Welcome to one more LITTLE thing! I’m your super-mom host, Jill Remijn. Super mom? Yes, that’s what I hear daily, everywhere I go. But really, I have no clue what that means. I’m just a mom who desperately wants her family happy, her house clean, her menu to be healthy (and good), and her laundry done. Is that too much to ask? Does that make me any different from you? Well, it may because you may be drowning. You may be wondering how you can do all these things and stay sane. I’m here, writing this blog, to prove you CAN do it. You CAN conquer this life you lead, and more than anything, you have no choice. Either you do or you drown!
MY LIFE
I’m a crazy-busy (emphasis on CRAZY) mama of six who helps her husband run a landscape business on the side. My husband is a hard-working successful business owner who is also a volunteer firefighter. He works hard to help our community and run our business which often means I am left alone with our six kids for long days. While I am not complaining, I just want you to know I have six young children and run our home many times a week on my own. I appreciate very much the hard work and dedication that my husband has, and it drives me to make our home a happy, healthy, and clean place to be!
We have both lived on the west side of Michigan our entire lives and currently reside in Ada with our six children, Liberty (9), Carter (8), Kennedy (7), McKinley (5), Lincoln (3), and Quincy (1 1/2). Notice anything about those names?? Yup, they are all presidents. We have had fun keeping that tradition going!
I do not homeschool, but I do lots of side jobs to help support our family whenever I can. And I also try my very best to conquer all those daily life mama tasks that at first I hated! Not anymore, though. Now I have specific ways that I keep up on laundry, keep my house clean, and have warm healthy meals every night! I want to share these things with you, because you too can be the super mom everyone aspires to be.
C’mon in and join us for the wild ride as we welcome you into our home and lives.
HOW DO YOU DO IT ALL??
As I pondered how I “do it all” without feeling anxious or stressed about it (mostly), I realized it’s because I’ve found ways to conquer all I do. When I see something that is causing me to drown, I think about how I can conquer the task. Usually, this is by simplifying the tasks that don’t run well in my life and making them into planned weekly or daily events.
I don’t think I do anything special, so this blog is my way of showing you that you can definitely do it all too. The exact reason why I started this blog is to help you stop dreaming of being super mom and instead, find an easy way to earn the super-mom title.

Last, I hope to share some of the fun things I make and sell!
