Simply Grace

Let me start by saying this. This blog is called Simply Grace for a reason. It is SIMPLY GODS GRACE that has allowed me to come to this place I am today. I'm learning to live a simple life and be happy with what he has given me. This blog was created for a few reasons but you will see a pattern that most everything I post is in some way is  inspired by the birth of my son Jude. Before Jude came along I had no problem with our "eco/frugal/family" status.  Once I held that precious little guy in my hands that all changed. I went into fierce mommy protection mode. Jude was born on 10.10.12 and I had to go back to work 01.02.13. I went back to work and then my husband and I quickly decided that the home was the place I should be. Now saying this PLEASE do not think I'm judging ANYONE who chooses to not stay home or cannot stay home.  We are by NO means rolling in the dough. We made this decision knowing it would be a major lifestyle change. No more eating out, weekly trips to target( that's the heart breaker right there!). But in our personal life having me home and having Jude in his family unit 24/7 was what we though was best for us. So my last day of work was 01.18.13.  This being said I am slowly learning to live a frugal lifestyle. I'm also learning in doing so we can do things alot healthier for our family.  Little things like switching to an all purpose cleaning recipe insted of buying my cleaners( I'm a CLEAN momma so I go through alot very fast) can save me TONs of money. So that's what this blog is for. When I find things to help save money, make our lives more eco/chemical fee while doing so, and anything and everything in between. I wanted to have a place to post it for myself so I can always come back, but also to share with anyone who wants to use it. So be sure to check back often for updates.
