I thought I was out of the baby phase, past the toddler stage. But now we have a puppy. Oh, my. So much personality and so much energy! He adds a little life and plenty of entertainment to our days, and he often reminds me of the days when I had little ones underfoot. Who else has little ones, or puppies, underfoot? I encourage you to savor the joy even amidst the work and chaos. For more encouragement, let’s talk about our weekly blog hop! The post that had the most views last week was New Recipes We’ve Been Making.
My features this week are:
- Apple Cider Cinnamon Sugar Donuts because cider donuts were one of my favorite things about living in New England!
- Elderberry Immune Syrup because cold and flu season will be arriving, not to mention other diseases and needs for immune-boosting!
- When Your Mind Won’t Shut Down because I sometimes find it hard to keep my anxiety and worries at bay.
And Now, for This Week’s Encouraging Hearts & Home Blog Hop!

We still have 4 teens living at home who are all doing an amazing job with puppy training/caring/loving. It brings me joy to see them all so happy!
