hi friends welcome to Motherhood and
0:03
homemaking I hope that you guys are
0:04
ready for some laundry motivation
0:06
because I have a lot of it so if you
0:08
have a ton of laundry too go ahead and
0:11
grab that basket and pull it on up so
0:13
that we can do a laundry reset together
0:16
and get ourselves ready for the week if
0:19
you're are new here my name is heaven
0:20
I'm a motherhead and homemaking vlogger
0:22
sharing helpful inspirational relatable
0:25
and realistic home organization cleaning
0:28
videos homeschool content shopping hauls
0:31
grocery hauls all of the things so I
0:34
would love for you to subscribe and join
0:36
our little family but for now let's talk
0:38
a little bit about the past month so for
0:42
the past four weeks I dove into a simple
0:45
living and minimalism decluttering 30
0:48
days to a peaceful home in heart
0:49
challenge every week I did things that I
0:53
felt would contribute to me simplifying
0:56
my life simplifying my home and my mind
0:59
for the betterment of the entire family
1:02
and so now that we have completed that I
1:04
felt that it was time and very much
1:07
needed for us to slow down a little bit
1:09
and do a little bit of reflection
1:11
honestly I feel like it has been
1:13
lifechanging and I know that 4 weeks
1:15
does not equate to the years of clutter
1:19
and mindset that I had been in already
1:21
for so long but I do think that it is a
1:24
huge start it definitely showed me areas
1:26
where I need improvements and it also
1:28
opened my eyes up to how simple living
1:31
can just make life a little bit easier
1:33
especially as a mom of two with one
1:36
being still a baby not even one year old
1:39
yet since doing that it has definitely
1:42
sparked a new interest for me and has
1:45
made me want to go a little bit more
1:47
minimal definitely not extreme minimal
1:50
but like cozy minimal I feel like it's a
1:52
full spectrum there are so many
1:53
different type of
1:54
minimalism families cozy minimal is more
1:57
so where you just want a nice Cozy home
2:01
without like a lot of things everywhere
2:03
and it's not for everyone and while I'm
2:06
still G to have things for my children
2:07
to do because the climate that we stay
2:09
in it's pretty cold 6 months out of the
2:12
year I can't just completely like throw
2:13
out all of his toys because then it's
2:15
like what am I going to replace it with
2:17
he needs something to do when we're
2:18
indoors and we can't really go outside
2:21
and play as much as we can in the
2:22
summertime so as much as I would love to
2:24
just have a couple of toys for him with
2:27
him just going outside to explore
2:29
natureal most days of the year that's
2:31
just not realistic for me but we have
2:32
decluttered a lot of his toys and very
2:36
soon I'm super excited to give you guys
2:38
a tour and show you guys like the
2:40
progress that I have been making four
2:42
weeks of which I tried to share that
2:44
with you guys as well so if you dove
2:46
into that challenge with me I would love
2:48
to hear how it has gone for you but
2:51
friend to friend Mom to Mom Homemaker
2:54
the Homemaker I wanted to just sit down
2:56
and have a little chat with you guys
2:57
we're phoning laundry we got to get that
2:59
done I got so much lry so I figured I'd
3:02
share that motivation with you guys but
3:03
I still wanted to chat with you guys see
3:05
how you guys are doing and just share
3:07
with you um how things are going for us
3:10
the goal here is that life is short
3:13
becoming a mom has changed me in so many
3:15
ways ever since I had my first son who
3:17
is going to be 6 years old and I feel
3:21
like time is flying as he gets older and
3:25
I just had my daughter like I feel like
3:27
I had her yesterday and she just turned
3:29
8 months today that I am doing this
3:31
voice over March the 9th she's 8 months
3:34
old and I just do not understand she's
3:37
going to be a year old in just four
3:39
short months and I don't know where time
3:41
is going so I have placed a very high
3:43
price tag on my time I feel like my time
3:46
is so much more valuable than anything
3:48
else in life it's more valuable than
3:50
money as to where there have been you
3:52
know seasons of life where I put so much
3:55
into just working while I love that the
3:58
work that I am leaning into now content
4:01
creation blogging and things like that
4:03
it does take a lot of work but the goal
4:04
is that the time that I put into that
4:06
will later on and like free up more of
4:09
my time for my children because I do
4:11
have a goal of having more kids later on
4:14
down the line but if everything is
4:17
always so hectic for me we have a small
4:19
village we're we're still trying to
4:21
build up our village and so you know we
4:23
aren't the family that sends our
4:25
children to their grandparents house
4:27
every single weekend or we don't even
4:29
send them off to school cuz we
4:30
homeschooled therefore we need things to
4:34
flow and work for us you know we need
4:36
things to be a little bit more simple
4:38
and having two children I want to really
4:41
have time for them I don't want to spend
4:43
my full days cleaning up my home or
4:46
working all day so I need to simplify my
4:49
schedule as much as possible and so I
4:51
had to ask myself which one did I value
4:53
more the possessions inside of my home
4:55
or my actual time my time is precious
4:58
and whatever I'm develing my time to
5:00
that time is being taken away from my
5:02
husband from my children um and for like
5:05
Precious Memories that we could be
5:07
making together and for me the
5:09
possessions just aren't as valuable if
5:11
ever there will come a time where I feel
5:13
like my children don't have enough toys
5:15
to occupy their time they have me they
5:18
have my husband and they have each other
5:20
to occupy their time which means there
5:22
are more opportunities for us to
5:24
entertain each other and so moving
5:27
forward the past for weeks of this
5:31
challenge have definitely encouraged me
5:34
to go a little bit more simple in life
5:37
and just slow down a little bit because
5:39
I think that that that is how it's
5:40
supposed to be we're not supposed to
5:42
have our mind just occupied with a
5:43
thousand things and for a long time I
5:45
feel like that was a trend it's like get
5:47
it all done and speed clean and I want
5:50
to slow down I think that my children
5:52
need it too so that we can really focus
5:56
on more things you know more intentional
6:00
without rushing through it so that is my
6:02
goal so for you know the next few weeks
6:05
that's what you guys are going to be
6:06
seeing reflected in my content a little
6:08
bit more minimalism a little bit more
6:10
simple living and I hope that you guys
6:11
are excited to dive into that Journey a
6:14
bit more with me past just what the last
6:16
30 days have entailed so that is what's
6:21
going to be coming up I'm going to be
6:23
doing a whole lot more decluttering and
6:26
simplifying my life in home so I just
6:29
wanted to check in with you guys and see
6:31
how you guys were doing and just share a
6:33
little bit with you guys where my mind
6:35
was at especially after what we have
6:38
