Hi! I’m Lucille.

So glad you stopped by to my home on the web. I am a wife and homeschooling mama to 3 boys and a girl.  Life is surely full but good.  You will mostly find biblical encouragement here, as I blog about what I am learning and discovering in my walk with the Lord, but I do post on topics of motherhood, raising boys, being a wife, herbs, and gardening also.  

The Lord is my ultimate inspiration in everything I do.  He enables me to live my life well inspired whether that be in my writing, mothering, marriage, gardening, preserving food, natural herbal medicines, or my design work.  It is all for His glory.
