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.

"Who
makes mouths?' the Lord asked Him (Moses). "Who makes people so
they can speak or not speak, hear or not hear, see or not see? Is it
not I, the Lord? Now go, and do as I have told you. I will help you
speak well, and I will tell you what to say."
There's
a phrase that goes something like this, "God doesn't call the
qualified, God qualifies the called." He gives us the skills we
need for the times we need them.

Waiting
For The Other Shoe To Drop ~ By Dionna Sanchez
I was
introduced to heartache at a young age. When I was 11 years
old, my grandpa died suddenly of a heart attack. Three weeks
later, my uncle died in a plane crash. These two traumatic
incidents were only the beginning of tragic events that would happen
in my life. I lost two friends and classmates - one my junior year
of high school and one the summer after graduation. I had two
cousins commit suicide a few years apart.

"For
we are God's workmanship, created in Christ Jesus to do good works,

The
other night I tossed and turned until close to midnight. I had
a "to-do" list that felt longer than the Nile River and
twice as deep. I finally climbed out of bed and worked until

The Burden of
Busyness ~ By Stephanie Romero
I have always
led a pretty busy life. I have experienced different seasons...at
one point I was a homeschooling mom, then at another point my three
children were all in school and I was home, then I went back to work.
No matter which season I was in, I was busy.
I think some
of us have come to equate busyness with success. If we aren’t
keeping busy, then we must not be accomplishing anything. READ

Overcoming a Fractured
Past ~ By Dionna Sanchez
They say where you come
from impacts who you are as a person every day. So, as a parent, what if you
came from a home where you didn't have the best of parents? You may not
have had the best examples yourself, of what and how to be a loving parent.
It can be far too easy to
remember the bad and negative stuff than it can be to remember the good. READ

Let everyone know
how much your love your family and who/what you are all about.
The
media influences our lives in such a powerful way. Now you can use the
media to your own advantage! Use it to open up discussions and topics
with your spouse and/or children to help you mold character, morals, and
values as well as build up your faith as a family.
Don't
forget to lotion your feet! Heels can get dry and crack easily -
especially in dry climates. Make a habit of having a lotion bottle
by your bed and apply nightly. You feet will not only feel better
- but they'll look better too!
If
you deal with a lot of clutter, make a list of where everything
belongs. Make sure your kids know where every
"home" is for each item around the house.
