Let’s be real—Mother’s Day doesn’t always look like the Pinterest-perfect snapshots we see online.
Some years it’s breakfast in bed with soggy toast. Other years it’s a “relaxing” day that still involves cooking, cleaning, or playing hostess. And sometimes… it’s a quietly aching heart wishing someone would just ask what you really want.

I’ve been there. That’s why I created something special to encourage moms this year:
👉 A FREE printable devotional called “What Mom Really Wants.” 🎉
Whether you’re celebrating with toddlers or teens, with grown kids or in the thick of diapers and laundry, this one-page devotional is a sweet reminder that you are seen, known, and deeply loved—by your family and your Heavenly Father.
🌸 Inside the Devotional, You’ll Find:
-
A Scripture-based reflection on motherhood
-
A simple but powerful prayer
-
Journaling prompts to help you pause and process
-
A heartfelt invitation to let go of perfection and receive grace instead
🎧 Plus: A Podcast Episode That Tells the Truth
We’re pairing the devotional with one of our favorite episodes from the Vintage Homeschool Moms podcast:
“Mother’s Day Gifts – What Mom Really Wants”
In this episode, Felice Gerwitz shares funny, honest stories from her own motherhood journey—everything from sleep-deprived chaos to the awkward flower delivery that changed how she handled Mother’s Day forever.
If you’ve ever felt unseen or exhausted on a holiday that’s supposed to celebrate you… this one’s for you. 💗
