Delighted Motherhood

Summer Routines, Goals, and Travel Tips | Meredith Hammer

Kira Nelson

For many of us summertime is a blissful welcome. Schedules are relaxed, sports are mostly over, and there’s a lot more free time. But sometimes that lack of structure can feel really daunting! “What exactly am I supposed to do with these wild little humans?”

Listen in for encouragement from Meredith Hammer, mom of eight, to soak up this slow season of summer through thoughtful schedules, low-pressure adventures, and intentional family time. 

This episode covers:

  • Chores
  • Routines 
  • Kid dates 
  • Devotionals 
  • Air Travel Tips 
  • Including Daddy (even when he's busy)
  • Prioritizing Marriage 

I think you’ll come away encouraged to play in the sun, read good books, sleep well, roast marshmallows, catch crabs, have good conversations with friends and grow in our wonder of God. 

Note: I really love Meredith! She had a big impact on my early mothering journey!! <3

Meredith Hammer is a follower of Jesus who finds great joy in the calling He has placed on her life as the mother of eight children—four boys and four girls—ranging in age from 13 to 7-month-old twins.  Meredith was born and raised in coastal Virginia and North Carolina, but since marrying Stephen almost fifteen years ago, she has made her home in seven states and two countries.  After learning much about living a transient life with a lot of little ones for the first decade of their marriage, she is now enjoying raising their family in Stephen's hometown of Dallas, Texas.  Meredith loves to encourage other moms in finding the rhythms that help them to thrive in the calling of motherhood.
