About Chasing Those Moments

things to do for kids, boredom busters, parenting blog, chasing those moments

I’m Melissa.

I’ve got five kids, one husband, two cats, one dog, three rabbits, three guinea pigs, a handful of fish, and one turtle.

I have an obsession with children’s books – like, it’s bad…. And I also collect children and animals, apparently.

I’m a homeschooling mom who loves to cook, write, craft, sing, and spend time with my family.

I am here to help you chase down and capture those meaningful little moments that occur everyday in the midst of all the crazy that is life.

When I grow up, I’d like to be organized and have it all together.  But for now, I’ll settle for being Mommy.

I’ll be sharing Christian devotional thoughts, parenting encouragement, family activity ideas, kid-tested recipes, curriculum and book reviews, and more with the purpose of helping you spot and make the most of “those moments” each day.

Also, check out the posts The Jesse Tree and Holy Week Activities for some great religious holiday activities/products for the whole family. My shop is full of educational resources, printables, and lesson plans that I have put together for my own use at home and church and would love to share with you.

It takes a lot of time and money to maintain a website and continue to produce great content. If you’ve been blessed by the content here and would like to make a donation to help keep the site up and running, I’d be so grateful. You can click here or use the donate button in the sidebar.
