuality to gain viewers. For whatever reason, I gave it a...

By TMoM Team Member Laura Simon Like many single moms, I never intended to become one. However, sheer will and prayer cannot govern another human being’s choices, so at the age of 42, I found myself the solo parent of three kids. Also, I’m a homeschooling mom...

By TMoM Team Member Suzy Fielders Up until I got married in May 2021, I was a single mom of one daughter. If you asked me in early 2019 what life would look like in 2023, I certainly wouldn’t have thought it’d be as part of a family of five! But now I have a...

By TMoM Team Member Laura Simon I basically drive a taxi. I mean, its silver, not yellow. But on any given day, I’m pretty sure I traverse the whole Triad. Why? My kids are in extracurricular activities. Swimming, soccer, music, theater – you name it, they’ve...

By TMoM Team Member Anna Keller When I think back on my life before kids, I’m always in awe of how much TIME I had. Time to wash, blow dry, and style my hair DAILY. (WHAT???) Time to make an involved recipe on a Tuesday evening. Time to be with friends, often last...
