Emphasis On Moms                                        

       Don't run from who you are ~ embrace it!

 

You are a Mom ~   You are a Wife ~   You are a Lady ~

Emphasis On Moms is focused on giving moms words of encouragement and support. Our goal is to bring you hope and help for your life as parents, individual women, and wives.

We know that your family means everything to you. Yet in our stressed, busy, overwhelmed world a mom can struggle with low self esteem, finding time for her marriage relationship, maintaining family values, and just being a positive parent.

Emphasis On Moms is here to help you feel good about who you are, while bringing inspiration and perspective to your heart through our resources, blog, and parenting tips. 

You put everything you are into caring for your family - now its time to be lavished with some love, honesty and a reminder that you're not alone.

Proverbs 12:25/Matthew 6:27

"An anxious heart weighs a man down" & Matt. 6:27 "Who of you by worrying can add a single hour to his life?"

It's a proven fact that most of our battles happen in our mind. Our thoughts direct our paths, and what we dwell on affects our physical as well as emotional makeup. Worry comes out of fear. Fear comes out of not being fully aware or secure in the depth, breadth, and inexhaustible supply of God's love, mercy, and protection.

What Makes You - You?  ~ By Dionna Sanchez

I was thinking this morning while getting ready for my day. (Yes, that happens.)  I was thinking about the time it takes me to get ready.   You see, I have very straight hair.  But I like curly hair.  So I spend the time each morning to curly my hair to my specifications with a curling iron.  Some people laugh at me for the time it takes me to get ready.  Some people have opened their eyes in shock and astonishment and then told me that they get ready in 30 minutes.  But I've decided that that's okay.  Because I get lots of compliments on my hair. Lots.  And I love it.  It's "me."

I may have to fuss on my hair a little bit more but it's unique and it sets me apart from others.  It's part of what defines my look.

So, what makes you "you?"  READ MORE....

 

 

A Blessed Step ~ By Dionna Sanchez

 

Stepparents are very near and dear to my heart.  I think being one has got to be one of the most heart wrenching yet rewarding jobs today.  Because it IS a job - I should know.  I became a stepmom at the age of 23.  If you would've asked me when I was growing up where I saw my life heading, I would've laughed at even the remotest suggestion or possibility of ever marrying someone who already had a child.  That just wasn't part of the "dream" ya know?  But I wised up quickly!  I learned a lot and God quickly taught me that His grace applies to EVERYONE.

Today, I want to encourage and uplift all stepparents out there who have jumped in to their blended family situation with both of their feet.  I am here to applaud you because our children (and that is truly what they have become) need us.  READ MORE....

 

Media Influence ~ By Courtney Kirkland

 

Let's face it.

Whether we like it or not, the media is easily the most influential aspect of our society. Television, internet, "Smart Phones" and Social Networking have overwhelmed our culture and taken the mainstream society by storm. And it's not looking like it's going anywhere.

With the seemingly never-ending array of technological advances, it seems that we are destined to live in a culture with screens, buttons, and 'apps.'  READ MORE...

 

 

Half Done ~ By Dionna Sanchez

 

I was listening to a speaker online this morning and she was talking about how her child was 10 years old and her time with him was half over.  She meant of course, that her time and job as a mom was half over.

I immediately let out a gasp and a cry - "NO!", I thought. READ MORE....

Social Graces

How important is RSVP etiquette? It is invaluable & needs to be practiced in today's society. This not only shows respect for the hostess, but is of tremendous benefit to her in adequately planning the amount of food & other aspects. Do not leave the hostess guessing the number of guests on the day of the event.

Live a Healthier Life!

Are you getting enough sleep? You'll be more patient with your kids, spouse, have more energy during the day and won't be tempted to eat more food or slack off on exercise.

   

 

Sponsor a child online through Compassion's Christian child sponsorship ministry. Search for a child by age, gender, country, birthday, special needs and more.  

Drink water. Bring a water bottle for every member of your family. Keep hydrated throughout the day, even if you do not feel thirsty. Stick with water or juice, as caffeine & alcohol will dehydrate your body.
