Fighting the Fear This New Year!!!

January 31, 2017 by CaMarie Hoffman Leave a Comment

For any of you that are fighting fear this new year:  I sat down in church this New Year's Day morning and read the program I had just been handed: "Be of good cheer, your future is as bright as your faith!"  It was EXACTLY what I needed to be reminded of this morning.  As a mother, I sometimes start to worry and wonder and feel concerned about what's going on in my Continue Reading

Tips on Potty Training from a Mother of Ten

July 14, 2015 by CaMarie Hoffman 6 Comments

So.... I was terrified.  Me? Mother of 10? Should be old-hat by now, yes? But here it was... time to potty-train.  I had avoided it, ignored it, waited, watched, and wondered about it, but now it just HAD to be done. Sarah had started taking off her own diapers, they both told me when they went in their diaper now (didn't like it and wanted it off), and worst of all today of all days Addie Continue Reading

My husband and I took a trip just a month or so ago and my usual frustration with security came up as they scanned me like a criminal.  It reminded me of the times I've been 'assaulted' at airport security before, always it seems with 5-10 little children in tow and at least half of the time traveling by myself with them, once I even had to nurse a baby while waiting in security - and being Continue Reading

The After-School Routine

April 10, 2015 by CaMarie Hoffman 15 Comments

After 20 years of parenting, now 10 children, we've learned a little about the great importance of the after-school routine! Two years ago we were at our high, 8 children in school from preschool to senior year, with the challenge of new-born twins. I've held this teaching close to my heart as a guide and I have found it to be a fantastic strategy to parenting, it is from a list of 10 ways moms Continue Reading

An Incredible Easter Weekend

twin girls share quiet book during General Conference

Just being TOGETHER! I LOVE that part! The best part of that part is that we were very much spread out, not only was our oldest son, Isaac, in Argentina, and our twin daughters, Emily and Anna, in Utah, but our extended families were far away as well.  We were far apart in miles but TOGETHER in heart as we celebrated Easter and listened to General Conference this weekend!
