Family Organizational Tool

So the buzz in blogland is
ORGANIZATION
and I am joining in.

I am going to spend the rest of January re-creating the

WRIGHT Family HOME MANAGEMENT BINDER

I created a basic "get my ideas in order" for my home management as a starting point.
I think I will make this a project to blog about, because a few years ago when I created my family binder I searched and searched for other's pictures to get ideas. So here is a starting point. (on my sheet I am going to organize my thoughts on this subject and report back tomorrow).

Off to get batteries for my camera to take pictures of this project.

Yearning...

...hallowed grounds...
What an adventure we have been on to open the coffee and bake house, and how well it has been received! We certainly have met awesome families who have blessed us with great conversation and some theological debate. This is a great meeting place for community and such, but goodness how this mommy yearns for those "home days".

My sweet children are with me daily, they "coffeehouse school" and we all work together in the business, which has been a learning experience that we will cherish...yet I know my calling is in the HOME.
.
.
.
How hard it is to be a help-meet to my sweet pastoral husband,
how hard it is to manage a home from afar,
how hard it is to meal plan, how hard it is to prepare nutritious foods,
how hard it is to take care of my self,
how hard it is serve God in the church,
how hard it is to show the gift of hospitality,
how hard it is...
how hard it is...

January is typically spent in my home planning. Planning for spiritual goals, finances, health, homeschooling, and such.

Confession:
My Household Management Book is in shambles! (picture following) Which is just what I am feeling inside right now.
.
.
.
So to begin I pray:
Philippians 4:13
I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me.
This is what a household notebook can consist of:
.
.
.
.
Less of Me-More of Him
The Virtuous Woman
(and ours, which will be posted as soon as I can find that little plug thingy for my digicamera!)
.
.
.
I am seeking counsel in HIS precious Word and will post both the notebook re-vamp as well as my thoughts and future concerning these things...
