Latte and Laundry: A home for Catholic women, moms, and hearts + encouragement for your mighty motherhood
Catholic mom, Catholic women, and ALL friends seeking God- WELCOME! This is a podcast designed to provide my fellow sisters in Christ with encouragement and support for the beautiful and difficult journey of living out our vocations. Truth is that motherhood, marriage, and living out our feminine genius are incredibly hard endeavors. Yet, through the perseverance of pursuing all that is good, true, and beautiful we are tenderly being transformed into vessels of God's love, one tiny dish, meeting, or dirty diaper at a time.
So, join me, Suzanne - homeschooling momma of 6, every week as we journey together with a Mary & Martha mission towards "stilling our souls WHILE moving our world." Together, let's sit at the feet of Christ like Mary, while moving with the gusto and strength of Martha! Join me and my friends as we laugh, cry, dive deep, and explore with one another as navigate wifehood, motherhood, and sisterhood with our eyes on Christ.
Let us encourage you in your mighty and holy work of motherhood and wifehood!

231. To the Educating Momma (Not just for homeschoolers!)
“ For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the Lord, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.” Jeremiah 29:11.
This week I speak to the educating momma heart. Whether your children attend a public school, private school, or are homeschooled, we, parents, are the first educators of our children. The Catechism of the Catholic Church says "Parents have the first responsibility for the education of their children. They bear witness to this responsibility first by creating a home where tenderness, forgiveness, respect, fidelity, and disinterested service are the rule."
The world consistently distracts our kingdom-set hearts with the values of our culture. Fear sets in, and we begin to make idols of our children's success. How's their math, their reading, their scores? And though we want our children to be resourceful, articulate, and critical thinkers, we must remember that educating them in virtue and character is the primary goal of our own schools of love!
