đĄ Key Takeaways:
⨠Harvest is predictably unpredictable. Breakdowns, weather threats, and schedule shifts are part of the deal. The key is to roll with it and find your rhythm.
⨠Lean into what works for your family. Whether it's pivoting your homeschool curriculum or finding ways to be present at your child's school, there's no one-size-fits-all approach to parenting.
⨠Simple things bring the most joy. A good meal, a quick workout, a funny kid moment, or a healthy treat can be the small wins that get you through a demanding season.
⨠Everyone is fighting an unseen battle. Leading with kindness, grace, and compassion is more important than ever.
⨠Take it one step at a time. When life feels overwhelming, focus on the next small step. God is close to the brokenhearted and will give you the strength you need for each moment.
