Hi, friends! I’m Kim, I’m so glad you’re here. I’m happily a Mom to many (biological, step, foster, in-law, and many others who have chosen to call me Mom). From the time I was a young girl, I just knew my purpose and my heart’s greatest desire was to be a Mom. And a stay-at-home mom at that. I grew up in a family of faith and we prioritized spending time together, giving, and learning self-sufficiency. Acquiring skills like sewing, gardening, canning, raising our own meat (hint: don’t name the pigs!), and budgeting from a young age, helped me quickly discover my dream of my ideal life: raising a family simply and sufficiently! Believe me, it wasn’t always smooth. Remind me to tell you about the long journey of accumulating and paying off over half a million dollars in debt, even with a twenty-year career as a bookkeeper. But it’s those ebbs and flows, the seemingly daunting, and also celebratory moments of day-to-day life as a Mom and care-giver that inspired me to share my journey with you! Trust me, I get it. In today’s culture, being a stay-at-home mom and care-giver may seem like a rarity, but if you’re one of my friends who knows their purpose is precisely that, but aren’t sure if it’s possible (whether it be for financial concerns, societal narratives, or the like), or you desire to live a life of simplicity and sufficiency, this spot of the internet for you! My greatest passion is to live a life filled with family, faith, simplicity, encouragement, organization, and budgets (Yes, budgets. Don’t cringe! They really aren’t as scary as you think). And I consider it a wonderful privilege to walk alongside the busy, working mom as she creates her own path to her own simple and sufficient dream life, one budget, sustainable organizational system, and encouragement at a time.
