Dear fellow mama,

In the beautiful confetti flying chaos of raising a family, it is easy to lose sight of the bigger picture that supports and knits your dreams and ideals together with your current reality. Managing multiple daily commitments, activities, social events, plans and relationships under one household can be an extremely demanding and overwhelming responsibility.

In the midst of all the hustle and bustle of moving from room to room, and in and out of the front door, it can honestly feel like I am living in a whirlwind with no idea where everyone will eventually land. Pausing to think or remember what is driving our family is far and few between, but its the most important checker in determining whether we are in or out of focus for our life goals.

An anchor for our busy days

One thing that has been a helpful anchor in the busyness of motherhood is our family mission statement. We created and still revisit our statement to clarify our why, because we are very big on living with intent and in purpose. It has helped me to move with efficiency when it comes to running my home, and making decisions that serve my family well.

This document that you work on (and keep updating) is such an impactful declaration that helps to shape and give a visual of how you want to live out your days. It clarifies direction, purpose, focus, values, beliefs, identity and motivation. It’s a great way to hold us accountable and remind us of the good and the big in the difficult moments and seasons.

Have you ever considered what values and principles guide your family’s journey?

Introducing the Family Path Mission Statement Printable! A powerful tool created to help you dream, define and express your family’s core beliefs, goals, and aspirations! Created by me, a fellow mum, it was important for me to share something that helps you to reflect on what matters to you most so that you can get to work building the best home that you possibly can.

Why do I need a Family Path Mission Statement?

1. For clarity, intention and purpose: Stan (my husband) always refers to us needing a true north, meaning a core centre that always pulls us back to the things that are the true foundation of our lives: Our faith in Jesus, our character and our work. Having a family statement helps to give clarity to our busy busy days and calendars. We can take control and create a roadmap that is filled with intentionality and purpose!
2. It knits hearts together: Although I am much of an introvert, I am also a big team player. I want my team to reach success and I want my home to be filled with minds and hearts that are one. We need a common vision that lights our souls, and creates a a kind of safety for us to grow and become. God sets the blueprint for us and gives us the room to build together which is a privilege I don’t take lightly.
3. It helps with process of elimination: In our busy household, I feel like I blink and our calendar for the month is already full! The schedules, activities and socials can at times be mind spinning. In the midst of this, having a mission statement to refer to helps us to know what to accept and what to choose our absence from. For me, it has helped me to be efficient in running my household because if it isn’t in or near our plans, we don’t need to spend time or energy on it!
