Hi, I’m Deborah!
I am a stay-at-home, home schooling mom in Western Montana.
I am a self-help junkie and a minimalist - even if only in my mind. I love learning different ways to think and relate to people, all filtered through the love of Christ.
I am writing for my own journey to become more intentional with my time, my words, and my relationships with people and with things. This blog is my way of fighting against my own perfectionistic tendencies by finally launching after dreaming about it for so long.
I am wife to Jeff, since 2013. We have three beautiful children, ages 5, 3, and 1.
I hope you’ll follow along in my journey of Keeping Home Simple!
